Taff was at my debut at Islip (Woolpack or Wheatseaf) with you, Stef, Gary, Phil John, and me, ( plus Dico of course!). 6 Elans and 1 Scania. Stef posted a photo after but I cant find it!

Nige was at the one where Stef brought the PH crew (TVRs, Ferrarri and NMY Elise) - The Fox - you, me, Gary, Stef, Nige (plus Dico of course!). 5+1.


The other meet at Islip was you, me, Gary,Stef, Andy, Andy & I think Humph (plus Dico of course!!). 6 maybe 7 Elans and 1 Scania.

Elton has been max 6 each time I think.

We could at least do several laps of the A1 roundabout to slow everyone down a bit.

Ah... Hi all! :roll:

Sorry, been off the scene agian for a while. Still, things are looking up as I hope to make a job choice tomorrow!

Shame I missed you all, this month has flown by and I have been losing track of date and day too easily. Sounds like a good turnout and great to hear of new members!

So when is the next meet planned?! :)

Well on the good side I should be starting a new job on Monday! :D

Bad (but good for me) I should be on holiday that week.

I shall endevor to catch up with you all soon. Blipi will hopefully have some work done on her this year, possibly even give her turbo a check out. With an impending boring mobile purchase she'll get a bit of a rest!

Cheers.

Big life change as I'll be working in Peterborough with Cambridge one day a week so lots of travel. The Tiv has got to go :cry: I can't have 3 cars 2 of which only being weekend fun cars. TVR dream was achieved at least.

Still, on the savings front I guess I'd better start squirreling away lots of dosh to achieve my other dream car - LAMBO! :D Think that will be staying a dream...
