June meet this Wednesday 14th. The ribena machine will be making a rare appearance. 8pm at the Gyle centre as usual? - unless any Edinbuggers fancy meeting up before that for a wee drive?

Just back from Greece hence the no show last night at Bo'ness. You'll maybe hear me driving in and around Edinburgh or we could always meet up in a country pub some evening now that summer has come

Some pics from Wednesday nights meet. 2 M100s and a nice looking sprint, albeit with an owner that didn't quite appreciate the 'modern' elans he was parking next to. :roll:

Excellent photo`s, the sprint looks great but some people are just stuck in there ways :roll:

That's typical of the Elan "oldies" in Club Lotus. When I was at the Jim Clark memorial meet at Duns last month a couple of "oldies" came up and kicked my tyres and I overheard them saying "nice car - but it'll never be a classic Lotus"

What ??? Get a life !!!!!

some of the old chaps are trossers which made it all the better that Andrew Ennis won the concours at Callander.

Whilst you chaps were at Boness I was watching Audi R10's doing 220mph up the LM pit straight

Will be at Boness next month. 12 July.

I'll be there. I'll be at the Gyle for 8pm to pick up the usual convoy of RichyP and BigErch if they're going.

I was hoping to meet up earlier for a change so we could go for a wee drive and down a decent beer. Unfortunately it's my zak & Josh's birthday so that rules out an early start. I'll see if i can sneak away to meet u at the gyle.
This will be my last Boness night as we're moving up North in August. Hopefully John and Andrew have frequent get togethers as I'll be not too far away in Ballatar.
Whoose going to Kockhill for the speed day?

Ballater - blimey Archie, you'll be telling me you're taking up sheep shaggin' for a living next !! http://www.partyworks.co.uk/inflatables/p_lovemeew.htm

I've heard that JohnW does a good BBQ but none of us Edinburgers have ever been invited.

See you and Alan at Bo'ness and perhaps we can arrange a joint meet in Braemar in the Autumn ??

I will be there this Wed with Henry is his "new" calypso. Leaving Glasgow at 7.15 for eta 8, so if you guys can get there a bit earlier all the better. Hopefully it will be bright and dry and can do a bit of car park tyre kicking.

Stevo - 7.15 outside Curry's at Morrisons Anniesland if you can make it.

by **RichyP** » Mon 10.07.2006, 13:26

Cars off the road at the moment with radiator problems :smt090

, but if anyone has a free shotgun seat i'll come along.... not far from Haymarket Mark. hint hint!!

Rich

by **Rambo** » Mon 10.07.2006, 13:53

Rich,

PM me your address/phone number and I'll see what I can do. My course finishes at Scot. Ent. at 20:00 so will head out to Bo'ness direct from Haymarket - assuming I can get my dipped headlights working again. Otherwise I'll be in a Ford Fockus

Alternatively you could always try a hitch from Alan or Archie who I think are meeting at the Gyle at 2000.

That's no problem for me. I've sent Rich a text to call me if he needs picked up.

by **Rambo** » Mon 10.07.2006, 20:42

Take it easy with Scott ??!! You'll be red lining it all the way there and back particularly if you come across a Sprint !!

by **philhecht** » Tue 11.07.2006, 16:55

Can't make it tomorrow night gents I'm afraid - got a very important 11-a-side match to play in!

Cue "you should get your priorities right" chat...
