Well we just live up there - don't speak the lingo (thankfully! though no disrespect to proper jocks :) ) So I'm sure we'll be fine!

That's awfully kind of you Stef - thanks very much for the offer :D However we are staying in Solihull until the weekend when we convoy back up the road, so we'll be ok.

Callander Classic?? Hadn't even heard of it until I looked it up - sounds like a hoot though.. I can't really pass up the opportunity of something like that happening in Scotland for a change but I gotta check the ol' diary..

Good to see you both! Reds ruled! 8)

Ashby Folville will probably be very busy again so best get their early (around 7) and be prepred to wait getting in and out.

Well worth checking out though.

Yep, at 6:30 we were amongst the last to get into the 'proper' field.

How about 28th August for the next meeting, perhaps at the Elton Pub again ???

Could just see the add.......100,000mls, 1 owner from new, or should that read service ?. Preventative maintenance, thats whats needed !

I will make the 29th mate, although not sure at this minute what in, as theve found quite a bit of unforeseen damage at bodyshop today, should be ok though ?
