I don't know y'all nowadays but might come along subject to finding a Mrs c2d approved dog minder! Whats the score. Meet on Saturday and a drive around somewhere. Dinner at Robs place . Stay over somewhere? Mini meet Sunday morning for those who are up to it ? It's a busy week though. We are going to the Abu Dhabi GP the weekend before. Then Mrs c2d is going to Bath Christmas markets on Thursday then here on Saturday

Will be great to see everyone again, lets hope the weather stays reasonable for people's journeys. There's a great B+B 2 doors up from me which is literally a 4 minute walk to the restaurant, very friendly couple and have secure off-street parking if anyone is interested. http://www.howard-lodge.co.uk/Index.html
This is how it should have come out of Torino!

So I've a room booked However... I'm a Luddite. I don't have a mobile, snapface, tubebook or a youchat so since I'm also face blind I need a rendezvous else I would walk right past you. I'll tell the bar I'm there. You tell them "I'm looking for Jeff Forrester. What I need is a bar to do that at; and the moo bar was shut last time I checked... I'll buy you a drink if you meet me. That sounds fair? Unless Rob is OK with vagrants popping up his bar. Also What time is dinner? Not sure If I should go to my hotel bar or some place else so proper locals tell me what to do please! I can be emailed for this @ xmas2017@jackforrester.co.uk

Hi all,
If the party that is in before yours leave as expected, your table should be ready around 7.30. I'll keep Theresa up to date on the night.
As you can imagine, it can be pretty hectic on a December Saturday night and space is at a premium but there are however 4 bar stools that can be used if you want to hang around for a while.
Safe journey everyone
This is how it should have come out of Torino!

Due to previous parties altering their numbers and times, your table will now be available from 7pm so please feel free to come in from the cold and settle down for a blether and a few drinks before dinner.

But if you come in the Audi you have to park round the back and get a round in With the car now on its ugly winter wheels I'll probably park it miles away.

Congratulations Dave and Heather. Hope you are going to be introducing the laluns to the joy of spanering and the hard work involved. Building a first ride ETC. Too meany young-uns today have an "ebike" mentality. They expect to get to the top without the pedaling! Enough metaphors! I'm sure they will be brought up knowing the value of hard graft knowing you two! I remember when I went to one of these and there was an actual winter with actual snow but that was a long long time ago. Bet its double figures this year I think there are some people missing from the list that I owe a round to...

No worries Dave.
I make it 17, plus maybe Joe 18, so room for a couple more if needed.

Safe journey everyone. Don't think there's much in the way of bad weather forecast so the roads should be pretty clear for you all. Looking forward to seeing the clan back together.

Isn't this the first one in your new sprinty?
No, I went up in it last year Blimey, short term memory issue! Nothing that a good weekend of coupe hugging won't sort

Thanks to all who managed to make the annual pilgrimage all the way to Carlisle, from both ends of the UK. It's always an honour and a privilege to play host to you guys (and galls), and it's a pleasure knowing such a great bunch of genuine people. JeffUK; great speech, which I'm sure was echoed by everyone present. T, enjoy your new sprinty, complete with lacquer Neil, Anita, Brian and Pauline, thanks so much for the prezzies. Very generous and totally unexpected but gratefully received, I've had to stash the choccies from the Staff as they can smell them at 30yds! Safe journey home everyone and hope to see you all again at some time in the new year. On behalf of my staff and myself, I wish you all the very best for Christmas and the new year.

Wouldn't miss it for anything Rob, the extra mile you go to in feeding us is very much appreciated The coffee this morning was about the nicest I've ever had too and the "meet" no.2 a great chance to fill in some of the chat missed last night The young 'uns again jump at the chance to come and meet everyone, it's Kip's (Chris) 3rd dinner and my Ben's 5th! They are both made really welcome I flunked it after the dinner and went straight to the digs as I was knackered and full but they two managed it out till 2.30 spurred on no doubt by good company! Best to yourself and family Rob for the Christmas and NY period

Did I win the prize for the longest drive this year?
The bloody wires in the Cupra's window mechanism went ping on the motorway, half an hour from home: spent the first half hour sorting the alternator on the coupe and another hour getting the window to (hopefully) stay up. Och that's more than your share of bad luck Neil after all the other calamities this week And yes you win the prize, good effort Hope your woes get sorted soon....

Sorry we didn't make this guys. Regrettably we had a water leak that brought down the ceiling and left a proper mess in the house We usually like to tie up the Carlisle meet with a visit to see family in Yorkshire. Trish did get away on Sunday morning but yes we missed the meet and I've missed the whole trip
