I might have to give this meet a miss.
I'm trying to hold on to my pennies at the minute, got my car in the bodyshop at the end of the month & i'm currently going though with a house purchase (my first place).
It's going to be an expensive month.

Yeah meet at the Darleston inn (ST15 0PX) about 11.00
then go for a drive including some dual carriage ways, a tunnel, and a few good b roads ending up at the Jervis Arms at Onecote (ST13 7RU) to grab a bite to eat.

What do you think?

Looking forward to the meet

This sounds excellent.

Is the Jervis arms the one with the stream outside with the foot bridge over it? (the one where you head from Leek > Ashbourne, and take the left at the crossroads where that other pub (the Green Man I think it is?) is on the corner?

If so I just hope it's not too busy when we arrive, because car parking can get limited very quickly if it's the pub I'm thinking of - and again from memory, it's down a country lane where alternative parking isn't the easiest to find.

Not trying to put a dampener on the idea though, it's a cracking route and hopefully we'll be lucky when we get there \:\)

I've just spoken to Paul at Motormech, and he says my car should be ready by the weekend, so fingers crossed all will be well. There is however a slight chance it won't be ready, so what I was going t ask is.. would somebody who is a definite for this be kind enough to PM me their mobile number please? I imagine it'll be a bit last minute when I find ouf if I can get the car or not, and if it's bad news at least I'll be able to let you guys know I won't be there, to save you waiting un-necessarily.

However things are looking okay atm so I should be there \:\)

It looks like I won't be able to make it this weekend °\(
There's a pretty strong chance that I'll be on a plane to Islamabad on Sunday \:o

I was really looking forward to meeting up with a few new and a few old faces, as well. Hope you all have a good one \:\)
