Following on from Webbo's post, he has asked me to pick up the reigns on this one, due to the decided location, its a bit out of Webbo's way. So the date will be Sunday July 27th and the venue is the Grasshopper Inn in Kent. It's very close to the M25 as this map of the area shows. We can meet in the car park from 11.30 onwards. The pub does a rather nice carvery roast and can accomodate all of us, plus more. Non FCCUK members are welcome, as are partners, children and pets. Here is last years meet. I have locked the previous post by Webbo and started this one, with the actual date and venue, so carry on dropping your name down if you fancy it... So far:Anthony DanDan Barnacle JimO SimonJ MrC PeteP Neal Ghost Pfoe Barmybob Kenno (Swapsies again?!?) Danirv Bockers CEG24 Nicboy Vickster Gaz Nismo Truffle Insy The more the merrier...

Without knowing the details, Anthony, if this follows previous meets, it's not a club do, just an owner's get-together. There will probably be a short run where speed limits will be scrupulously enforced (yeah right ) and afterwards I rather suspect that bonnets may be opened. They do tend to be rather informal events.

We tend to meet at 11.30 in the car park, normally a few weeks before hand, people start to organise a drive / convoy to get there, so look out for them and join one of them if you like. We stand around for an hour or so - rain or shine, kick tyres, lift bonnets, talk cars, etc. Then go for some grub, the return out to the cars and repeat the first part. People start to drift off from 3/4 ish And thats pretty much it in a nutshell.... Obviously their is one tradition you have to follow, being a newbie as you are, and thats buy the organiser a beer and lunch

It is the same day, but that's just unfortunate. The majority of people who responded to the poll chose that day.
TOTB does not float everyones boat, but those who want to go to it will.

Yeah I should be up for this. JimO - Would love to swap but the car's STILL not sorted AND i've got a slightly bigger turbo in it now so my fuel map will be out. Thus can't run more than a bar of boost. Prepare for the smoke screen again.

Can't make this - real shame but have booked a driving trip (with/versus an S2000 and a Morgan Aero 8) to North Wales that weekend. Hope it's a good meet with better weather than last year

Well we've had French and Czec cars appear last time, so a second German won't hurt assuming Vicks comes along too.
Be interested to see the new car.
