Hi All,
Sorry I`ve been offline for a while,but I still have been remotely monitoring the threads. Yes It was me that originally suggested a meet at my Transport Cafe in South Devon. I can help to organise Bed & Breakfasts bookings or places to `eat and meet` that has plenty of parking etc. No problem,just give me a date a the go ahead. I originally suggested May Bank Holiday but that is now gone. I see that others want to go to museums and Goodwood etc. ,thats fine by me. I`m happy to go wherever the majority wants. Keep me updated.

Rich,

Check out the UK meeting thread. We have 6 or more people travelling. Dates set for weekend of 7-8-9 June.

With people travelling long distances, we will probably meet Saturday afternoon, do a meal Sat night, and disband Sunday, unless we have a tour or trip organised locally that suits the owners.

Looking forward to it immensely.

Joe
