We'd prefer to eat earlier rather than later (if that's Ok?) and have a table (for four) booked for 7.30.
Meet in the bar 6.30 - 7.00?

UPDATE

Hotel Parking on Sunday

At the hotel follow the road around the outside of car park following signs for Reception.

We will be parked closeby the main Hotel Reception.

Tony - that's fine. See you later

[Brakebuster]

not wishing to mess anyone around ......even more.........

i will do my best to attend, i have been messing with the car all day ( also installed a new stereo ) , and she is running ' well ' for the moment

i will leave Gloucester around 9am , so if not there by the time you want to leave, i will be on the back of a recovery truck , lol


BB

[davidr]

Well done BB! That's the spirit!!
Fingers crossed for the morning!

That's great news, im sure the car will be fine, just thrash it through second so you get to third as fast as posible

Seriously, I think if you go out of Gloucester via Air Balloon roundabout then A436 and onto the Fosse Way at Bourton on the Water your round trip will be about 120 miles and it should only take you about an hour and a half to get here even if you "pootle" tho i suspect you will find that difficult , so you should be in good time.

I very much look forward to seeing you tomorrow as I'm sure does everyone else

if you meet problems give me a ring and we'll despatch a rescue party

Thank you all for all the kind messages, I am genuinely touched by your kindness and consideration.

Look forward to meeting you all at an event soon (planning to hit Donington Historic next weekend as my "Drive it Day" substitute!).

Will be thinking of you and hope you have a terrific day.

Great to see you all today and put faces to names. Also great to see your cars - quite an interesting mix I thought giving many things to talk about.

Tony and Libby - many thanks for your company last night. You did a wonderful job of organising this event and, as a result, we all had a very enjoyable day. Thanks very much.

Good to see you all and Christine and I look forward to meeting you all again soon.

Kind regards
David and Christine

Just wanted to add my thanks to the above. Great to meet everyone and their cars, and enjoyed Gaydon very much.

What better way to spend a Sunday...?

Cheers

I would echo all of the above. Great to meet folks and catch-up with others.

My thanks to Tony for organising this event; extremely well organised as always - thank you.

Although the diary is already filling-up with events, if there is still interest, I would like to organise another event for later this year. There is a separate thread running for ideas and suggestions; I would encourage all to contribute/review if you have not yet done so.

Best regards, Richard.

Yes, Joe and I thoroughly enjoyed the day aswell, although he didnt enjoy the long drive as much as me! Thought the museum was great for such a visit. Very nice to meet everyone and put faces to names. Also good to see the high standard all of your cars are kept in, as Im new to all this it has given me something to aspire to. Look forward to seeing you all at the next meet.
Thanks again.

Rich - maybe an idea to get Daniel some L plates for the next one?! Lol
