COVENTRY TRANSPORT MUSEUM - SATURDAY 12th APRIL 2014

Postby dhdove » Tue Jan 07, 2014 1:54 pm

Hi all

So next up is the above outing to this excellent museum.

http://www.transport-museum.com/

We will be parking in front of the museum on Millenium Place. EARLIEST arrival 10.00 am. I suggest you aim for 10.30. We must vacate by 4.30pm.

This is only three months away so a rapid confirmation of numbers would be much appreciated.

Best Regards
TonyS.

What a small world, I'll be there on Sunday the 13th April in my other car with the XR Owners Club. Shame really as I'd probably have joined you, but two days running wouldn't get passed my wife :lol:

Hi

Yes, put me down for it. It will be a good run in the XJS!!

Been before with my XJ12 parked up out the front. The museum insisted on drip trays to catch oil leaks. The museum is free and its ok in my opinion, not great but ok.

Regards

Simon

Hi Tony,
Count me in please.

This will take some juggling and I may have to attend solo as my daughter Kate has a commitment on Saturday mornings and that evening we are off to a concert but that is workable. Typical!.

Looking forward to it, thanks for organising.
Keith.

Hi Tony

Hope all is well with yourself and Libby.

That will be a good trip. Please put Myself Philip and Ruby down for that. It will be a good
excuse to give the old rust bucket a run.

Cheers

Phil

Hi Tony,

Mmm - looks like I'm on call-out that weekend for work :cry:

Unless I can persuade a call-out swap, it's doubtful that I can make it.

Sorry....

I hope that you all have a good visit!

Hello Tony and All.

It has been a while but can you put me down to come plus passenger.
This is one venue that I have wanted to visit for some time now.

Best Regards Mark.

OK
So two months to go and I make it as follows (please correct me if I'm wrong!)

Me and Libs
Brake Buster
Simont485
David and Christine
Ktclm06
Charlie5, Ruby and Philip
Jaguar Mike
Mark Pearson +1

I make that eight cars and thirteen people?

Please, if you haven't registered to support this event do so very soon. Whilst I will not cancel it's a pretty poor turnout isn't it?

Drive an XJS each and double your presence....... :D

I'm just a little disappointed as so many people have said they want to visit this venue.......I know the date restricts some of us but we do have an awful lot of XjS BB members. Eight cars is really not many.......Ho-Hum. (And one of them is my new Merc SLK, 2010 Calcite White Sportspack.......)
