Great - in that case I should be able to make 18.30 too.

I'll definitely be eating there.

Are you travelling down from Wilmslow on the night - or somewhere else?

From Wilmslow on the night.

I'll be eating there too. I always get hungry after someone buys the first drink.

I always get hungry when someone else is buying the food!!

So, that's a pint of lager for me and a packet of quavers for you.

Done deal.

 

[ringway]

I think it'll be steak and chips for me.


Here is the menu.

FYI Thursday night is curry night.

We still all up for it?

The R107 is having some cosmetics done, the yellow W123 is having serious welding work done, the widebody currently has no left hand head on its engine so that leaves a choice of my new W123, the 500E or the 560 SEC... now it depends on the weather as if its raining it rules out the 560 due to the shiny wheels..

The A5 has lots of camera so let me think... 185bhp or 326.... yep will have to be the 500E.

I've got no choice. I'm meeting Nick to get my control unit for my central locking etc.. Then I can lock my car.

 

[Bobby Dazzler]

All being well I should be there.

I've got a pass for the evening so i'll be coming straight from work in Buckingham, should be there by 6.30ish... traffic dependant.

 

[SilverSaloon]

Please take some photos!

 

[corned]

We will - if you promise not to call it a pilgrimage...

 

[bigyin1]

Sorry change of plan, I need to take a development car home so won't have my MB and as such can't make it i'm afraid.

Nice to meet you guys and catch up on some goss... till the next one

What ?! no pics ?

 

[Bobby Dazzler]

A great evening, a pleasure to meet friends old and new.

Timskemp didn't make it - hopefully all is well.

Incredible that 50% of us were from out the area this time.

We though we had a gategrasher - a lovely blue R129 SL with Brabus style alloys - but alas not.

Photos to follow - the others took a few which I'm sure they'll post soon.

Thanks again gents...

 

[ringway]

Yep, a great evening and a great place for a GTG.

I was nice to meet up again and put faces to names for SEM and Nick.

Thanks to Nick for the control unit.

I'll post some pics when I can get them out of my new phone.

Cheers Guys.
