Proposed Very far South GTG

[Maff]

Third or forth week in July would be best for me, but i'll try and go with the flow. Got a 2600 mile round trip to Europe drive on the first and second week of July.

A trip to the south coast ??

Get the date right and confirmed and count me in. 600 mile round trips are what Mercs were built for.

John, I hope you took out the extended warranty on the kettle.

Oh and 6 parking spaces wont cut it either, might need 26 to 36 by the looks of things :bannana:

Six is a very conservative estimate , but twenty might present a challenge No one usually parks their cars on the road so parking will not be a problem. Navigational skills on the other hand!!!!!

I would be up for that if I can find the petrol vouchers. Is there anywhere nearby to camp, I have a spare tent if required ( i promise not to laugh as you put it up ..... he lies). Hopefully there will be a nice drop of cider to had locally or some other type of falling down fluid. Does anyone have anything against the Aug bank holiday weekend if mutually agreeable. We could see if Pammys car floats ........ I mean it is the right colour for a battleship (GREY PRIMER).

Sorry Ian and John, I am driving to Copenhagen that weekend for a Holiday.

 

[Maff]

I'll be in Vienna that weekend with the car, but wish you all the best and look forward to the pictures!!

Sorry for OT -

Considering driving to Vienna myself and possibly beyond - let me know how you get on, what stops and route you take please!

 

[glojo]

I'll be in Vienna that weekend with the car, but wish you all the best and look forward to the pictures!!

I was considering only allowing 'coloured' cars into our drive and making 'grey primer' cars park in the road, but then I thought theire might be a chance of a certain CL55AMG arriving!!!!!!

hmmmmm Apartheid still active in South Devon!! Best not go down that avenue.

I am so sorry that you are not able to attend, but I have my fingers firmly crossed that it is going to be a successful occassion and hopefully we will have a few pictures.

Regards,
John

John - I'm so sorry but I can't make that weekend. I've told Ian. I hope you have a lovely time, would have loved to have been able to make it

 

[GRAV888]

If people are interested, I have the phone number of a good campsite in beautiful Brixham.
I am planning on going there the week before and having a few days fishing / drinking scrumpy
Why don't we make this a weekend to remember :bannana:

Ray and Therese.

I couldn't help but notice when you picked the date several people were unable to make it, if you have any thoughts to move it, I can probably make any weekend in July except the 9th/10th.
Might I suggest a poll to see what weekend would get the biggest turn out, if we're going to see John as a club we should have as many members as possible.

Sorry for trying to take over your street John.

Be good to see everyone again

Hmm Its very difficult trying to select a suitable weekend. I am and so is John, flexible. Ray has a good idea so lets throw the date issue open to peoples availability and preferences. 15 / 40, new balls please

 

[pammy]

16/17th would mean we could go.

 

[GRAV888]

A poll sounds a good idea mate.

 

[Pietre]

Pamy, can we see if your car floats if you come down to the sunny south? I mean it is the right colour for the Grey Funnel Line (Navy).
