Yeah would be nice to see some of u guys up there,



I'm travelling 200+ miles, so you lot can as well :)



Ronny


Like me :) Unfortunately its my best mates 21st so i'll be in attendence there, sorry, pass on my best to the lad. Also, i could never afford the petrol to drive there (really, ridiculously skint now....).

Same here. Currently thinking about collecting all the coppers in my bedroom to see if I can put some petrol in the car. I've even been managing nearly

39mpg (!). Anyway, I'm not so sure my Ka counts as modified, unless a pair of extra speakers is your thing :P. Good luck to the lad.

Chester.

The Belgians are coming through the Chunnel tonight, sleeping in the car when they get to the carpark, and doing the cruise unwashed :)

Typical Belgians.

Very short notice - other commitments unfortunately or would have been there with S60, performance meter (I know...) and Bel 990 all armed and ready to go. Having a kid with a short life expectancy myself do send my regards

yahey! Chips with Mayo for lunch, chocloate for dessert...

It's on the first Sunday of every month - ie. next Sunday 7th. Look for a B&W Chevy cop car!

Gareth

SHOW OF HANDS???

so who's going???

I think I can do it now!!! Not going if none of the regs are going because I've not got a modded car :( Trying to borrow a mate and his audi :)

Tim

any thoughts as to how we all identify ourselves.... mine'll be the very normal looking silver volvo, hopefully parked to the very normal looking blue RS4, and the very normal looking silver Leon

Straight run along the M4? Ellesmere Port? You confusing it with somewhere in South Wales?

Peter

along the M4 turn left at the M5 and it's there isn't it?

Turn RIGHT carry on to M6 turn LEFT at M56

I think you're thinking of Portishead...

Me, look for a slightly rough looking Saab, probably with a Skoda Fabia (Mate coming over from York), and a Red Honda Civic (Mate from Leigh who doesn't know the way) nearby.

Yep, looks like I'm leading a Convoy from Warrington.

Cooll Dervman should be coming - look for a green Ka with "dervman" stickers / plates

Good s*it.

All those in favour, say 'Aye'

-- JackH

that'll be the one then :) still can't make it though :(

MeatballTurbo waffled on in a quite bewildering manner to produce...

I'll be there in my trusty old Golf.. ( dirty, left hand drive, silver, big fat ginger bloke with hangover driving )

Go on, this will be a once in a lifetime.
