West Yorkshire, UK Meet-up - 1st April

Mar 19, 2007 7 Replies

Where? The Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Bretton, just off the M1, south of Wakefield.



Why? ... And it's a nice country park, family friendly, educational, good local pubs for lunch and perhaps a nice drive in the afternoon taking in a couple of West Yorkshire's famous landmarks:


See for more details.



I think we intend to meet after 10am, stay around until after lunchtime to allow any church go-ers, or stragglers to catch up and the take off for a drive mid afternoon ... Then home :)

Propose the event as educational and she'll agree :)

Congratulations for the day! Many happy years, I trust.

Any tunnels?!? ;-))

You will be bringing the legendary Orca I take it?

Seriously, may be able to make it, but need to check with good lady. She is abandoning me on Saturday to go on a girly trip up the Smoke so I think I should be able to swing the morning at least!!

(To anyone considering this, don't consider it......... just do it, I thoroughly enjoyed the last one and can recommend the company)

There's a couple of bridges that go under the M1 :) Actually, you must have inspected them at some point?

I will ... Still no velvet headliner, though ... I really need to pull my finger out. I will try to get the wheels swapped over for my Imperial Stormtrooper Super Incas :)

Hope so ...

Final call for the West Yorkshire SAAB Meet-Up. We'll be meeting today at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park from 10AM. Lunch will be held at the West Bretton Institute and a tour of the local landmarks will take place in the afternoon.

All welcome ...

Bring your own lunch, some outdoor clothes and have a full tank of petrol (or diseasel if your car is so inclined) :)

Pah sorry I can't make it any more. I should have said when I found out last weekend I'm on duty today.

Besides, petrol is thin, weany stuff, there's nothing like sniffing your diesel-stained fingers after a fill up... :o)

So!

How did it go?

Any good pictures?
