somerset (and more??) meet ? - 12th Jan?

[morsemonkey]

damn and blast! can not make this one, off to sunny cornwall for my old mans 80th....

enjoy, hope the weather is clear and dry...

 

[Artemis]

well, looks like there might be six of us - eight if Hunter is on days!!!! :} :}


anymore fancy coffee,food and chat in the middle of nowhere???

Unfortunately, he's still on nights :bang:

We'll have to see what time he wakes up on Saturday now.

Keep your fingers crossed, he's going for an interview next Tuesday, maybe he'll get away from driving now and back to playing with aircraft...............

 

[Smix]

hopefully see you then.


and Hunter - LOADS AND LOADS OF GOOD LUCK FOR THE INTERVIEW!!! :k:k

 

[solorider]

i may be there,got to wait for my bike parts to turn up by courier,would have been ok earlier but they sent the wrong parts

 

[Smix]

Hey brill!! :yo:

We'll be there from 12 noon (don't think they are open before that :}) so see you there!

There's no snow here at the moment, so with luck there'll be no weather issues to stop us getting there :} :}

 

[Artemis]

Don't think we'll be making it, somehow. Himself just rang to say that with the weather he hasn't even got his first load yet and by now he should be on the second. He's got to go somewhere around Birmingham and the roads to the M5 are all bad. One of the drivers left 2 hours ago and hasn't gone more than 20 miles so far, so he's planning to go via Oxford and M40, but it means he'll be late getting home so will need to sleep.

Sorry folks, it's a non-starter.

 

[Smix]

Well - just looks overcast outside at the mo! So see you guys at the White Hart at lunchtime :yo: :} :}



Arty - thats a real shame, but hopefully Hunter will be back on aircraft work by the next meet :yo:

 

[Dave G]

Sorry cant make it today, Got the flu so its lemslip and back to bed.

 

[rivabill]

Good ride out, nice to put names to face's....I wil bring a proper size cup with me next time
Thanks
Bill

 

[stan the man]

ha a good day today...and got within a few miles of truxodhill looking at the map,we were within a mile east of longleat...so near and yet so far :xm

hope you had a good day all....

 

[ericonblackbird]

hope you had a good day all....

I certainly did, my first ride since I damaged my hand ................... and it worked OK although it now has a few strange bumps and has gone a little purple!

Glad to see you got back OK Bill, hope you didn't worry my friends ... the Wiltshire scammers!

 

[Smix]

Brilliant to see you guys. We only had one car at the car club meet, but that was just cos the parts for Solorider's bike were sent out wrong - oops!!

But, four BBirds, two red a black and a blue! Good show for a january meet

Dave - hope the flu is getting better - hope to see you next time

Stan - shocking planning! :} :} :}




PS - we were thinking of a Dorset meet next time - anyone know of a good pub with flat parking, good food and that serves tea and coffee in mugs; possibly Shaftesbury ish?? possibly near ZigZag hill??

 

[Dave G]

Not a pub, but Compton Abbas Airfield is a popular meeting place, just off the top road from Blandford to Shaftsbury - and just round the corner from Zig Zag hill :beer:

 

[Smix]

sounds good - just need to pick a date :} :}

that is a good shout, exactly in the area we were talking about Smix.

The other thought I had was Thruxton/Amesbury area which would allow a 'play' on Salisbury Plain and be a little further east for some of the South Coasters.

 

[rivabill]

Compton Abbas Airfield

Just a thought......can you phone to see if the airfield big enough to take black birds

I would like to see the look on the guy's face

I can see it now - "boss boss, some bird just rang and they want to bring in half a dozen or more blackbirds!!!!!!"

can you hear the thuds already of bodies hitting the floor!!!!!!!!

Au contraire, sweetness, most of these flying types also have bikes. It's a need for speed thing perhaps?

My ex, and once again, boss has a Hunter, a Gnat, a Yak (he's sold his Baron as he wants a helicopter, a menoPorsche and a Ducrappy which he wants to change for a Hardly.
