There's also Aston Hill

 

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.6738591,-0.9240923,3a,75y,170.45h,73.13t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sAKhcxN4X3jkDtW3mAwUqeg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

 

Which is grim in a fucked 1.2 Corsa C, and I could make the XM loose nearly 1/4 a tank if I booted it up, which you have to do or your in 2nd towards the top

 

Or Kop Hill

 

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.6738591,-0.9240923,3a,75y,170.45h,73.13t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sAKhcxN4X3jkDtW3mAwUqeg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

 

And this 2nd gear corner we will come to after chinnor hill, after doing 30* through bledlow, which has no speed cameras...

 

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.6570156,-0.8271689,3a,75y,116.32h,75.87t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1snM88UBKHkcqvprqvGfWyKg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

 

But then we need to go from just below the blue dot (my house) to buckingham, looks like there's ample oppertunity to turn a 30 mile trip into an epic drive, I'll have to ask my stepdad to plot us the most roundabout bum shit route, or us local shiters will have to get together and plot something, I doubt we can top SF16 though, we don't have a Lake Verney...

I can probably get a couple more if it's allowed to ask some 2cvs?

Who's in charge? People tell me what you think, are guests welcome?

 

Personally I think we are going to struggle to get our 35 and therefore welcome invited guests. If you think they will fit in with us it's ok by me.

 

2CV, any excuse to show you mine!

 

And to really impress me, tell me the location, the photo was taken this year? In fact I will be so impressed if somebody can name the location I will pay for there driver for a fiver at Chinnor.

Guests should be welcome on the railway, but how about shitefest afterwards?  An inititation ceremony should be 320 touring and explosive_cabbage gets to rune it up to GLF, the bub2006 gets to take it for a long drive

 

Pass that, your in. Bring beer

If guests are welcome I'll ask my mate along, he likes trains but has a new Focus.

 

Don't panic about numbers yet though- it's the first day of ticketing. Panic tomorrow:-)

Has your mate got broad shoulders for the ridicule he will take for his strange and weird car choice!

 

The railway can cater for upto 65 no problem so I don't think we will over subscribe even if we empty Scotland again!

For those who have always wanted to have a go at driving a locomotive, the 1953 diesel shunter 'Haversham' (13018/D3018/08011) will be on hand to offer 'Driver for a Fiver' driving turns up and down the platform, between the home signals. £5 in the donation bucket will get you a great 'thrash' up and down the platform, supervised by the C&PRR's friendly traincrew.

This is the bit I'm most looking forward to.  Although having done a bit of research on the interwebz, Class 08s appear to have a top speed of 15mph, so "thrash" might be pushing it a bit...
