[overrun]

Might have a dodge ower, mesel. Jikovron possibly in attendance, anarl.

[primeradoner]

I hope to be putting in an appearance

[loserone]

Gentle reminder chaps and chappesses

[vulgalour]

Looks like Princess attendance is still likely.  I'm hoping the weather stays nice enough that I can give it a clean tomorrow, if not you'll get to see what I consider 'scruffy', which it is at the moment.

[Shirley Knott]

Juggling family stuff around but this is looks likely to be a goer for me too at present.

[Jim Bell]

Weather says overcast and dry all day. Good car washing and milling around weather.

 

Expect a hurricane and tidal wave though.

[vulgalour]

Is chip-stealing seagulls a concern at this venue?

I think thats the world over. If you have to fight them to save your dinner I will hapilly hold your coat fren.

[Simonsays]

I pity the seagull that tries to take my chips.

 

I'm partial to chips and no shitehawk is going to deprive me

[Jim Bell]

*theme from west side story plays*

 

Everyone starts snapping their fingers.

 

Gang fight between the seagulls and the shitters goes down on the beach.

 

Shitters win.

[vulgalour]

Only because seagulls don't have fingers to snap though, tbf.

I’d have come along but I’m in Devon on hols having just towed my 2cv down to its new owner (it’s now Normandie) and having won Wuvvum’s 205 roffle in a shock result. The latter makes up for the disappointment of not being at Shields (I was born there too).

Shame, but it also sounds like youre having the most fun man.

 

Theres always the next one.......

[Jimbob McGregor]

I’ll try to keep an eye open for the next one and turn up in something suitably shite. Just sold my just-run-in 246,000 mile Peugeot Partner to a mate but there will be something...

[overrun]

Red Rexton Ready!

[Schaefft]

I'll be at the car show at the horse race track in Gosforth all day long until 4 but will definitely be in North Shields by 7.

[garbaldy]

How many are actually attending?

[loserone]

Eleventy.

 

Allegedly

[Jim Bell]

Suppose thats hard to say till we get there.

 

From whats been said Id reckon 8 or 9 have said theyre coming?

[dollywobbler]

Ah man. I'll never remember that many names! Can people please wear tags? Preferably attached to slightly ludicrous hats?

Sounds Good. might be worth a run down the coast

[Simonsays]

I'll be the overweight 50 year old in the bland black Volvo V40.

 

Yes, I'll be wearing a flat cap.

No, there will not be an accessory whippit or greyhound.

 

In other news, I've had my car cleaned and it smells of cheap air freshener.

[Shirley Knott]

Eleventy minus one now I'm afraid.

 

I've been offered double time to stay back at work and do some basic data entry tonight, I'm a greedy bastard and this impossible to resist.

 

Have fun all, hopefully there will be another opportunity in the not too distant future to meet up with my Autoshite brethren, until then 'am ooot.

[loserone]

Boo (ze)

[vulgalour]

I'm going to get out and give the car a wash and vacuum shortly.  Mike's still undecided about bringing the Supra.

[chaseracer]

We had an unexpected but very welcome SVM presence at Cannock auctions this morning who's going to swing past the NE meet on his way home.  I won't spoil the surprise... 

[vulgalour]

Hoping it was something yellow!

 

I must be coming, I've made sure my in-car dusting cloth matches the carpet.  EDIT: not like that!

[Schaefft]

Ah man. I'll never remember that many names! Can people please wear tags? Preferably attached to slightly ludicrous hats?

 

It'll be the same for most I think. I hope Im the only German there lol.

[Jim Bell]

Im heading over now so should be there well early if anyone else is bored. Dollywobbler and L1 en route too.
