Event AS In The Community: The Association of Associated MASSIVs: SVR 1/1/19

[brownnova]

Providing no sudden family plans formulate (there have been rumours (which is incidentally the name of the album I’m listening to currently)) then I intend to attend!

[AnthonyG]

OK, so Google Maps tells me Bridgnorth is 1 hr 17 mins from Cheltenham so I reckon I’m in.

[Ghosty]

I can't come, mainly as I have to go to Kingswinford the day before and can't afford a Travelodge.

One year I'm going to think about this beforehand and make sure I'm back from my visit up north in good time.

 

Which will probably be the year it snows like fuck and we don't do it.

chester??

[Sloth in a bowl]

I will make it if I can, Mrs Sloth and the Slothlet are both down with colds currently so it is a bit iffy.

[dollywobbler]

Yeah, I fear I'm coming down with one too. Will see how that pans out.

[dollywobbler]

Well, I think I'm managing to kick this cold's arse, thanks largely to Haribo I think. See you in the morning.

I’ll have a look at heritage railway running days later and pick one. Most likely the SVR at Bridgnorth as we can mooch into the town as well. They have a cliff railway there, you know.

 

Furnicular

[red5]

I might have a pass. Bewdley to Bridgnorth on teh train. Or might bring the clan.

 

Assuming youngest ones ear doesn't explode (infection)

[brownnova]

I’ve just got home at 4.40am....

 

Thinking I might not make it....

[Sloth in a bowl]

Heading over with the Slothlet. Plan to get the 10:20 train at Bridgenorth.

[dollywobbler]

Got tempted by an evil seductress who suggested tea in bed, so will be arriving at Bridgnorth at around 11am by 2CV.

[Sloth in a bowl]

Journey over was 20 mins quicker than I was expecting. The overflow carpark, has been properly surfaced instead of being a field with tracks.

[Lord Sterling]

I'll hopefully be over by 11am. Still debating whether to Frontera it or train it over. Train is a strong temptation...

[Lord Sterling]

Bah! Missed the train by 10 mins. Next one is at 11.34am. So looks like it's the Frontera then!

[AnthonyG]

Sorry chaps, due to not sleeping last night I’m out. Enjoy the day.

[Lord Sterling]

Made It!

[Sloth in a bowl]

Will be on the diesel into Bridgenorth at 12:28.

[Lord Sterling]

OLD AGE KICKED IN YO

[Pillock]

Literally just woken up, and I live about an hour away. Hmmmm. Think I might be missing this.

[dollywobbler]

We are still here...

[dollywobbler]

Ok. Fewer of us are here. Maybe I'll be driving back in daylight then.

[Noel Tidybeard]

arse so mixed up in new jobness didn't notice this- could've bluddy made it an' all

[Lord Sterling]

Great to meet all of you. Glad we could catch up.but shame it was a bit short. Maybe next time, or maybe we could organise a Bridgnorth meet during the spring or summer?

 

Incidently I went into Bridgnorth town for a bit of a nostalgic walk around like I used to do about 10 years ago. I came across an antiques shop and bought myself these for a couple of quid:

 

The keyring spells out ADH 703G which doesn't seem to register upon the government site.

 

Spotted these in a lovely affluent street where I parked:

[chaseracer]

^ Appropriate reg on the red 200!

[puddlethumper]

Had to run off coz of a roast dinner, as you do. 

Good to put a few avatars to faces, or vicey versy.

[Floatylight]

Great to catch up with you all, lovely way to start off the year, see you at the next Auction Date, ChaseRacer may be hatching a plan..
