If it is I have drank in that pub a few times as I've got family who stay in the village. It absolutely is! It's the next village along the road from mine! I've played a gig in the crown recently!

This one was a 440 GLi pre cat, quite basic with no power steering. The 1721cc injection pre cat went very well and this was no exception. As G159 TWL was last taxed in 2000 I guess it is long gone. I love this shot! TWL is certainly in better nick than mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twin-Cam Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be coming. I just think it would be a little unwise considering the current climate, so I'll be there in spirit. richardmorris and Cord Fourteener 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame, but it was going to happen considering how people were acting during the weekend. Oh well, another time perhaps. I was seriously looking forward to going on a drive for a day, even to get out of the house other than work Cord Fourteener and Twin-Cam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownnova Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Yep... officially postponed then... Bugger. Shall we aim for an autumn date instead? How does the 11th October grab people? Skizzer, Cord Fourteener, Ghosty and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownnova Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 They’ll be relaxed by then. I’m thinking avoid the height of summer as it gets very busy, and September will have Chumley in it. So October seems good... Cord Fourteener and strangeangel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat4 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Sad times but I'm hoping to spend a month in Wales in September. I'm sure I can tag an extra week or 2 on the end Cord Fourteener 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cord Fourteener Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Let's hope that by October the lockdown has been relaxed a bit, and nearer the time we can pick a date. If there is a relaxation over summer maybe some local shitters or those eager and willing could have a day out in the mean time?
