beko1987 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 @Six-cylinder did you want to look into sharing transport? If hotels are cheap enough I might indulge, if not as long as we bring an estate for my tent and it's stuff I won't need a car at night. Could share the driving then/I'll just drive you?

beko1987 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I can be selfish and say either weekend either side works better for me if we get to that stage, but I can work on the date currently chosen if that's final twosmoke300 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidfowler2000 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 May I propose the first weekend in June (3rd / 4th / 5th - 4 weeks later)? Bit later, bit more time for folk to organise time off, lighter nights, warmer weather. Still outside school holidays. Not my event so feel free to tell me to fuck off. willswitchengage, Inspector Morose and LightBulbFun 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically that's fine for me but it's the Jubilee bank holiday weekend so could be a bit more awkward. I'm happy to look into other weekends just providing the field is free? The weekend before is a little more awkward for me as I'm holding a car meet at the Aviation museum in Ipswich, the 20th-22nd May weekend is clear for me though.

Spot the Scottish guy knowing the square root of fuck nothing about something royal. Was merely a suggestion. Maybe do as in previous years, get a couple of different weekends and run a poll? trigger, cms206 and BorniteIdentity 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EightMegs Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I've asked my boss and it won't be a problem, I'll be living in the U.K full time by May so I'll only be travelling up from Poole rather than Kilkenny via the ferry. twosmoke300 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New POD Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Right. I have 4 months then to get the MX5 back on the Road. Its been sitting in the garage since start of lockdown. It's the only car we have worthy of attending. Obviously an Astra J (which we have 2) wont be appropriate. I wonder if i can get @MikeRto come and share the driving. If we put the top down we will look like two old happy hairdressers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Watch the avatar 😉) Hi Bob. No we'll be braving the wilds of East Anglia for this one... Look for Shotley and you'll be close. FoD days go on a separate thread, this is the big yearly meet up that hasn't happened for some reason lately🤔 bobdisk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cort1977 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I'm up for this, a mere 542 miles on the scenic route. Vehicle choice may be the Cortina if I'm feeling lucky, Saab if I'm feeling sensible and Mustang if the price of fuel drops below 1.20/litre. Thanks Trig for arranging. trigger and BorniteIdentity 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Watch the avatar 😉) As has been said this is the main Forum event and I plan to attend. In addition there will be several Field of Dreams (FoD) events, with activities like lay a 2 ft narrow gauge railway, collect and start a Saab 95 that has been off the road for 20 years, Replace parts on the Toledo and drive it to the chip shop. Dates to be announced. 83C, AnthonyG, bobdisk and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
