Phil, you seem to have hit the sweet spot with the date, must be something to do with the tax year. Will there be room for another two, promise to bring some home cooking?

Save my usual spot Phil. :cool:
Need to sort my MOT at some point in the next few weeks, but that shouldn’t be a problem.

I'll try and get along, first outing for the car this year.
Im in Tenerife the week before, should be ok so long as the brexit shutters don't come down on March 30 and I can't get back into the country!

As the owner of a very tired, very ordinary, non running Allora, that I will get going again one day, I would like to take the opportunity to meet up with some club members.
Having met Tom Ransom recently and seen his car and been a long time friend of Norman Briers since his Allora days I would like to come along to meet a few more of you - if there is room.
I will of course need an address but could get it from Norman if you don't want to post it on the forum.
Thanks
Pete H

Hi All
don't know what the weather will do but hopefully the sun will shine.
If you turn up in a daily driver I may ask you to park on the roadside front....
See you soon

Enjoyed this morning, cheers Phil and Helen for starting the year once again.
Had to leave a little early due to other commitments so apologies if I missed having a natter with anyone.

Yep, another fun day with the Stratossers at Phil's. Big Ta to Phil and Helen, and great to see/catch up with lots of peeps! Nice selection of cars too.

Must also thank Richard for the transport in his Kermit-a-like, even if it is a pain in the arse and knee to get out of (twisted my knee a while ago and it's not quite right yet...that's my excuse anyway, yah-boo-sucks). In revenge I'll have to try and catch Phil in a strange position as well. Ooer.

Thanks again to Phil/Helen for another great day,

It all goes too fast though, I didn't get to have a chat to half the people there.
Thank you for capturing Norm's athleticism, we were too late to see that in real time.

Very enjoyable day with a surprise visit from Guy Croft, he saw the Guy Croft engine plate on the cam cover and asked me if it was a real one of his engines, big thank you to Phil and Helen for hosting the day.

Thanks Phil & Helen, excellent as ever, the 124 looks brilliant and that is going to be a stonking Lampredi in there! Amazing to meet Guy & Gloria, what a treat.
Couldn't help but notice how well Gordon's & Richards cars went on the way back, kept the grale honest!!!

Thanks to all:)

Thanks to Phil and Helen for another great garage day - an even bigger thanks must go to Phil for having his camera ready for our arrival!!! Another great turnout, very lucky with the weather and great to catch up with everyone.

Tim, funny you should comment about how well you thought our cars went on the back - mine started bogging down above 4000rpm, pretty much straight after setting off home... something to investigate this week I think! I promise that's not an excuse for my puny little 2.5 lump, btw :p

Cheers
Richard

Thanks for a really enjoyable day and to put faces to some names at last. I might even get there next year in my old boneshaker Allora if I can get it going.
