How come it's your turn again Phil?!
'Just a note:
That is Race Retro weekend, but I always go on the Friday (if I'm going at all).
If I get off the ship in time, I should be able to make it :cool:
CJ....... Just spoken to Jane Smith who also told me about race retro !!!!
so the new date is the following weekend Saturday 2nd March ......... Sorry didn't check the diary !!
i apologise for the confusion !!!........... So Saturday 2nd March at 10am
Cheers
Phil
Hi Neil
hopefully this will give you an extra week !!!
That should give me time to get the cooling system cleaned out and the car running...... maybe..... on the other hand. I am due to become a grandfather that weekend, so I could be otherwise engaged!
Nice one Phil,
Put me name down. With a bit of luck, I might be able to bring the new motor and the new navigator too.:o
Mick
Looking forward to the Cucumber sandwiches and best china tea service.....

I/we'll be there, not sure how many though!

We'll be along. Archie was amazed at your collection of Stratos models.
Not sure If I can get to you this time Phil on my way back from hols...
Don't worry Phil,
I'll be along with Lorraine. If you can book some decent weather, I'll be in the new motor too:o
See you Saturday.
Mick
Sorry Phil we are unable to come, have visitors for the weekend.
regards John & carol
Hi Phil,
Tomorrow I hope to get on with sorting my car, but..... as it looks now sunday could be the day my grandchild picks to enter the world, so I cant commit....
Cheers
To those of you who are coming tomorrow according to the bbc weather it will be sunny....... Hooorah !!.............................. But not too warm ! Lol
wrap up warm !!
I thought you would have had Central Heating in the garage by now ;)
Well the car is together - just need to get the tax & then I can try the gearbox - I should be there tomorrow - about 11...
Update... Managed 20 miles with no major issues - if you dont count a 3500 rev limit or no boost control as major...
i thought you were hard !.........Quote:

Thanks to Phil for the Coffee and cakes & especially the good weather!
The boost control was working fine as well, in fact even the problem with revving above 3500 went away on the way home, so Had a little play.
1st gear is hopless for a standing start, but 2nd works ok....

Woo hoo nice one Neil. Glad it's coming together.
Great morning both weather wise and turnout. Good to catch up with everyone again.
Thanks P&H for the hospitality, should be some nice photos.
Rob
Totally agree, Superb weather and a great gathering for so early in the year. Thanks to Phil & Helen for the usual hospitality and to eveyone else for making Lorraine feel welcome. Good to see you all again.

Mick, I see Lorraine got fed up of sitting in your Allegro then and opted for an upgrade!
You cheeky sod John,
The Allegro was in very nice condition though, as was the Anglia. Unfortunately, that's not Lorraine sitting in the 355, it's Helen and she did point out to Phil that he should add one to his collection before too long.:o
Mick
Sorry,
I'm miles off the pace as usual...
Looks like you all had a good day. I was working on Frederic's car.
Might pluck up the courage to post some pics soon. I'll ask Frederic if it's OK.
I suppose he might like to see it himself first of course. he's visiting on the 25th.
I wouldn't think he'll mind John, at least he will see that the car actually exists now and is at last being looked after.:rolleyes:Quote:
