Hi,

I'm definetly coming along to this with my 944 - see below. Though I will be making the journey with my partner who has an MG and will be with the MGOC.

Would it be possible to meet you there and park my car with yours.

I'm not yet an official member of the club but will be by next week, I have attended an East Midlands Club Night meet.

Regards,
Nicola

P.S. I have an idea what the mystery car may be ;)

Hi Nicola

It would be easier if you met up with us at Centergravity.

The show is in the old town square and it will be a pig to get you parked up with us unless we go in convoy.

Centergravity is only about 5 minutes away from the town centre

It's a very good laid back day and all in a good cause, just throw a donation in the bucket

The centre of the town is closed off for the show which runs from 1000 until 1600 hours

What's a sat-nav? I have a cage full of homing pigeons in the passenger seat and take my cue from them.

Hi all,

I'm definetly attending the show tomorrow but cannot make it to the meeting point, as we'll probably be a little late and are metting up with the MGOC as far as I know, so I hope to see you there all!

Pixie is going though :)

Weather is not forecast as so good up here in Derbyshire, lets hope it's better "dahn sarf" ;)
