Now that the sunnier days are appearing, I was wondering whether anyone would be up for a breakfast meet at Ashridge Farm Cafe, perhaps on the next sunny Sunday morning, at 10am? Be nice to see a row of Porsche cars parked outside. The brekkie is brilliant - widely renowned - definitely worth the drive to the cafe from the surrounding area. One caveat - get there by 10am or be prepared to wait - the place can be very busy. We usually are sitting outside waiting for the doors to open every Sunday morning at around 09:55!

If you're up for it, how's about letting me know here and let's put a list together of potential attendees?

Details are:
The Farm Cafe
Ashridge Manor Garden Centre
Forest Road
Wokingham
Berkshire
RG40 5QY

Directions:
Located on the Forest Road - either follow the Twyford Road to Hurst, passing Cantley playing fields on the right, over the A329m and first right into Forest Road and immediately right. Or follow Warren House Road down to the The Warren pub and roundabout - turn left towards Hurst, follow the road almost to the end and turn left before the T junction into Ashridge Manor Garden Centre.

Any interest?

Cheers
Chris

Ah! I had forgotten about the AGM mate. Sorry. Maybe next time!?

If anyone else not going to the AGM and is within striking distance of the venue, there are now 8 Porsches in the line-up..

Good to see everyone although a rather brief visit on my part... half of the problem solved as my flight is cancelled and the whole event in Portugal canned, next how to get my Mum back from Malta not by air....

Defo think we should make this a regular breakfast meet.

Hi Jo

Yep - it was really pleasant seeing you and Olive and getting to meet all the new folks. Hope we can do it again sometime soon.

Cheers
Chris
