Think the weather is looking OK for tomorrow

Is there a WLM meet on tomorrow?

(think there was one last weekend that I missed?)

Any plans?

Regards
Rob

Rob,

Conrod has got something set up for this location tomorrow. Not sure if you want to drive that far, but I'm sure he'll be along soon to post some details...

just a reccy to see if it,s any good as i,m getting a bit bored with newlands

I love the new location if it comes about, even if i'm busy tomorrow. Mind it's still over 60 miles away.

BUT, don't you think that the fishermen will get slightly hacked off at a load of sevens rumbling into the site? Mind just looked up the postcode and it's nearly under Heathrows flight path.

Never bored with newlands me.

I might visit the royal berkshire in the warmer months for some angling with my son.

I'll have a look out of the window in the morning.

I better just mention for those who hang a bit low - there's a couple of rather mean speed bumps on the lane down to the cafe....

Bugger mine's sitting an inch lower now due to the wheel change.

that was the reason for making a low profile reccy first,lull them into a false sense of security first

So, do we have consensus yet, as to what is happening?

Cheers

I'm gonna be there around 10am.

Decided to have a lay in and go for a local bimble to build confidence that the car would actually make it there and back for next time

Rob

you didnt miss much Rob
think its back to newlands for next time?

May be ok for an odd small meet during the summer months (unheated cafe was a mite fresh...!), but I don't think we'd be too welcome in any sort of numbers.

The site's obviously all about fishing, so I suppose you can't blame them...

Just come back from a chilly local bimble with Smudge off here

Just got a cheap little spy cam so mucked about with it strapped to the roll bar (just uploading to youtube as I type)

Hopefully will have a bigger card for it by next week and would be up for a longer run out assuming the weather is OK

Newlands is a good venue as theres other interesting stuff turns up
I guess the 'Fishy gaff' would have a less interesting car park

Rob

I will hopefully be fit enough for a run out to Newlands next sunday weather permiting.

Not very exciting footage, but happy I have a camera AND a working car!

Agree with Geoff - a bit rustic and deffo not for cold weather. Didn't realise how cold I'd got (despite the thermals) until I was on the way back.
Also think the guys dangling their worms in the water might not be too pleased if we turned up en masse.
Must be somewhere else that's open early'ish, warm & closer than Newlands?

PS robocog - you really need to get that chassis flex sorted out!

ROFL @ the chassis flex
Hopefully it will stop doing that when I solidly mount the camera...assuming it is that and not really the chassis doing that!

Good optical illusion though

Hoping that a faster card will make it less "stopframe like" as well
Its only a cheapo so not holding out much hope

What about the model car racing place that was mentioned a few years ago?
(I think there was mention of a heated sit down cafe at that place?)

Rob

Martinthefridgeman mentioned the RCC place, i have a feeling its Aldershot,will have to check.
