Looking out the window here at Bracknell it's foggy but driveable - what's the general feeling, give it a whirl or a definite no-no.....?

Beat me to it Simon, ok I'll do the same.

Nice to see you Dave on one your very rare outings, you must try and get more value out of tax disc

Also great to see ned again and james simon and geoff made the effort in the cold and fog, i think conrod had a duvet day.


Surrey Dave - 21/11/11 at 10:09 AM

I think that was the longest I've stayed at Newlands talking sprockets and flange warblers!!

It was so nice i took a more scenic route home.............


bob - 21/11/11 at 10:16 AM

Yes it was a good meet, car ran well in that nice cool air too.

I,m sure i will get some more value out of this years road rent before christmas.


steve m - 21/11/11 at 11:23 AM

Sorry i missed you all, but have just finished a few nightshifts, but 12 days off now
yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Dave so with this newlands, you must of clocked up about 66 miles this year ??

I cant wait for next year now that i got my car back on the road,

Steve


bob - 21/11/11 at 11:39 AM

Next year!! we still have plenty of tax left steve, i have to re rent for the new years day trip to brooklands museum though.


steve m - 21/11/11 at 11:48 AM

Bob,

Why would i have my car on the road in a british winter of freezing weather, ice, snow

AND SALT on the roads !! hahahaha

Its on Sorn now, so back about April/May

steve


James - 21/11/11 at 11:58 AM

Lovely morning!

Couldn't believe how the weather changed as I got further down the hill. Bright sunshine at Newlands, dreadful 100yds down the hill!

Nice to see everyone though.

Steve, I found an old Kit Car mag (from about 2000) with your car featured in it.


Cheers,
James


steve m - 21/11/11 at 12:08 PM

Have you now James !!

weres the u2u with your address James, so can send you the fuel elbow?

wont cost you anything!

Steve


bob - 21/11/11 at 12:17 PM

Steve i get more miles in the car latter part of the year, no rain our summer is very dissapointing.

Also you find out a lot more about the car this time of year handling wise, i remember one of our locosters saying you have to drive in reliability and its worked for me over the years.

Not knocking anyone who SORN's for winter and climbs under the duvet sunday mornings but i dont want an expensive garage ornament for half a year.


Surrey Dave - 21/11/11 at 03:40 PM

Yes Steve , I may have to contact the insurance company and up my mileage allowance!!!!!!!
