Weather is looking better than it was earlier in the week so fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Daphne at the Merrie Lion told me last night she will provide free tea and coffee for those of us who are driving.

Look forward to meeting you all tomorrow.

Kind regards,

Robin

Car washed but then I decided to take it for a spin so now dirty again - the joy of Maserati ownership.

Yep, me too with the cleaning bit. Even got the dremmel and Autosol out on the tail pipes, they were very dull.
All washed, clayed and waxed ready for a run out.

While I remember. I think there's a Pistonheads meet up at the Jaguar plant from memory so there may be some nice machiney floating about the area. On the same note that may also mean some rather excited driving as they exit. Take care.

Poo - haven't been on for a while as I've been busy (at last) with my expansion. Close by for me but have already arranged our staff post-Christmas get together at Mr Karting in Harbury. Otherwise would have been perfect.

Rare winter excursion from the garage tomorrow!

Will hopefully stay dry until late afternoon? :0/

Looking forward to seeing everyone for some like minded company over a good lunch.

Plan to leave Brackley around 12.30pm.

See you all tomorrow, regards

Actually it seems I can make it now. It is a 1.5hr drive. I have never met any of you before! Is it OK that I come? How will I recognise you?

That's a shame Malcolm, never mind hopefully we will organise another meet later in the year if this one goes well.

Of course it is! If you are in any doubt as to who are the eccentric Italian car owners when you arrive ask the landlady, Daphne and I am sure she will point you in my direction.

Well wasn't that all jolly civilised :)

I enjoyed meeting all those new faces but you'll have to excuse my memory when we next meet, I have no capacity for names :(

I'd be more that happy to come to the next one, whenever that may be. Good food, surroundings and company.

Thanks for organising!

Good food, good company but the weather was a let down, organisers must try harder on this front going forward.

So when is the next one?

I am home!!!! The traffic home was appalling!

But I had a good time visiting a part of the country I have never been to before.

Shame the weather was so bad! I never got to look at everyone's cars and I had my camera as well. Hopefully next time will be better.

Thank you all for having me.

Just got home? Wow that traffic must have been bad!

Zagatoes30 nearly got wiped out on the M40 roundabout by a completely thoughtless driver in a 7 seat moron carrier and I had a slightly sideways moment a little later on a torrent of water across the road.

You saw that, I sort of suspected it was going to do something like that - heh ho pays to keep your eyes open and expect the worst from all drivers

I luckily had zero incidents. Drive slow and played it safe. Visibility was poor.
