Midlands Meet

Anyone interested in a meeting in Kingsbury which is just north of birmingham

There is a big park there which would be an ideal location as it quite central for everyone.

18th / 19th of Sept is best for me, as I'll already be half-way there in Swindon (great!!)

I'll see what shape the car is in tomorrow at the garage :?

Sounds interesting. As with most people it depends on when and work/family commitments. Probably be end of September early October before I get over the expense the MOT has thrown up.
