Right!

Me and Rach have discovered a mutal love for TGI Friday's and have decided TGI's and Scoobies would be a perfect combination

Soooo, on "Tinting Friday" aka Friday the 4th of April we have decided we will be going to TGI's and hope some of you happy-chappies will join us (and of course admire the newly tinted cars ) Probably go for meeting at 7.30 for eating at 8? I donno, open to suggestions...if we get 10 or more people they'll reserve a table for us

It will be the TGI's at Park Gate (junc.9) as this is HUGE and by faaar the best TGI's I've been to (excepting hte one in Florida which started my love for cocktails and American food at teh tender age of 13 ) easily making the Southampton one look at bit pants really.

Menu can be found here..mmmm..

Map and adress is here

So put your names below - and when we've got enough I'll ring up

Jen

Jen,

Excellent !!!

Mark says he'll start saving for my bar bill !!

Only problem is if I bring the scoob I'll have to drive - so no drinking all those lovely cocktails, or if i drink we'll have to come in the landy or taxi !! Decisions, decisions ???

Rach

You going to Sparsh1tts for that Mark??

Went down today, still trying to sort out my centre console - everytime I order a bit I find something else I need that they didn't tell me about. What started off as a good idea is costing me a fortune!!!

TGi's Might be nice but I'm not sure if Chrissi & I are around that friday, are you still all going??

Stu...

Hey Stu,

Yep, ordered from Sparshatts. Tony in the parts dept is very helpful (well, he has been to me). Steve/Simon/Daniel are also very helpful in the service dept.

They have their work cut out on Friday:

Fit PPP, do a body service, Fit DIPOL gear lock and fit boost/oil pressure gauge.

Mark! PPP! Very cool! You'll have to let us know how it effects your lovely 7 ..then I can persuade Rach to get one

We decided to go with Secur-fix in the end, after much deliberating it was 1 good thing for them (your testimony) v's 3 bad things I'd heard, and I hadn't heard any bad things about Secur-fix (and they gave us a very good price ) ...so I had to go with the majority...oh, and Tim said I could have his 22B if they were crap lol!

Stu - not sure about TGI's - I might put it off 'till after a Monday Pub meet so I can work on a few more people ..not exactly been inundated with responses! (I seem to be killing threads at the moment, I'm trying not to take it personally )

Oh - yeah, re: Shatts (as I lovingly call them ) Tony in the parts department is lovely He helped me identify little hoses and bits of plastic I needed to replace on my Scoob, even coming out with me in the rain whilst I pointed them out to him

Nice chap

Well.....Mark is buggering off to a sad 'lets plan our off road trip to Italy' party on Sunday so If you fancy some puppy fun you are more than welcome at this mad house or I can drive out to you on Sunday. Busy on Saturday as I'm having my hair cut off !!
If its nice I might just give the scoob a bath so anytime after 10 is good either way.
S'pose we need to make some arrangements for the 4th, times etc and do we know where this place is in Basingstoke??

Give me a ring.

Rach

p.s - I need a co-driver for the Mencap rally, Marks chickened out

Rach - yeah, I said I'd call them this coming week to confirm and find out some more details I'll call them on Monday, are there any times you can't do/need to be back for?

Anyway - re: the weekend, we can easily wander over your way if you like, or you're more than welcome to come and visit the cats if you needed to get out Oooo, what'ca doing to your hair then?!

I've managed to loose your number (useless me, but I've got another mobile now ) ...so I'll e-mail mine too you
