It's that time again :) The monthly meet, and a chance to meet up and speak in person with people from the land of internet.
However, a dark cloud is looming :( (or is it just me!)
Costs! Cost of petrol, insurance, tax!, servicing, living, shopping, drinking and smoking are all on the up and up :(
As a performance car based club, how long can we go on before all we ever do is meet online in a virtual carpark :)
I was in the process of planning a weekend trip to southern Scotland over the easter break, and had a lovely route planned all through the Yorkshire Dales, through Cumbria (al la "raid across the border 2004 andy :)) then on into the Dumfries region for an overnight b&b stop. The next day would then be spent hooning around that area and Kielder Reservoir and eventually home. No problem, until I got to sorting out the petrol cost! I figured on at least 5 tanks of juice to get us there and back, with the hoonage in-between. Which at todays prices works out at £330 for petrol alone:cry: (5 tanks of 60 litres @ £1.10 per litre) Factor in the B&B, food, drink and sundries, and we'd be looking at close to £500 for a 1 night stay in Scotland! :cuckoo:
So, we're going to Wales instead :luxhello: Watch this space.

See you all next thursday. :thumb:
