Hi Tony,
Let's hope there's a better turn out than the Hereford Meet
Not bothered really - just gotta be careful about Hallow - whinging barstewards...
Are there any other pubs in the Worcester area that are any good - over by the motorway junction(s) J6/7?
How about setting up a BBQ? Makes it a bit more fun for the rest of the family too....
Or finding a pub with a decent beer garden / BBQ...... after all it IS Summer (ahem)
Dan
(Car's nearly fixed - back to its original splendour
)

'ello all...
The date sounds good, but I get itchy when people mention Hallow these days!
I'll try and find a decent size venue that will accomodate us.
How does everyone feel about booking somewhere as a proper event, and organising numbers before-hand to ensure its worth it?
Scoobs take over a pub...NICE!
Dan - Looking forward to seeing you and yours again.
Tony - Ignore some of the disparaging comments made on the BBS about driving at the 'Coombe. I watched you closely, and thought you made a fantastic job of it. You started off quick, and improved gradually without 'coming a cropper. Smooth style too - I'd be a passenger wiv ya anytime, laddo. (Of course I'd have to bring petrol). Well done...

Good ideas lads, but have you noticed that the 27th is Bank Hol weekend, AND the Monaco Grand Prix 
Its best for the 27th tho' as the following weekend is no good for me either - not so glam as Tony's calendar tho'

20th or 27th, don't really mind.
The Monaco GP is normally decided in qualifying so I'll record it if the meet is on the 27th.
I'm also against going to Hallow after last time, but don't no where else to suggest.
"What about the pub by the layby just 3 miles before Worcs" What road Tony ?
At the recent Northern meet over 60 scoobs took over a pub carpark and the surrounding roads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tony didn't mention the road 'cos its the one he said he nearly lost it big time once in his scoob and he can't bear to re-live the saga again
Thanx to Richard A for being soooooo assertive

Guys (and Squizz )
The Fox is almost within staggering distance Or alternatively is at the end of my 'special stage' cut through from the Worcester/Malvern road when I head to Hereford.
I'll try to get down and see you lot, even though you didn't come and see me on the Powerstation/Litchfield Imports stand at Castle Coombe (sob, sob).
I'm sure they have a big telly in there, so maybe we could watch the grand prix (if you like) over lunch.
Parking is OK there (not sure if it is bigger than the Crown), and last time I was there, it was children friendly. In fact, I seem to remember it has one of those Captain Coconut thingys there (Kids playhouse), but you would have to check.
Cheers
Ian

We did come to find you! After looking around the GT4 owners cars, without much luck I spotted you talking to a punter at the Powerstation stand. Didn't wanna interrupt.
(I must get around to visiting powerstation when I've talked Karen into buying our track-day Legacy Turbo! )
"Captain Coconut" ?!?!

I'm sorry mate, you should have just come and interupted, I was probably talking the punter to death and would have welcomed the interuption
Powerstation ? If you are not doing anything this Saturday, pop down. I'll be there most of the day as I have a few jobs to do. Bring Karen so we can all work on her to let you have an thingy, a whatsit and a watchmaflip

Ian - We may just take you up on that. I'm having some new Toyo Proxes T1s put on the car Saturday morning - It'd be a chance to put a few miles on them.
I'll see if I can talk her into it...
Keep an eye out for me.
Simon - Sorry to hear that. We'll get you roped in for the next one though!

Great a pub I have not been to yet!
Plenty of interesting ways to get there, especially if your travelling on the A449 Worcester to Malvern Road.
Must get to powerstation soon as I think my geometry is out after my "flying incident".
Had the bumpsteer done last year.
See you on the 27th,
Jon

Squizz,
Easy mate, tall Karen that your getting tyres in the morning, then you are taking her shopping in Cheltenham in the afternoon (good shops in 'nam).
Fail to mention Powerstation until you actually get there

hope you're not paying too much for your Toyo's - I can recommend them for wear as well as grip- got mine from Malvern at just over £400 for a set all in, (last year.)
Mind you, any tyre is ok after tonite on the M5 crawing at 15mph home

Matty,
Was that at DTE up on the top in Malvern ? I'm sure they stock the Toyo's but never been in there.
You still using the M5 ? Find the B-roads, use the force. I haven't been on the M5 in weeks, what with all the roadworks southbound of Worcester. I've been rediscovering the delights of the A38 all the way to Cheltenham
Cheers

Ian,
yes it was in DTE, and someone there (wife of the boss?)had a CLK or SLK Merc booted with them
They did a good deal - better than DTE at Kidderminster and my local guys in Droitwich, and the mechanics luv Scoobs
I use the M5 up to Jcn 1 so don't get the chance to use the "proper" roads
PS I was at 'Coombe too, but didn't know you from Adam, so apologies if I stopped and didn't chat.
See you @ The Fox?

Ian - Karen's fine about our trip to Powerstation... Just remember to sell her on the Legacy idea, and I'll seeya right for a drink on the 27th! We'll be bringing Fizz (Darren) with us...He'll wanna discuss MY01 tuning options with ya.
Actually, talk Karen into buying that Audi RS2 if you guys still have it...WOW.
MattyB - Thanks for the Toyo tip at DTE... I actually got mine for £383 via a friend at Halfords who works in the Ripspeed franchise. (He met us at Strensham in a red Calibra). But I'll not trust their nut-monkies on fitting them!! I've got another trusted contact to do that.

The Fox, Bransford is actually on the A4103 which is the Worcerster-Hereford road. If you dig out a road atls that shows this road, look at the Worcester end of the A4103 and work back towards Hereford. Find Bransford itself then work slightly back towards Worcester. Where the A4103 crosses the River Teme, that is where the Fox is.
Squizz/Fizz/Karen,
If you do come down to PS tomorrow, note that PS tends to close at around 3pm on Saturdays (if they can get away). Not sure if the RS2 is available still, but I'll find out. Think Karen can handle a left-hooker ?
Cheers
Ian

..and the reason he moved so quick was that he thought he had £1400 in cash in his jacket. It was only afterwards that he remembered he had transferred it to his trouser pocket
