Sundary 4th Nov
Morning Drive
Cancelled.

Evening Meet
7pm @ Billing Mill


We saw tonight that the QE is closed until 9th of November so we need another venue. James from MK mentioned there's an MK meet we could pop down to. Otherwise need to find another good venue.

I'm hoping that they replace all the bar staff when they reopen, painfully slow tonight.

RB5 JIM

Billing Mill has just reopened after renovation.

Andy T

Not bad down there, popped down Wednesday for a bite to eat.
Cant notice much difference, except for a lick of paint on the walls !!!

Who did they have in

Would suggest the Hungry Horse as that is my local and the staff are very good, but we have tried that before and ended up back at the QE.

As H said, Painfully slow at QE.................. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Cant see the point in extending pub, get some happy + helpfull staff first will go alot further to making me keep coming back for over priced food n drink.

p.s. there is a pub at westcroft. the nut and squirell.

Thunder77

Hungry Horse sounds fine. Billing Mill would do too for next weekend. Or we could wait a week and join the MK meet.

hivoo

Billing Mill is fine for us .....

Been told of some stories about the MK meets (NOT SAYING IT'S THE SAME PEOPLE/MEET)

RB5 JIM

Billing would be ok for me. Cant make daytime as allready got plans.

Thunder77

Like the idea of a drive. Got any ideas?

lukey1

do we know what is happening yet, depends when and where as might not be able to attend

Bigears

we're up for a bit of a blast, where do you want to go?

Tim, I bet you only want to show off that new gearbox of yours.

Craig & Yvonne.

API330

oh i love that g/box

Thunder77

New gear box, ooeerr. You'll need four wheels as well though

We did the Kettering/Corby area last time, how about going either East or West of Npton? Anybody know any good routes?

Andy T

let us know route ideas, we have done some good ones in the past, not decided if joining for a blast yet (but im easily persuaded) but will be around in evening for sure.

where are we meeting in evening ? Billing Mill

(or as we shall call it the BM in memory of Tims new car, with bets on how long he shall keep this one ? )

Thunder77

So what good ones have you done? Any good ones you can remember?

Evening meet @ Billing Mill sounds good.

hivoo

Evening meet @ Billing Mill 7.30pm is good for us

Not going to be joining you in the day time, just not going to be able to keep up with you with the little one in the back, (well that's my Excuse anyways)

I had to say that because I know Craig was thinking it

API330

H.... you have a go at route and post it up and we can see how much int we get and go from there (not to much detail) if know int we can just meet in evening

sparky d

Dave

Andy T

Ok, not quite runs but drives somewhere and back ! Japfest x2, Time Attack@ Rockingham (when Gary spun MR2), Bubble Meet and many others

Andy T

Dave, not your fault about the QE. Come along to the meet, can we ask you to somehow electrify the bar at the QE so the staff seem more alive before they re-open !!

Thunder77

Alrighty, I'll have a stab at it later tonight.

Thunder77

Something like accidently wire up a live to the beer taps?

Thunder77

Here's a first version. I hope you can see the route by clicking this link.
Basically, start at the QE and do a easterly tour ending up in Chapel Brampton at the Spencer Arms for a bite to eat. Google thinks this will take 1h 15m but if you feel its too short or too long let me know and I'll have a play adjusting it.

East of Northampton Loop

Andy T

Looks good H. What sort of time are you thinkin of startin ?
Food is always a good idea

Thunder77

I think Tim wanted to meet about 11am

API330

i will be up for it if we get enough int . (i dont mind time wise )
