Hi Shaggydog,
Re location of Marsh Mills, go to www.multimap.co.uk and plug in PL3 6RL in the post code search and it'll show you the Sainsbury's we are talking about.
As Duracell said it's go a strange roof, they are supposed to look like the sails of a ship!!
We normally park at the far end of the car park by the railway track (not that you can see the track anyway).
Hope to see you there, cheers, Grahame.

Hi Col,
Holiday was great, apart from driving the following, 1) 1.2 Corsa on the way up the Gatwick, 2)Astra turbo Diesel on Holiday, 3)Seat Leon non trubo diesel on Holiday, 4) 1.2 Corsa on the way back from Gatwick. Must admit though the astra turbo wasn't bad once it was wound up and on the motorway.
Tell you what though when I jumped back in the scoob after 2 weeks of that lot it felt like the first time I drove one, turbooooooooooooooooooooo.
Anyway needed a break after being made redundant the the day before we flew out!!!! Nevermind anyone who works in telecoms or semiconductors or anything electrical knows the industry is in the s£$t at the moment.
More time to clean scooby me thinks.
Anyway see you wednesday, Cheers, Grahame.

"Springbok"...V.Sorry to hear you have been made redundant,im sure you will find another job soon.Hope we can all lift your spirits on Wed.,i'll definately buy you one,anyhow!!!!

"Rambo"+"Rachel",be good to meet you,:from Tavistock if you head for Plymouth you will eventually come out on the A38 Devon Expressway,take signs for Exeter,then after only a short distance along A38,look for jnc.signed Plymton,take this jnc.,at traffic lights u need to be over to the right,go round roundabout,under A38 & u'll see sainsbury's on your left.Hope this helps,see you Wed.

Hi everbody

Duracell, thanks for organising another meet, well done that man
Sprinbox, sorry to hear about you job, but I expect you will bounce back

I am very keen to meet you all this wednesday, but there are 2 problems, I injured my back on Sunday, and am not sure if it up to a moorland run, and all I have at the moment is:-

A WRX not yet registered
A MR2 turbo
A Pulsar GTiR

I'll try and make it and bring along some others as well, see ya.

Lee.

Forgot to ask, one chap from Tavi wants to know if he can meet us at the pub on the moors, any idea where we are goin?

Hi wrx.co.uk,
Bring the Pulsar, I could do with a good laugh
Hasn't your brother got any cossies lying around, that would certainly make the evening go with a bang
If you don't have transport and need a lift give me a bell (e-mail), Cheers, Grahame.
