Blimey, time marches on doesn't it, can't believe I'm posting for a March meet already!!!!
Anyway, the choice is yours, we can either go Sunday meet, (probably bussier) or a Monday eve, (like we normally do), and you've a choice of Venue aswell, we can either go to the Horton Inn, on the road from Wimborne to Cranborne, or to Dorchester, and the 'Trumpet Major' just off of Dorchester bypass.
So the date would be March 9th, for the Sunday, or March 10th for the Monday,
The choice is yours.
Post your preferences below, please!
Ron.

Monday's is good for me, but more than willing to change to Sunday if it suit's other's better.Must admit Sunday's meet felt very leisure'ly.
Duncan,dead chuffed with the spoiler second around,DR-MOTORSPORT sorted it straight away.
Ron/Duncan out of interest how long have these meet's been going,are there many original face's still coming.
PS.The Horton inn normally has a roaring fire on the go,don't no the other venue.

Mike,
The Dorset meets have been going about a year or maybe 18months, and I'm pretty sure that i'm the only one thats been to all of them, a few from the start come every now and then, but I'm the longest standing regular! Does that mean I'm the sadest????????
More opinions would be nice............

10th March for me please Ron,as the 9th is mine and my wife's wedding anniversary,and i have already got a b*ll*cking for saying that i was going to a karate course on that day.You can't hide behind a black belt when there is an angry wife about!
If it is the 9th,I will see you at the next one(and, at least i will be minus bruises).
Cheers

Right then Guys and gals,
It looks like the 10th is most popular, so that when it is, and I'm gonna say lets go for the Horton Inn, gotta be worth a go, if it doesn't work, well, we won't go there again will we!!
So to recap,
Monday 10th March, at The Horton Inn, it's on the road from Wimborne to Cranborne, anytime from about 730-8 on.
Ron.

Mike,
afraid to say that I 'did' have a shiny helmet mate, had to quit a couple of years back now, enjoyed it though, apart from the gory bits!!

Paul,
I don't remember where the Woodman is, but if thats the pub next to the wessex bowl at Branksome, it may well have been, seems like years ago dunnit!! No worries, we'll see ya at the next one!! ps, nearly finished the plumbing now!!

Dave,
no problem mate, I'll be there for a while after nine, afterall, no rush to get sleep is there!!

Ron.

Ron you have lost your marbles in your old age mate

The very first meet was at mcdonalds on holes bay relief rd. To jog your memory :-

YOU organised it
Bob came all the way from bristol
I had the silver sport
Mark was still driving about in a fridge

I don't know, the Woodman technically came second although it was first of the regular meets i suppose

Hi guys

Good to meet you Dorset crew

Hope some of you will make it up to the NBO at Lightwater up North in the early summer - promises to be good!


Thanks for making a gal (and lowly Sport owner) feel welcome, even tho only here for a couple of days. Just getting to grips with Pooles one way system

See you next time
