Default May meet for DORSET!!!!!!!!!

Guy's,
after a bit of a ride round last night, I've decided that the next meet will be on May3rd, which just happens to be a Bank holiday.
So, with that in mind, and the fact that most people won't be working that day, the meet will be at the Kings Arms, in Portesham DT3 4ET.
The idea being that you may wish to get there a bit earlier than usual with wifey/partner/girlfriend/boyfriend/significant other, and have something to eat.
I'll be there for about 7ish.
If the pub ends up being too busy, which it could due to it's location, then we won't go back there, there is a reasonable carpark, so hopefully that won't be an issue.

Any questions, ask!!

Ron.

getting caught speeding is your choice, but be aware that the A35 between Bere Regis and Dorchester is a very temting piece of road, however, we have amongst us someone who assures me that speeding along that stretch of road may not be the most advisable thing to do!!!!!!

Ron - Does this mean Chris will be out there looking for us - we can all wave

Karen - B2 - Me too ! Does the laser warning go off occasionally when accelerating hard - Annoying. I need to get it sorted.

Being a holiday, I'm trying to persuade my other half that we should go to Abbotsbury for the day and then meet up at the pub later.

Hopefully see you there.

If your going to do it properly you need front and rear laser jammers (LRC100) they save me regularly on this road.

SG,
The lights look ok on the right car I guess, doesn't flick my switch!!
Spoke to Chris yesterday, he's too busy, so the brake job's been handed back to me! Let me know when it all arrives, and I'll try to come down within a few days and do them, we can't have you driving round with no brakes can we!!

Ron.

All you need to do is state that you're going, and how many free passes to the car park you'd like!

Im getting all excited about my breaks Im gonna be indebted to Ron for some considerable time!

Tony and Explore, what time were you thinking of? As Ron suggested, some may wish to have some food there before the main party arrives... I wouldn't mind that but obviously will go with the flow.

I'm free all day so not worried about the schedule... let me know.
