Talking Dorset/(unofficial)Wilts meet for June even though it's not actually 'in' Dorset...!!

Guy's and gal,
As we tend to wander around from meet to meet, next month we're going on a mini adventure, the meet will be at The Dove Inn, and if anyone knows where that is without me telling them, then i'd be amazed, it's at 'Corton' Near Warminster, see the link to multimap for a map.... zoom in or out as required.

We will probably meet up and then travel in some sort of convoy for those that wish to, but more details will follow nearer the time.

Oh yeh, the date....6th June..... blimey the years flying by....

Ron..

Map..

Edited cos it would seem i'm a muppet

Looks as though a few may be turning up from the SWS region from SIDC which will be good.

Who's doing Japfest then? My Husband fancies going so will drag my Son along to with his mate who's mad on fast cars. Looks like it might be fun, except the 12 quid entrance fee per adult!!
