Markus,
No problem at all - i turned off from following thinking route via maidstone would be quicker for me but it wasn't!
Good to see you both again and I will be attending Brands Hatch - i have confirmed place to drive - but now i've got P1 i may bottle out!!

As we said we will have to come up with more ideas to get us all together in the south east and help Colin out if he is regional representative !!

Just a quickie to say thanks to Kris for organising it, even though you were not there.

Was quite a good laff.

I thought I'd be late as I arrived at around 9:15, but was suprised that there were only a few of us there. Seems a certain Mr Bushell has decided to navigate, and umm, they took the 'senic' route Never mind, it was an impressive site seeing many scoobies turn into the car park.

Maybe I was asleep but I did not hear the supra boys say that they were off for a quick burn, we just walked across the car park as they were leaving. oh well, was not going to chase anyway.

Was good to meet up with some of you again.

Hope none of you think I'm a really slow driver, especially on the way back (sorry Nigel!) was just hanging back with Andy who was running in the P1, hope I did not go to slow for you Andy.

Anyway, was good fun. Can say I finally made it down, maybe I'll do the run next time.

BTW - how many of you lot are going to Brands Hatch on 27th Oct??

Markus,
No problem, I just got fed up with a certain eight year old asking why I hadn't overtaken yet.
Excellent road on the way back, caught up the other guys and ran in convoy until Maidstone.
To top the day off I came accross a Ferrari F40, registration F40 ??? going along A20 past West Malling.
I think someone needs a bit more BHP, I'd be really upset if an old Scooby kept up with a toy that expensive.
See you at the next do.

Sounds good, looks like we'll have to find a baby sitter then!

Dread to think what you're going to 'add' to it after food and drinkies

As regional organiser I want none of this 'internet' chat. Send me a letter and I'll get something out in a few weeks

Sorry, Colin

( tongue in cheek)we haven't officially been told your regional organiser!!! obviously according to True Grip we have to ask the club first and they will tell us which strikes me as tail wagging the dog!!!!!

Seriously we all want to have a great area/region with lots of events so if you need any help etc and we will of coursecome up with ideas /suggestions


cheers

All,

Unfortunately i can't go to TRAX, would have loved to but i will be in Belgium( yes i know its the wrong weekend!) as a mate is doing the Tour of Flanders Rally .This is part of the Peugeot 106 cup in which he is second in the championship so he needs as much support as possible!!

we will have to arrange to meet some time for beer or lunch at weekend ( if it 's alright with colin!!!)

Were planning on meeting at 0630(!) at the Brentwood Little Chef (A12 junction with M25) - sound about right?

AndyO - if you mean lunch/beer this weekend, then we could do Sunday if that's any good - anyone else interested? Know a really nice pub in Ide Hill (Chimneys at the Woodman), they do fab food and good roads for a drive.

Nigel,

They need to be on a site already, then link to the site like this (i think)

[/IMG]
URL of picture [/img]

Does this make any sense?

Try looking in the members photo gallery.

Sorry about that Markus, I've had words with the photographer and she will get more Scoobies next time.
I think you turned up after they were taken, can't remember.
