New year, new venue? Any suggestions. Or shall we continue at The Plough in Fen Ditton?

Regards

Grahame

 

How about south of Cambridge for a change???

OH!!! - look - I live south of Cambridge - what a coincidence

 

How about east of cambridge..........

Don't care - I enjoy the drive

Food & brightly lit carpark tho'.

Possibly in the boonies somewhere?

You miss your 120 mile or so round trip commute at the weekends, don't you.....

 

Dave

I don't but its the chance for me to drive the scoob ( ) not the vectra diesel ( )

130 miles

(PS I'm only down in Wapping now! I can see Chuckster from here and throw a stone at Devonshire Square!)

 

James
I can almost gob on you (metaphorically speaking!! ) - halfway down the Minories

 

Not Ibex House?

 

PTMW!
You'll have to spit a little bit further than that.....

 

Thought you might be on top of the totty that goes to Holmes Place

 

James

HeuHeuHeu

But unfortunately nah - I am in Latham House. I used to work in Ibex House in 1980. Just about sums up my career in the city - 21 years and gone 150 yards for my trouble!!

 

I wanna come. Please tell me where and when and I will be there !!!

 

I can't think of a pub with a large well lit car park to the south or east of Cambridge, so let's meet at The Plough in Fen Ditton for now! Maybe we could discuss alternative venues over a shandy ot two. Shall we say Wednesday next week at 7.30? Who's up for it?

 

I'm up for it. can someone give me some directions (i'll be the one in the Bright Red Blitzen)

 

Taffy,

I assume you will be coming along the A14 from Colchester direction. Come of at the A1303 junction and take first exit at the roundabout (probably signposted Cambridge City Centre). After about 1/4 mile take turning on right (should be signposted Fen Ditton). You'll now be travelling parallel with the A14. After about 1 mile you'll pass over a bridge and after about 300 metres come up to crossroads (Blue Lion pub on your right) - go straight across into "High Street". After 200 metres bear right at war memorial into a road called "Green End". Follow road round until you see The Plough on your left. Drop down into car park.

See you there.

Grahame

 

AH!!
Mid week meet - not compatible with London commuter unfortunately.....

 

Dave,

I also commute to the smoke (Liverpool Street)....
The pub serves food so no need to eat before you come out to play!

 

See you next Wed !!
Stan

Good point - but I don't even get home until 7:30 pm (assuming on time - which unlikely - good old WAGN - to55ers) - and have to be up at 4:45am - so don't go out in the week - what a saddo!!

 

Oi! Dave! Nothing wrong with a Wagon

G

Will have a try - may be later but NTL...

(We should be talking car-shares here boys )

 

James - LOL - particularly not yours M8

 

Yep, I'm up for it. Get back from Cornwall on the Tuesday, so this is a well-timed meet! Chance to exchange seasonal tales etc.

Course I'll still be in holiday mood(ish) as I'll only have been back at work for one day by then!

See you Wednesday
Richard

 

Damn, can't make it as I'm in Derby now

I'll have to get my finger out and drive up for the next one...P1 needs a good run

have fun guys

Ian.

 

Ian

Shame you can't tootle down for our first one of the year. Maybe we should organise a weekend meet - a four hour round trip for you won't be so bad then!! In fact I have an idea for a drive to Grafham Water which is near the A1-A14 junction, maybe when the days get a bit longer.
Are you going to Donno? If you are, can I cadge a ride rouud the track? I aim to get there late morning.

Grahame

 

Hi Grahame,
I can't make this meet but will try to do the next one, the drive out sounds cool I'll be at donno with the usual crew so will see you there.

Rob

 

CALLING GMAY,

Do you live anywhere near Buckden, coz I do. And I'm extremely close to Grafham Water, about 1/4 mile to be exact.
(Also a reasonably well lit pub car park with ample space for about 15-20 scoobs).

Hi Graham,

Sorry bit far to come!!!! But I keep checking the Cambridge meets in case there is one when I'm back in Blighty.

Hi Ian,

P1 eh what happened to buying the import!!! Well I have also got rid of my old car and have a P1 securely hidden somewhere in the UK!! waiting for my long overdue return. Will email you I have some questions.

Dave

In deepest darkest Brasil

 

GMAY...

sorry for the late reply...

yes I'll be there....maybe

come track me down when you arrive

Ian.

 

Hi Phone

I don't live near Grafham Water, just thinking of organising a run from the Cambridge area up to Grafham Water.

 

Dave

What's with Brazil and all that exotic stuff? I thought you were spending your time in the cold of Sweden. When do you anticipate coming back and showing us all your P1 (and sun tan)?
