Hi all,

The new Surrey meet as now been arranged!

Plans are to meet at <B>Sandown Park</B> Racecourse in Esher about 1.00pm. There's a big car park there! We can chat, take photos, etc, there.

About 2.30-2.45pm we'll head off to the <B>Fairmile Arms</B> in Cobham. It's about 3 miles from the racecourse.

The pub is children friendly and there is a large play area at the back, weather permitting. There are also non-smoking areas and family areas.

The easiest way to get there is M25 Junction 10, and head northbound (towards London) on the A3.

Maps are further down the thread.

Hope you guys and gals can make it!
Andy

************

Forgot to mention that the car park is tarmac, so we can run radio controlled cars! Bring you RC cars along, and feel the might of my CIVIC!!!!

*************

[Edited to mention the RC bit!]

Well done Andy and Alex et al!

See you next time I hope

Hmmm, you'll be suprised to hear I've got season tickets to Chessington Ronnie...
Hopefully be able to pop across for the pub part.
If it's raining are you just going to do the pub at about 3pm and skip the carpark shenanigans?

For those going straight to the pub, here is a map from the M25.



You'll pass a Shell garage on your right, the pub is about a quarter of mile on the left from there.

********************

Here is a map for Sandown Park race course, you'll notice that you will pass the pub on the way!!



Hope this helps
Andy

PS - Email me on andrewtang1@aol.com if you have any query on directions.

Greg,

I don't know what you think we do??? We're only getting together having a chat, some food and a drink!!!

You should ask Nito to go gently on you!!! You've got the directions yourself, as he may become a silver dot on the horizon!!!

Greg,

Which way round does your rear view mirror face???

Don't worry he will take it fairly gently when in convoy.

Just to get different cars there, I've also posted the meet on the Lancer BBS, the Evo (mag) forum and the Audi BBS!

Being petrolheads, of course any car is welcome!

Oh Greg that old chesnut!!! Why not use the same excuse as me, and blame the problem between the steering wheel and the drivers seat!!!

Hey Hey Andy....

Thanks for sorting this out, good effort.
Will try and get there, whether I find it or not is another thing. Not comming with the Nito possey this time, as typically I'll be 20 mins up the road from the Quays, so shouldn't be too much of a hassel for me.

Look forward to hopefully seeing you all there.

Be Cool.
Hayden.

Good to see a nice blend of newbies and oldies will be there!!

Just remember to say hello! I'll be the Chinese guy with some sort of Subaru clothing, not to be confused with my mate with his Nissan 200SX or Fosters!!! Or you can look for my car, the one with the <B>blue</B> grille badge!!!

Hayden,

You should have an email with directions from Tadley to Sandown Park.

Cheers
Andy
