Default Dorset meet for May......

Right then lads and lass's, for once, i'm completely stumped, if anyone has any ideas as to where we could meet, ideally somewhere that we've NOT been to before, please let me know, not too far West, or else no-one will turn up..... so maybe somewhere north-ish.....??

The date will be the 1st may.....


Ron.

Jacey... normally we say anytime from sort of 7pm onwards...... however, it's a bank holiday, so if the weather's good, people may wish to have a bit of a ride first..... i'd still say 7 onwards though...

Hi John,
More toy's then John?
I had a look at a Spec C STI 8 with a few goodies not sure if it's the right car for me, but there may be a JDM STI 8 coming up for sale soon and I have had the offer to go and try 3 cars back to back,so it would be rude not to.Trouble is I'm not in a desperate rush to get rid of mine as I enjoy it still.However I'm sure if I get the right sort of offer on mine I may change it,although I haven't tried to sell it as such yet.
Regards
Dean

LO mate, if you look a bit furthur up the thread you'll see the meet is at Burley in the new forest, I shouldn't worry, RON always schedules these meets for when he knows I'm working nights.
