There has been the mother of all organisational cock-ups in chateaux bognor.
It would appear at some point in the last six months wires have been crossed about the date of gathering. My wife has it in her diary as next sunday - something I've just been going along with since the start of the summer hols (a period of time in which I turn off my brain) - this has lead to my getting a bit overenthusiastic and conducting communications as if it was happening next Sunday - without ever engaging my brain and actually considering the dates.
Which wouldn't be too much of a problem if our holiday cottage hadn't been booked from the 20th.
So I'm officially a complete twunt.
Have a nice time all.

No way!
That's the kind of mistake I make. Sorry to hear you (and the Micra) won't be there mate. Have a good holiday.

Whoopsie! I shall be driving this on the Gathering weekend: Unfortunately, due to a similar administrative cock-up to Mr Bognor, I shall be doing so approximately 800 miles away.

You people (those missing the event) all fail. Should have bought a Retro Rides Calendar, it is marked on there by default Next year's show date will be announced at the show

Mark - was hoping you'd be there pitching another strange techie project you wanted to offload..... weird electro-shock equipment or something Have a great holiday fella - luckily the GF got the RR calender and checked the Gathering date immediately (she was not wanting me moping like I did last year when I missed it). There'll always be the huge reports to drool over mate. Cottage has wifi doesn't it! John
