HoTWire - I can't believe you'd abuse your dictator powers to edit my post, change the date and make me look bad... @quatermass - no, 13th June, like it says (and definitely has said all along...)

If I get home tonight in time for my wife to go to her weekly Yoga Wellbeing Lentil therapy dolphin friendly wimmin's workshop heynonny-nonny, I might be able to earn myself a temporary liberty pass for this for a change. I've just put it my diary.
I don't actually have a diary... I've just told myself I need to try and remember.

Little bump for this tomorrow. Weather looks fine, venue is nice, and one or two of us are pleasant. EmDee can't make it, so that should increase the pleasant ratio...

Welllllllllll,
I came along tonight. I have photographs of two Lancias, a slammed Panda, an XJS and also saw a white Peugeot 205 pull in.
I was in my wife's Skoda Yeti on account of my car only having half a suspension upgrade so far.
So why didn't I join in you are probably wondering.... well, after arriving there, and photographing the cars, I then realised I didn't have my wallet with me.
It wouldn't have looked very good at all to walk into a pub, introduce myself to a bunch of strangers, and then say "Oh and by the way I left my wallet at home".
So I waited in the car park to see if you all came back out to have a look at the cars.
But you didn't, and somebody needed a parking space, so I left again.

( oh man!! ^^ that was me, doing an inadvertant skid... It's a friendly enough crowd to stump up for a pint, if you find yourself in the same predicament next time then come in. Funnily enough, we couldn't work out who the 2 Lancia owners were so didn't sit with them. The pub is busier than the previous venue, so the car nerds are less obvious. XJS owner was not related as far as I know... The pub stops serving food at 8, so we tend to get grub and chat inside then pop out a bit later.

ARRRRGGGHHH FECKIN' HECK. I gave up and left again at just after 8pm I reckon. Mainly because the car park was rammed and there were two cars wanting to park so I felt a bit of an a*se taking a space and not actually getting out of the car or buying a pint. Strange you say that about the Lancia owners... I'm sure the one and only other time I came along to the RE:SE (at least three/four years ago) the red one with the yellow rear panel was amongst us. The white one had an RR sticker on it too. They must have been there for the RR:SE meet. Well next month I'll be along and hopefully in my old banger. I'll make sure I bring my wallet too. I would never ever walk into a pub and announce to people I don't know that I haven't got the means to buy myself a pint hahaha, that would just be wrong. BTW: Your inadvertent skid on entry to the car park made a strangely loud and sudden noise. It was almost like you'd done a jump into the car park and it was the sound of you landing

It seemed to make some people in the car park jump - oops. 155s on loose gravel!

L7, I'll remind you next month. I've been meaning to get along to this meet up for the last three years and never made it. I'm absolutely determined to be there (and to have the means to buy myself a pint) next month.
