Will there be anybody about on the 10th October? Matt More than likely ;D If I know someone is coming from afar then I'll make sure I book some time to be there. Tea, biscuits and a warm welcome guaranteed  Heck, maybe we could make the 10th a bit of a mini-52 gathering? I'm sure I could rustle up a few more RR peeps to come along. Maybe even stoke up the new BBQ if the weather isn't too bad? Always a winner. |

Great progress there Bruce.
Just back home from a 2000 mile holiday, which included about 360 miles in the bus.
Scotland was Wet Wet Wet.
But still lovely, and the Lake district better than I imagined.

Dartboard - never thought of that one! I shall have to keep a look out for one Ben, glad you're able to come along (especially if it's with consent ;D) - I assume you'll be in the Volvo? Might have to see if there are any jobs you need doing on it? Dan, have a looky here; retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=66556 - You're more than welcome to come along |

Thanks Mark. If you're not doing anything next Sat, please feel free to pop in for Area52's first 'play day' (Link in the post ^ above yours ^) Tigran dropped around the other day. We spent nearly 2hrs in the workshop discussing 'mods, plans & ideas' before retiring to the sofa's for another hour of discussing all things Retro Rides. I really should get shots of each visitor! A kind of rogues gallery ;D So far I've had visits from (to name but a few) Black8Driver, Heathy12, ScaryOldCortina & Family, Craig, Tigran, Morgs, EightSix, Tofufi, Grunty, RF/PF Chris....and more! (sorry if I have not given you a mention - even more reason to start a gallery of visitors!) This is Tigran's newly aquired 'weapon' which he'd just collected from a fellow Retro Rider. Looking forward to seeing this progress and I am certain that this will be making the odd & regular appearances at Area52     |

MM those walls look bare... I have these to donate if required... 80's tastic... ;D  won't be able to get them to you until october, off to Oz on friday, you still interested in a copy of Love the Beast? Stealthstylz, if you are about on 10th and still have that fiat lump, we could meet at Area52 (if anyone is around) save you dragging it around all w/e and trying to sort it at WBR... |

Ben, glad you're able to come along (especially if it's with consent ;D) - I assume you'll be in the Volvo? Might have to see if there are any jobs you need doing on it? In the Volvo, yeah. Nothing urgently needs doing but I'd be glad to let people give it a once over and get a second opinion on a couple points.. It's always nice to hear someone else's perspective on it, just so I know I'm on the right course! I'm hoping the back end of my exhaust turns up as well so if it arrives in the latter half of the week I'll bring it along should anybody fancy having a play. |

Just seen this thread. What can i say apart from - this place rocks. I shall from henceforth name it the brizzle triangle. As time seems to just zip by when you're down there. Hope to make many a visit down to this place mucking in with projects, chinwaging and generally hanging out. Even better now i know the way to bristol that doesn't involve going past swindon (don't ask).
