I'll be there in the Sprint unless A) Something unexpected crops up or B) It is raining as much as it was last year.

It was the first time had used my newly modified Minisprint windscreen wipers on my way home last year & one fell off to be lost for ever as FOD on the motorway.

Hmmmmmm not sure its that kind of establishment Pete :lol:

And besides if I recall there were no bar maids - just bar butlers !!!!

Need to be there from 7pm really to guarantee parking - if you can pm me your addresses I think the old man is trying to put together some priority parking passes to ensure a good spot, I wouldn't bet on it being too successful as the owners seem mostly intent on shifting burgers and beer !!!! Proper warm stuff !!!

If anyone is planning on attending then could you PM me your address and we will send out a priority parking pass, this is to try and avoid interesting cars being stuck half a mile from the pub door !

Fingers crossed on the weather !!!

What's the blue sports racer with the RS wheels in the corner?

Is the silver DB6 from Edinburgh? I think I recognise the reg as the one in daily use about the new town.
