Okay, so who's up for another local meet? The date is Sunday 27th February, provisional time and place is 10:30am at The Cowper Arms in Letty Green (in between Hatfield and Hertford).

It's about 15 minutes away from the Potters Bar junction of the M25 and it's also a good rural starting point for a morning's hoon if anyone wants to go on (or arrange a pre-meet drive).

http://www.thecowperarmscolegreen.co.uk/

Directions
The scenic route from Potters Bar/A1000: Follow the A1000 north as Potters Bar gives way to Brookmans park. Go past the traffic lights for the B157 junction and about 150yds further up there's a turning to the right signposted 'Essendon B158'. Follow this road into the village of Essendon (about 3.5 miles) and out the other side. After you leave the village and the road returns to NSL you want to take the second road on your left. It's a very sharp turn and it's unsignposted. After that you want to keep following the road to Letty Green, through the village and out the other side. The pub is on your right immediately after you pass underneath a railway bridge.

From the A1/A414: Take the A414 (heading east if you're coming from the A1) until you come to a roundabout (the 3rd I think) signposted Cole Green and Birch Green. After you pass through a couple of traffic islands there's a signpost on the the right to Letty Green. Follow this road (if you overshoot it there's another turning about 50 yds later) and the pub is on your left about 1/4 mile later.

(Neither way is as complicated as it sounds, I promise. The post code is SG14 2NL, but some sat navs do have trouble locating it!)

Popped down to The Cowper Arms this afternoon - strictly in the name of organisation you understand - and I've confirmed our 'booking' for 10:30am on Sunday 27th February.

Please spread the word. All are welcome and it's a really good venue for a meet (and a good start for a subsequent drive!)

Nice choice, Zoki!

Have you seen the photos from the last meet in the Herts section? We had a good turn out including quite a few real exotics.

Cheers, I took a look, there was some nice metal there.

Did you guys do the complimentary drive after/before?

Is the next one in April then?

My new toy was still being tweaked at the time so I sat out the run, but I'm told it was a good one.

Haven't set a date for the next one, but I guess it's about time we started thinking about one. We should probably avoid the (many) upcoming bank holidays as people will be doing other things. Maybe May the 8th?

I think he means the weather will be nicer as its closer to summer?

The weather was nice today, went out for a drive, the Mazda sure pulls well, don't think its as good as the focus in the corners. But then again the focus was on coilovers, I hope some ARBs and stiffer bushes will help.

I'm busy every Sunday in June. So, you'd better take some good photos.
