The Salmon - 4/8/13

[PoshTwit]

It's time for me to start battering people into submission again for another monthly Salmon meeting.

Trundle shall take place dependant on those willing, and may comprise an alternative route to avoid Mrs Miggins in her Corsa being cheeky enough to drive at the speed limit - thoughtless I tell you!

Grateful if attendees could confirm their intentions by annotating their details and preferences as per the tabulated format below:

Muchly thankings...

Sorry, I'm already booked at Castle Hill Festival.

Anyone fancy meeting at Severn View Services for a reverse of the usual? It will mean a £6.20 entry fee, but has the additional advantage of a Toll Booth Grand Prix...

[PoshTwit]

Bumpety-bump!!

I'm game for that - Sunday a.m. looking dryish so far...

Sorry, South Cerney Steam Fair this weekend, should be a good show if the weather holds.

[carreauchompeur]

Sounds good, having a bit of a lean month money-wise but it's not far from Brissle. How long is the 'route' there going to be?

[fatboy69]

Where is The Salmon? Post code please as i might be at a loose end tomorrow - work cancelled at the last minute, Wilton House sold out so might need something to do.

[PoshTwit]

Route is approx 1.5 hours = about 70 miles maybe (never clocked it!!)

Salmon postcode GL13 9SE.

Severn View Services for 0800.

The Salmon for 1030...

[the chav]

I will meet you all at the pub and ill be in the little yellow girly car

Dont think its sold out for general tickets. They have just stopped selling online cos they obviously cant post in time! Weather looking better that direction so I will be going. See you guys next week.

Well that was fun, lovely route and empty roads. Three new things learned today:

1. Severn View is like a deserted portal into the motoring past. Lacking the space for the orange Naugahyde saloon it richly deserves, or even a decent choice of tumbleweeds, it remains a coelacanth of motorway services.
2. Given a sufficiently strong breeze, a water-filled open car will completely dry-out before its driver.
3. Breezes approaching 0.8Leptons in value on wet roads may be associated with loss of traction, even into 5th gear.

Thanks to Richard and family for hospitality - I'll bring my own Lego next time. Meanwhile this is for Rupert:

I note like most beetles, yours appears to have developed an oil leak...

Nice to see you.
