The weather is looking fine & sunny all weekend, what have you got planned?

The Loti is running sweet & is polished so i'll be out in that for a few blats, probably down to weston-s-mare, maybe Cheddar, may see some of you about? Also Beeses tea gardens by Conham have a weekend of real ale & live music so we will get the boat out & motor across to there for a few jars.

I have a quiet last day in work, just looking forward to starting what looks like a great weekend... so what you all up to? beer

Off to the Pembrokeshire coast tomorrow morning (via the indirect route in the mountains evil) and back in Brissle on Sunday/Monday. Could well be up for a morning meet. Easter Sunday??

I'm mainly doing housey stuff - moved into my new house last weekend (big double garage cloud9) and now I need to finish unpacking, go to Ikea (this afternoon - expecting sheer hell!), then go back to my flat and clean it before doing all the little jobs there in preparation for sale.

Off to Rugby on Monday (in the Caterham) to help a friend do an engine transplant in his Caterham.

I need to confirm it won't fit down the side of the house first. If it doesn't then I will be looking to sell it. I'll try to sort out attempting it this weekend.

Sorry to let you down Will, I've changed my plans. boxedin
Owens comments about busy roads made a lot of sense... When he mentioned the pub it sealed the deal for me drink
For future reference, I'm just round the corner from you in Kingswood (mid week only).
