Oh what glorious days we are having. Anyone up for roof down action?

The start and end is:
The Greyhound
Cow Lane
Ashley
WA15 0QR

Meet at 7pm for starting at 7.30pm.

Everyone's welcome – the run is between forty five mins to an hour long and the bar is lovely for a natter before or after. It is a set route that loops round to the Greyhound for the end. Tim the landlord is lovely, and loves having car people in.

Any questions please ask and if you are coming copy and paste the list below:

I just fixed a recurring alternator problem yesterday (again), only to find the mounting point for my front valance broken. If I have re-fibreglassed it in time I should be along too.

My old man is away in the lake district this time so I may either just be there for the start/end or ask the pace to be reduced slightly. I don't feel entirely comfortable driving at PH pace in a car I don't fully know with only a few weeks experience on roads I haven't done before. (I don't want to stuff it, there's not much in the way of safety)

If anyone wants a passenger ride just say and I'll happily take you for a spin.

Caroline- you're top of the list.

Slomax, if you don't want to do the route you're more than welcome to jump in my passenger seat. I won't be offended if you get a more exciting seat offer and pick them getmecoat

Jaik- thanks for the offer, ill see if i get any other offers (awaits someone with a 600bhp ultima to put thier names down on the list to beg...) smile . I will decide on the day, I may well end up driving it, i haven't decided yet. If i do drive i certainly wont be chucking it into the corners with quite the aggressiveness as my old man last month, although as there will only be one person in it, pick up and braking will be improved especially as a decent size male is aprox. 20% of the overall weight of the car...
