Can I propose a breakfast meeting at The Touchdown Cafe, Wellesbourne Airfield on Saturday November 14th, meeting there at 08:30 ish, ready for doors opening at 09:00.

The full address for those that have not been before is

Wellesbourne Mountford Airfield
Loxley Lane
Wellesbourne
Warwickshire
CV35 9EU

Google Maps

The breakfast at the cafe is very good, so much so that some people drive hundreds of miles to join in.

If time permits, I will try and organise a route for a post breakfast drive - unless one of the locals is up for organising that. Failing that you are free to go off and explore the local area, visit the market at the airfield, or just go home. I appreciate this is the same weekend as the NEC Classic Motor Show, but the NEC is just over 20 miles / 35 minutes from the cafe and could therefore make a good stop off on route for those driving up from the south on the M40

Due to the size of the cafe and car park, we need to keep the numbers sensible, and I therefore suggest that about 20 cars max is appropriate.

Please add your name to the list below if you intend to join us. I will contact the cafe in advance to give them an idea of numbers.

How about a week later so Niiige can bring my "Eurotour" T shirt he's picking up at the Classic Show that weekend?



(that's of course if he can make it the following weekend)

Given the low take up for Saturday 14th and the updated weather forecast for heavy rain, I suggest we cancel this one and aim for another date.

Given that the thread title cannot be updated, I suggest a new thread with the correct date is started rather than trying to re-use this thread. I personally cannot make the 21st November, so feel slightly uneasy about putting myself down as the initiator of the date on the new thread, and obviously have no objections to you going without me as long as you are not too vocal about the quality of the bacon.
