Now that there are more M12's on the road and, if enough peeps are interested and available, I'd like to suggest a south-east region get-together. As a starting point, is anyone interested this Sunday 23rd for a lunchtime meet and afternoon drive to invigorate the local villagers:

"WOT'S THAT?!"
"DUNNO!!!"
"THERE'S ANOTHER ONE!!!"
"BLIMEY, THERE'S LOADS OF EM!!!"
"LOOK, THAT ONE'S TURQUIOSE!!!" - sorry Martin, not yet mate!
"LOOK, THAT ONE'S GOING SIDEWAYS!!!" - sorry Justin!!!

I'd suggest a pub with a large car park and a BBQ (weather permitting!) and will await the interest level before making any further suggestions.

PS - of course, this would be open to all comers and not just Nobility! :-)

Sorry, got to go to a BBQ.

Would rather go out in the Noble, but I'd be hunted down and shot if I didn't go to this particular barbie.

Martin, Virginia Water is OK but the car park is non Noble-friendly gravel! I also suggested the following on the owners club forum:

- Pantiles in Bagshot (has a large car park).
- M40 services (past High Wycombe, down the hill - can't remember the name?) then on into Oxfordshire
- Somewhere around bedford for the A5 run
- Brooklands (fitting!)
- Guildford - a blast down to Goodwood???

Seems to be a few people around - let's see how many we get later in the week...

I can make it now (subject to ferocious hangover) - BBQ is on Saturday night.

It seems I may not be able to make it now as my mates have organised a "leaving" party for me. My brother and two of my mates have boats so it looks like we'll be off down the Thames in a floatilla to an island they know where we'll have a big barby/party, staying overnight in the boats and tents. As about 25 blokes have said they're going it should be a lark. By the time you'll all be meeting up I'll probably be waking up with the mother of all hangovers. Still, if it does'nt come off for any reason I'll see you wherever. M.

not planning some wheelspinning, doughnuts or other such frivolity are we...

Given the locations I'm afraid I'll have to pass (I'd only be turning up in the bottom rung of the ph ladder alfa 156 v6 anyway). Besides, wife and kids won't let me (haven't seen enough of them lately)

Anyone driving up to the motor show on the 27th? See you there!

Weather should be good but the turnout for Sunday is low - possibles/maybes so far are:

Me in 3R
Marlon?
Ed?
Martin?
Dave Williams?

Let me know who's around, along with your car type,(today, if possible) and we can then suggest a meeting point?

Please enlighten me to the where abouts of Pantiles if that is where we are meeting ? As it sounds like this place could be south of Barcalona. Weather will be good so we want a good turn out for the south east! Including you Martin in your Vehical (sorry bin down the pub).

Billy, Pantiles is a pub on the A30 London Road south of Bagshot, Surrey, close to M3/J5 but we haven't decided on that as a venue yet (or even who's around)so don't go down there on your own or you might end up being Billly-no-Mates!!! LOL

Apparently, Martin is planning on a hangover so might not be available!
