Hants TVRCC "Great Brighton Blast" Sun 28/12/03

[T88CAN]

Hi All
Just a quick note about the above event.The details, briefly are, we will meet up at Wickham Square (note not Bishops Waltham) at 10.30/10.45 ish with a get away time of 11am, ish, I will be getting a volunteer to plan a decent route?? A27 via Lewes/Newhaven is a nice run? (Any takers?)
David Pennington(RO) possibly can`t make it but he has put some details on the Hants TVRCC web site? We will stop at the start of the Speed trail section on the sea front were you can have a stroll to walk off some Turkey or find a coffee bar or we could find a pub if you want?As most of you have indicated that it`s the Drive you want we can play this bit "by ear"Hopfully the weather will be kind and we will have a decent turn out at a tradionally "boring" bit of the Xmas/New year break. Any queries/questions please post or E-mail me off line, Have a merry christmas and i will see you on the 28th Tony (a.k.a T88CAN)

I've got to stop having a life, for one reason or another I always have something else on when the Hants crew have a run. Goodwood was my last time out!

Have a great day boys, but Tony, isn't Lewes/Newhaven the other side of Brighton?

Yeh it is Mark with a very nice section of A27 dual carriage way with no speed cameras and a nice coast road in from Newhaven, Sorry you can`t make it maybe next time

As this site has featured in Autocar and The Times recently .... I thought I'd add a small disclaimer.

As many of you know Tony has organised a few runs. These are usually on A roads, which will have other road users. As it can be difficult for everyone to keep together, Tony usually agrees stops, to allow people to regroup. Have a fun day and keep it safe. - We'll see you at the next halt.

Two groups of friends lives have been shattered by two (non TVR) road accidents in the last few months.

Well done Dave - wise words.

Only been on one of Tony's runs :slapwrist: but can say how extremely well organised it was.

Enjoy yourselves guys.

Been on a couple of Tony's runs before and yes they are very well organised.

Unfortunately we cant make the 28th - family duties on Scotland.

Have a great trip and we'll see you all in the New Year

We did this last year in the pouring rain & had over 20 cars on the seafront. Any idea what time you exect to arrive??

And if I remember correctly the bl**dy West pier fell down that day, 29th December. Guess what? they tried to blame us!

Did you get my mail?

[ncs]

Got it Al but my reply came back as undelivered, I know Im not the only one struggling to get in touch with you.

Oh no...does this mean we're going to have to talk to each other

Not about much at the moment due to poorly parent, will try again soon.

Strange! via P/H works BTW.

Thoughts are with you mate.

Might even make this one after all.
I am currently in negotiations with the Procurement & Entertainment Department as we are supposed to be at friends on that day.
My argument stands that we saw them more recently than you lot, it's not holding much water at the moment but has to be worth persuing.

FAQ here

I'll add more details as I get them.

Hi cosmoschick yeah shame i cant make this one - especially now it seems its going to be quiet a gathering. Will definitely need to make one in the new year - hope we can meet up then.

The lesser spotted Paul might be able to get a pass for the day. I'll ask the boss later...! Hopefully the weather won't be as foul as last year either.
