Meet up for beer after London Thunder 2006
Discussion
I'm certainly after a beer after the event.
I think it was mentioned that the ace café may be a little small but in the update #1 thread SimBad-assmf said the following:
If it helps I may know of a venue that could cater for everyone and their cars after the rally. Its a licensed establishment very close to the M25, north London. No names as I havn't approached the management yet.I'll make some enqs if thats OK and get back to you as soon as I know one way or another.

Brands hatch car park? I reckon Jonathan Palmer would like to be involved and it's good publicity for Brands. It is a little way out of town though. Alternatively, isn't there a big pub in twickenham where rugby folk go before a big match?
oooh like the thinking - what about Rockingham or Bedford Autodrome
Dunsfold Aerodrome in Surrey is where they film top gear.... it's less than an hour from London. Then again I know the northern supporters will have driven the furthest so it's only fair the beer is on their way home I reckon. So Bedford Autodrome or even Silverstone might be spot on. There's certainly the room. But an airfield nearer London might be better.
All I hope is that we manage to get 250 TVRs to drive down through Hyde park. What a sight that would be! It would be like a dream come true. A world where everyone drives a TVR!

Have just spoken to Alex at Brands Hatch - they would be delighted to see us all there. They have licensed bar, catering etc. They have a Track Day going on that day (only one TVR on the list! 
). He suggested that if the timings worked, that we might like to get all the cars on the circuit for a parade lap! 
However, very much a timing thing because it would have to be whilst the Track Day customers were lunching!
They obviously have plenty of space for parking etc. and it is secure. For anyone who doesn't know the whereabouts - they are just off junction 2/3 M25, near the Dartford Tunnel.
What does anyone think?

Welcome on board Nicky, looks like you have found yourself a job, excellent work.
can you PM me please, with a contact number.
I have a meeting for the next couple fo hours, but will call you later.
many thanks
Only problem with these suggestions is that they are sufficiently far out of town in each direction that you will definitely lose quite a few people who are prepared to give a couple of hours but not a whole day to the cause.
Occupying all lanes down the Mall would be good but I'm at a loss as to a big central car park and drinking establishment, unless someone can suggest one of the megastores (is there something more central than the IKEA complex?). Excel I suppose, but it's a bit orientally located.
