Are there any meets coming up guys. I either keep missing them or they are too far away for me to travel to. Not much seems to happen in my neck of the woods - Stratford upon Avon, apart from the BBWF at the weekend and the Griff growl in a couple of weeks.

Dont mind the Littleton Hagley run if you come to The Bowling Green, but not the other way as it makes a very long trip for me just to get there.

Anyone fancy setting up a run and a meet somewhere, perhaps for a drink and lunch or something?

Hi Marrie Ann - just looked at your profile and I'm sure I have spotted you a few times coming out of Stratford on the Banbury road.

Nice looking S3 by the way - was it the one for sale at the petrol station at the centre of Halford village?

Kind regards

I'm quite often in my jods & boots. There just doesn't seem to be anyone round here that wants to come out to play.

Hi Marrie-ann,

There are lots of meets and shows at the moment if you are prepared to travel a little. In the world of TVR's you get used to going on long trips. You can't expect every event to be a short drive away. It depends what you enjoy doing with your TVR - just showing it, or driving it. I prefer the latter, so if you ever fancy joining the Warks/West Mids crew on some of our runs you would be more than welcome to come along. We are off to Chimfest on 12th, Griff Growl on 19th and a cracking drive up to the Peak District on Sept 8th.
Are you going to Rockingham this weekend? Quite a few of us will be there.
Also if you come along to the Bulls Head in Meriden on 19th we will be driving down to the Griff Growl in convoy. Would be a nice little run out for you.

Wasn't expecting all events to be on my doorstep, would just be nice to get a local hoon organised. Forgot about the Bulls Head thing (senior moment) when is that? My grey matter recalls the 3rd Sunday of every month at noon. Is that right?

And yes, I could make it to this one for a drive to the Griff Growl, its just that I live 1/2 mile up the road from Ettington where its being held, still be nice to jon you guys for a drive though.

Spot on with the date and time of the Bulls Head meets. Would be good to get an S in the car park, we don't get many. When you say local, what kind of area are you thinking of? Would south of the M42 be within range? Know a few people from that area, so they might be up for a mini hoon sometime.

Hi Paul - sorry to be a little of thread but having just bought a Chimeara after selling the 400SE, I would be interested in the Chimfest run out if you have any details planned yet.

Kind regards

Yeah thats fine, the Littleton one is ok as well if you come down to the Bowling Green, thats a good hours run for me to get there and a real nice drive.

Think it would be nice to take advantage of the god weather now its here, enjoy a natter and a cool drink somewhere.

Marrie-ann, I'm looking at another mid-week evening meet for next week. Thinking of going to The Red Lion at Bradley Green on the B4090. Do you know it? Will confirm on Friday.

No I didnt manage to get to the BBWF though did pass loads out and about. Thanks to those that made the effort to get my attention when I did get spotted.

No not doing Rockingham, only just getting into this TVR meeting lark and didnt realise that it was ticket only so missing out there.

Soundchaser - Not familiar with that pub, will have a gander later when I finish work.

Going to Griff Growl though, had meal at Chutneys tonight where you're all going on the Friday night and will make an effort to join you all at the BBQ.

Thanks guys, I'll bear those meets in mind. I need to get it in to the garage to get the new water pump and hoses fitted as well so next week could be a nice busy time with it.
