Spring meet and autojumble

26 Mar 2016, 10:30am
What time are you guys planning to meet. I will probably just visit but it will be nice to say hello and hopefully Richard will show me his knob. I will be looking for a good looking knob while I am there.

Gates open at 10 to the public
We will be there earlier as we have exhibitors passes :)
26 Mar 2016, 10:37am
I will head up in the morning then See you there
26 Mar 2016, 1:31pm
I believe you are looking forward to seeing my knob?



Are there any others on this forum going?

I will show you mine if you show me yours. I will be updating your thread with my own effort as it develops

According to my weather app, things will improve tomorrow :)
Thankfully

What you mean that the hailstones will stop...it will be just torrential rain then?

I've got the Ray bans ready just in case the sun pops out for 5 minutes.

Could be worse, my even get the roof off.

Today - partly sunny with a t-shower?

What other beverages are available as rain?

Sorry I missed you .
Thanks for the kind words, did you notice that I only had one windscreen wiper?

Jason I did not !

Was too busy deciding whether to run in front of you and say hi. Did not want to have blood stains on the polished paint work :)

Anyway glad that you have a closer fitting bonnet too

Hi Dave
You must have got there after I'd left.
Sorry I missed you

I had been there is the cold and rain since 9.15am so had enough by 1.30pm. Also as Jason said I had a bad morning. I have 3 of my car collection in two Clarke portable garages and was awakened at 7.00pm by storm Katie. The garages came off their mountings and ripped their ratchet straps apart landing on and causing severe damage to the cars. Many thousands of pounds in resprays as they were trashed. Anyway some people lost their roofs off their houses so I guess I was lucky...although it did not feel like that at the time.
:doh:

I am sorry I missed you too.

I left just before Richard but had a slightly less traumatic Storm Katie - one of our wheelie bins was blown over

I'm sorry to here that. I hope it was not the re-cycling one. No damage I hope!

Slight scratch on the edge but I will call it "patina"
29 Mar 2016, 7:39pm
Will run into you chaps another time I am sure.

Richard sorry to hear about the storm damage - that sucks big bloody time.

If that had happened to me I would have been tempted to stay back at the ranch.

Good luck with the recovery

Looked great from a distance guys - just missed you (again).

Adam's exhaust sounded wicked too - and the wheels are a good touch.
