Sod it!
Last year I foolishly suggested 20 November for the Coventry meet, forgetting that this was SWMBO's birthday.
This year I've been making plans for Stratford, forgetting that 15th September is our wedding anniversary.
I might just have been able to sell the trip to SWMBO, were it not for the fact that she is flying in from Russia especially for three days, and will probably not want to hang out with a load of electro-mechanical obsessives....
But I'll try...... Maybe see you there.
I suppose I could engineer a massive row on Friday evening, and storm out of the house for three days....

While I'm not suggesting for a second that your good lady wife is anything other than the perfect woman, I always found in previous relationships if I couldn't get what I wanted then it was a simple 4 step process to make her come round to my way of thinking!Oscar wrote:.

2; back of head
3; roll of carpet
4; mendips
Of course you may have to find another location since I'm rapidly filling the mendips up!

Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!
Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Nice one Doc, only if I did that it would just annoy her even more
Vanny, you know Ken makes the most sense on here, it`s time you heeded his advice
Kitch, what estate is this? I didn`t realise you had one, sorry.
All, Sundays from now on could be tricky (junior football season starts this weekend) though I wouldn`t rule out a Saturday. Only thing is I might not have a BX to go in, least not a roadworthy one.

Screw you all! My car survived major over heating (no water in the rad for in excess of 11 miles at 40 mph at best) and is running almost fine again! so Nerghhhhhh
On the plus side, god i love driving the BX, what is it that makes the AX and the pug 405 suck so much! However, sadly, i think my second favourite ride might actually by the Ford Transit or maybe i just like to cut people up ?

Hurrah! Well played that man!
The boy Fearn and i will be there all weekend, and i think Oilly will be too! We've had a crash course in behaviour at these things and are armed with stakes, bunting and red & white tape, we will be VERY easy to find im sure!
I'll be going Sunday. From past experience, that's when most of the action is, and when most of the bargains are. Saturday generally seems to consist of trips off site.Oscar wrote:OK, SWMBO has given agreement in principle. Let's see how that works out in practice. Who's going on Saturday and are there any plans to meet?
