Seeing Sal's busy today I'll keep the ball rolling...

15th/16th July - Sal, Ally, Edinburgh_Mark, Laura, Owen, Rohan, Paul, Brasco, + ???

Roo?, Murf?, Piper?, Fraz?, JohnT?, Groomus?, Graham?, Adam & Sarah?, Tiberius? (I think that's everyone that's expressed interest)

Sounds like 15th/16th July could be good for quite a few of us...
Let's try and get a date set soon so it doens't end up too last minute.
Fred - 1995 480 2.0i ES - Dark Green Metallic (106,000 miles)
Dave - 1993 480 2.0i ES - Steel Grey Metallic (148,000 miles)

Well as long as you Scots don't mind the smell of leeks and sheep, I might head up with Ad and Brasco.

Although which one smells of which I forget now... :lol:

15/16th July probably free, so 75% count me & the GT in.

I think 10.75 cars would definitely qualify us for midi-meet status... ;-)

Roo?, Piper?, Fraz?, Groomus?, Graham?, Adam & Sarah?, Tiberius?

Anyone heard from Roo recently? Just noticed it's about 3 weeks since he posted anything - hope all is well...

He's fine, a sheep chewed through the phone line to the villages only call box so he's out of touch a bit :D
Seriously though, i think he's pretty busy with work.

Theres usually a couple of spare 480's kicking about here Rich so you can borrow one of them :)
Dont think Adam would let you go to a 480 meet in a Ford! ;)
