Hi - Sorry, we're having a route change and will not be meeting people at Sparkford, Macdonalds. Please don't wait for me there.
Despite A303 looking best route for us ( I thought), miles out of our way to do that.

I am going to Salisbury, A30 to Shaftesbury and then to Sherborne Castle so will see you there. Leaving home at 7am so should be at Sherborne by 8.30 / 9am.

See you there

Jackie

I'll probably get there about 9. The meet is at Sparkford at 830, about 9 miles north of the Castle if that helps Nathan.

It helps knowing I'll still be asleep!

I'll see you guys about lunchtime, I guess.

You all stocked up on burgers?

Felix my old mucker, I've taken your place if thats ok then? What time are we meeting at McDonalds then?

This whole thread has been very confusing to read

The above list copied from Gordon in the last post is wrong aswell as Jackie is on it twice?

I've even persuaded the other half to come down. Probably a bad idea

we will be driving close if not by sherbourne on the way to sparkford ian so will still see you at 7.10 at ower ok mate

Sat Jul 19, 2008 5:42 pm

Cheers Iain, the list has been well messed up along the way with numbers being reduced then increased etc.

I do admit I didn't check properly after talking with Jackie, when she said she would still go to Sherborne, and I just added her name to the list.

You lost me there Dave ? WTF is Ower ?

I am meeting up with Pimpmobil and Adit at Rownhams at 0700 the we will push on to meet Bomber at Sparkford at 0830.

Seems the majority of others are going straight to Sherborne.

Bomber has paid for all the tickets and we need to reimburse him tomorrow - iirc its around a £10 each.

Gazebo going up, chairs etc, bring makings if you can and anything else to make the day comfortable. No blow up sheep though Gord.

Still nothing heard from Chris P ?????

Wayne u got satnav in your pimprider ?

Sat Jul 19, 2008 6:57 pm

Sorry, no blow up sheep, can't oblige there mate... I'm sure Nathan can bring one though...

I've got the gazebo, 6 chairs, my folding pub-style table, some teabags, lunch, 2 passengers... and b*gger all space left...

I'll be going straight to the Castle.

Sat Jul 19, 2008 7:04 pm

I think I might just go straight to the castle. Who, what and where do I have to pay?

Sat Jul 19, 2008 7:54 pm

OK Dave - see you at Wilton, the first entrance on( left) just beyond entrance to Wilton Shopping Village (on right). 7.30 am.

Jackie

Is the fee £10 / car?

Lisa, Paul, if you read this, 8am at the Avon Country Park if you want to convoy.
We'll go A35, Bere Regis, Dorchester direction.

See you all there guys.

Sun Jul 20, 2008 8:55 pm

An absolutely WONDERFUL day, an amazing turnout of cars of all ages and makes, lovely grounds, the castle to look around,

...and even stalls for Tan to spend my money at...

Well done to the guys who managed to help me put up the gazebo without instructions... Iain gave them to me to photocopy, I left them at home...

Nice to see some faces I haven't seen for a while, Nathan & family and Chris P and some of the guys I met at Hestercombe last year, and also nice to meet some new faces, Jeremy, John, Francis etc...

An excellent day enjoyed by all.

Knackered now, so I'll sort some pics tomorrow.

Sun Jul 20, 2008 9:52 pm

Great day !

Turnout first class by the Zoners, good to see faces new and old, and even a Welsh one lol !!

Gordon got first prize for forgetting the gazebo instructions, nice one son ................

Magellan (you know who you are you old scummer) gets second prize for the the strangest and longest route from Salisbury to Sherborne !!

Well done Bomber.

The quality and diversity of cars on show was awesome, not often you see over 30 Ferraris together let alone the hundreds of other cars of all ages, shapes and sizes.

I forgot to give you your CD!

Sun Jul 20, 2008 10:14 pm

No probs Nathan I'll swap it for a copy of the Gazebo instructions at the RR meet at Fritz.
