There is a breakfast club meet at the end of the month, RAF Cosford, much better location, plenty of space, sarnies, coffee etc and loads of chariots :D
Fair enough but the land lady seems to think it will be fine she told me sundays arnt that busy and she is not bothered if we fill the car park.

Also we dont need to let them know we are coming we can just turn up :D

How many spaces is there mate? Might give us an idea of how big it is rather than looking on google...

How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

Looks good to me.

I'll probably not be able to attend again due to work mind. But it looks good! :cry:

Mind you if I've got enough notice maybe I can book it off now that I've got passed my first couple of weeks newbie-ness.

I reckon we'd be OK there with up to about 25 cars taking into account how big the carpark is and that there are bound to be other cars there on the day - wouldn't want to risk much more than that as people will be annoyed if they travel a long way and then can't park up.

I think the biggest turnout we had was for the first Carvery meet - probably 30+ cars turned up on the day but we probably only had 20 or so there for the whole meet due to people arriving and leaving early.

Kieran the RAF cosford meet is also good if you fancy a quick blast down the M6 - if the weather is good there is a very wide variety of stuff there - lots of nice stuff and lots of turds to laugh at as well - just means getting up early to get there for 9am !

I'm more than happy to try it out, if I'm off I'll do my best to make it, I enjoy a mini road trip 8)

Doing early starts is no problem for me, I sometimes start work at 2.30 AM - might do the next Cosford meet.
