Well done mate, it would be a real shame if you didn't make it after all your help with sorting the castle grounds for us.

Look forward to meeting you, whichever car you bring.

Take it easy.

Dave, I don't even know where the castle IS let alone the route to get there.
By all means call me and tell me to roll wagons, but please don't ask me to lead them in...

How many do we have that will know the route?
Davidt, Spook, Wayne, how many others?
(Sorry, having a mental block as to who's local round there)

Oi, no misunderstanding again. ... :cry:
Feel free to call me, mate. I can get the convoy moving, I just don't know the route.

Spook and DavidT and Wayne know the route well.

I will turn up with Mandie and then shoot off early from the Hill to pick up Shelia (about 2.45) and then Gaszman can do as he says and ring Gordon or Spook.

Will attempt to turn up at shortly after 3pm but Gaszman can you ring me and confirm cars have arrived at Porchester Castle ?

Please leave two slots in the centre of the line up, that is very important !

Weather forecast is not good so plan for rain !

:D

Hi all,
I am very sorry and need to apologise to you all on two (2) counts.
When I used the word "modded" in my previous post, about my own car, it seem's to have caused a bit of a stir. Oppp's.........It was never my intention....I was only sharing my ride with you all.

More importantly.......Chris (my wife) was contacted by Donna (my sister) today. Guys......I am SO VERY SORRY that I tried to gate crash this event. Donna has informed us that this is an invite only and for E30 guys, my Mum and Shonagh. We'll stop away but hope you all have a really cracking day out...that you all make it to the event safley.......and home again too.

I also want to thank you all again for the fantastic effort your all making for Malc.

Take care and happy trouble free motoring for you all.

Jim & Chris.

Jim & Chris - as said above, you're more than welcome & I for one hope you'll come :) Yes it will be nearly all E30 people, but a few of us won't be in E30s anyway... Be warned though, you will want an E30 by the end of the day winkeye

Jon - the chipfatmobile smells goooood :cool: & it even does 70 on the motorway at a push! :lol:

Please DO attend!

I'm sure Malcolm would want you there, everyone is welcome, the 'no modded' cars bit seems to have got mis-interpreted... This is not an invite only event, we are not that snobbish!

It would be great to see you all, Malcolm was a great guy and respected by many people, lets hope for a good meet.

The photo shoot is for the BMWs which Malcolm associated himself with and it seems fitting to do this.

Jim, be there ! You have an offer of a lift from a trusted Zoner !

Post up if you would like a lift from DAVIDT !!

I'll third that. It doesnt matter what car you drive or arrive in. This is an event in memoriam of your stepdad and you have more right than any of us to be there in my opinion.

As has been said, the comments made were strictly with regards the photoshoot which is 'an e30zone thang' as a mark of respect for Monsport's passion for e30's and useage of the zone.

But to exclude a family member from coming along to see this show of appreciation for Monsport would be absurd. :wink:

That you don't have an e30 (yet winkeye ) is an insignificant detail.

Crikey this thread is long!!

Gonna catch up on the reading later....

I intend to be there and I can't be in a 30 'cos I ain't got one :o:

I'll stay quietly at the back in my youthful 39 ! :D


1/2 hour later..........have just read through this post and, for the local guys, if there is a snag with getting into the castle, then does anybody know if the "castle shore open space" which you have to drive past to get to the castle, is good for cars?? If I have time today I may nip down and see. Just an idea chaps.

looks like a good meet is on the cards too...

Be nice to see you there, as someone who knew Malc, it'd be a shame if you missed it.
Cheers, see you tomorrow

Look for the burger van on the left coming up from the A3. Pub will be on the right.
There is - from memory - another pub on the right at the bottom of a dip, layby at the top of the hill just past it.
Its above there mate. Are you bring the 330 chariot?

Edit: No rowhams isn't the burger bash place. Aim to get to the burgman by 1-2 :thumb:

Edit 2: shit you don't have satnav! Plug it into google maps for directions I guess :)

We'll lead you in when we join you.

Ok, I'll be waiting - J11 of the M27 at 12.30.

Yes, bringing the 330T. It'll be nice to put some more names to faces and see some old & new friends. Zimmer bimmer, our parts dealer is jumping in with me as well as my son who is 7, also hoping another local zoner I know is going to jump in.

Come rain or shine (or AA truck) it will be a great day.
