Fancy a pre-Chrimbo mini meet?
M54 services meet and maybe on to Shifnal to a pub (with a safe car park) for a bite to eat? (Odd fellows? Horns of Boningale? Other suggestions?)

If you're interested put your name down and preferred day....

1) Pete (Anytime except this Sat)
2) Kip
3) Hadyn

:Popcorn:
Pete

[edit]
Sun 18th 14:00

Still think it's best to meet at the M54 J4 services as it's easy for folks to find for 14:00. Leave for fodder at 14:30? I'll PM everyone my mobile number a couple of days before if you're going to be late.

The Wrekin View is pretty good and very close in Telford, quick 2 min blast up the M54. It also runs food all day. About 6/8 quid for a massive carvery meal, plus we can see out the window to where the cars are parked.

Great idea Pete, would prefer a Saturday late lunch, I'm not much use by Sundays :friday:

Shiffnal sounds good to me, just try not to get stuck behind me again Pete as I still don't have a centre LED brake light fitted :scare: If anyone has a spare one please feel free to bring it along :whistle:

Should be fine. It's just a carvery that runs for ages anyway so it's not like they need to preorder food or anything. Just depends on the seating arrangements.

Burna
18-12-05, 11:10
For once on a Sunday I feel quite fresh :) So get you lazy hungover arse's out of bed and don't be late :cool:

Pete

The messiah of sat nav!:rlol:

Hadyn - I didn't look last night. Will get the exact tyre fitment for you tonight but I know they're definately 100% certainly wider on the rear than the front. ;)
I'm in no rush to move them or whatever so just give me shout anytime you've got some time to drop by and see them if you want.

hadyn
19-12-05, 13:01
OK Pete, dont check the tyre size, check the centre of the wheel where you should see 16x9 or 16x8 there. They may be 16x8s with 245 rubber stretched on to them.

Kip
19-12-05, 22:04
Cheers lads n lasses had a great day.
Am looking 4ward to the next one in the new year.
