unfortunately i missed the m-car rally today due to work commitments but will be free sunday!!!!!:D

[Alan the Vanner]

If you mean with the wedges at Burford, then I'm in!
Unfortunately Lynz is far, far from completion, so I'll be down there in one of my Toyotas. I think I'll bring down my collection of "work in progress" photos as well.

[malcsmaesty]

[Firefly]

no idea, we will probably do what we always do,leave as soon as all the kids and steve are in the car!!:laugh: :laugh:

[Firefly]

thanks for that m8,does it matter what time u actually get there? or is it a case of u get there when u get there?

also, will anyone be able to show us the way out of oxford?

everytime we stopped there on the way to blackpool, we could never get out again!!

[malcsmaesty]

can direct you back to birmingham if thats any help?!!!:rolleyes:
just looked at the prices and it says £7.50 for adults and £5.00 for kids and oaps,under 3's are free as is car parking.

Shouldn't be difficult. But why would you want to be in Oxford anyway?
(Unless it's shopping or something?!);)

[Firefly]

well, we don't know oxford or surrounding areas that well.
what i meant was,the 3 times we went 2 visit mother in blackpool, we stopped in oxford, and could not find our way back out! also, my brother in law and my mother herself all got stuck in oxford. getting in is easy enough, its getting out again thats the problem!
we didn't even go that far in,only to the first pub off the motorway, but we still couldn't find our way back out!
i know,i'll ask my m8 billy, he lives there!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

[Alan the Vanner]

Aha! going to the pub! Now I'm with you!:laugh:
I was thinking (gives me a headache, you know?!) Maybe we should have a meeting at the ex Rover plant at Cowley. There's a sports ground right beside it where the NSVA had their nationals event for two years running. (That's when I joined):D

[Firefly]

well, if bandycat has a good day on sunday,there won't be any stopping him when it comes to meets!
i remember you suggested that before and didn't get much response.
i'll tell you what,you come to our bournemouth meet,and we'll come to your oxford meet!!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

[Alan the Vanner]

Knackers! I've been called up to do a driving job! Mildenhall trip again! I'll see if I can make it to the show in the afternoon. How long will the show go on for?:(

[MGTurbo]

What are you delievering in Mildenhall?

I'll be at Santa Pod on Sunday, not that anyone on here really cares about that because it just encourages bad driving..

Gareth

[Beaker]

er since when did santa pod encourage bad driving? I have a friend that does drag racing down there and i keep meaning to go. Is supposed to be a fun day out

[tony]

i have been in contact with coswold today the prices are,the driver gets in free every body else has to pay there standard prices you have to tell them on the gate you are going to the car show the show runs from around 10 to around 3 ,4 pm

[Firefly]

right, so if we manage to get a remortgage on our rented home,
the next question is..
once you get in to this park,are you able to go round all of it or do you have to stay where the cars are?

(before anyone gives me a funny comment, i am from pompey, and according to bandycat and family,that does mean i'm thick!)
and if anyone agrees i will get the 6.57 involved!
so there!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
