Cowley is EASY to get to. Head down the A40/Oxford bypass(!) You will get to a big roundabout. Take the third exit and straight along, turn left at the second set of traffic lights where the Mini plant as it is now should be in front of you. Then take the next right and head down this lane until you find an opening in the fence. That's the entrance to the socialclub and sports ground. EASY PEASY!:)

ok, atv, seeing as you know where it is and all, we will let you arrange the meeting there ok?
if you can go and see the people who run the social club and see if they mind us all congregating there, it would be appreciated.

Ok well well i still think xmas is the best time of year, as plenty of time to organise and book it in our calendars. There are two possible weekends for the xmas meet 6th/7th December, or 13th/14th December.
Ideally if ATV can sort out the meet at the social club that would be great.
Also if anyone knows any good pubs that serve good nosh let us know as we could book somewhere for xmas lunch.
We could also have a competition for the best decorated car for xmas? What do people think about that?
Lindsey:) :D
