First post updated with locations and times

I know we don't have an MR2, but the AE86 has done it's engine for the second time in a year, so it's off the road.

If Mark has an MX5 we'll come in that, otherwise it's the Yaris.

Doesn't matter what you turn up in, it's the turning up that counts

true Martin, very true

[Mrs Blackpool]

A very big +1 to this, if you only make one meet this year the Blackpool lights run is one of the best!

That means dogs in the beer garden are allowed. So we can bring Indy if the weather is good.

I'll find a dog friendly pub for November!

It'd be good to sit out if the weather holds

[Lauren]

Yes, would be nice, but I don't think the forecast is good.

Hi guys sorry I won't be there tonight I'm down in Birmingham tonight hopefully picking up my Tubby tomorrow. Have a good night though everyone. Hopefully I'll make a meet before the end of the year.

[Lauren]

Really sorry, literally just got in. We looked to come straight to the pub but you guys would already be there and it's going to take us 50 mins to get there and then we have to drive back as well later which makes it a lot of driving!

Gutted, but had to work late tonight, so no pub food for me.

[jasper]

Sorry, forgot to let you guys know that I won't be able to make it...guess you know that by now I've had drive down to Newbury for a meeting in the morning...

Hope you all had a good time.
