As self appointed unofficial social secretary (who never turns up to his own events) I figured I couldn't let the opportunity for a meet pass by before the end of the driving season.

On the premis that if planned far enough ahead, (volcanoes and exploding BMW's permitting) I might actually turn up to something, I present the TM Sunday Lunch opinionator thread and poll to determine if there is appetite for a sunday lunch meet sometime before the roads get salted.

If you fancy it, pick the date(s) you think are viable and we'll take it from there.

Cheers,
Rich

sunday = fine if someone can pick us up in a train station,
we'ld take the Eurostar from BXL

3 and 10 october I will be in :


the water

5th Sept and 3rd Oct are Prescott dates (with the Oct date being a round of the SpeedMog Championship).
Steam Ploughing on 25th Sept.
That only leaves 10th & 17th Oct for me (my votes cast for those dates ).

Cheers,

weekends are tricky, mid week is better for me

In view of Graham and 1560's comments I have gone for 17th October, but maybe we need a midweek meet also? Though October may be too soon after summer holidays and St Tropez?

I've voted for 17th October but it depends 'where' and my skilful lobbying of MrsW. Weekday is possible for me, and I would certainly vote for a factory visit with lunch following.

I wouldn't mind tagging along for a lunch plus Factory Visit. Mondays and Tuesdays are a bit of a midweek no-no for me but Weds or Fris are fine- with Thursdays at a push ( I'm out of the UK on 15th Oct and then again bewteen 20th-24th Oct but OK otherwise)

PS if we go to the Factory, do I have to behave?

17th is also the day after the speedmog Castle Coombe event

just don't start to play with clay lying around,
or sit in slightly too big chassis' to suit Aero's
or ad lines on dashboard-drawings that could suit american clients

The 10th is Brooklands Morgan Day again?

I favour a factory visit if thats a goer?.
