Default A8 Parts Open Day / Northern Regional Meet

All,

Another date for your 8 activities calendar. A8Parts are organising an open day on weekend of 22nd October. It would also be a good opportunity to have a northern regional meet for those who live Ooooop North.

David of A8Parts has proposed to throw open the doors to the facility, offer the opportunity to use the ramp, look at upgrades, peruse the stock and will provide a buffet lunch. They also have a aircon re-gassing capability and lots of tantalising upgrades.

The forum will organise a cruise to a hostillery in the afternoon/evening if enough people are interested.

The date has ben added to the events list.

More details to follow.
