Hi Guy,
I've had a word with Mike and we have agreed to share his room, leaving my room free for you. Its a double with a bath, booked for Fri and Sat night at the Brackenrigg Inn.

I'll see you tomorrow and give you the details. I don't propose telling the hotel until we arrive, to avoid any complications.

I am sure when Neil gets back from swanning around across the pond we will have the usual comprehensive agenda, rumour has it the man is such a legend he has even been asked to compile agendas for agenda compilation conferences around the globe

Lol I'm still swanning around here at present
Too many V8 engine noises and women's beach volleyball courts on the beaches . . . Ahem yes dear just coming in a sec
I made the rather fatal error of being back in LA on Memorial weekend . . . So everywhere is either deserted or totally packed lol

Mike and myself are trying to finalise things as we speak but it certainly won't be as "organised in advance" as last years lol but it will be fun and the scenery/setting is fantastic!

David at A8 parts - I will call you thurs regarding bringing a few bits that I've already spoken to Carl about and will also bring the other mirror glass with me for you.

No worries. LA sounds nice
If I get to Brackenrigg Inn for 9am on Satruday would that be good, or should I aim for earlier?

I'm probably going to see if I can make it up as far as Kendal on Friday night.

That will be fine you can join us for breakfast if you like - I will get a full agenda out on Thursday. It is likely we will aim for a late morning gathering then set off on the drive after a brisk lunch/ late brunch.

Can those of you who have donated raffle prizes please remember to bring them along, and can those of you who havnt yet donated a prize please consider donating one and let me know either by private message or on this thread - those who aren't coming need to donate a prize for sure!!!
