Some of us are going to a rolling road day at Fareham this Saturday, if you want to pop down and see Martin's face when his car's on the rollers, it really is a picture. ;)

Seriously, If anybody wants to make a softies meet here, that'll be great. I can't make the usual Sunday (17th) and other members have issues with other weekends so rather than cancelling the softies meet for the first time in 15 months, let's have it here? What do you guys recon?

It's good for us, as we're at Avon the following weekend.

I'll probably have to do-one shortly after we finish on the rollers any way so I'll be happy with some digestives lol.

Post 583416 by oblark on 2013-03-12 09:10:18

We could always go to the vine, its only a short blast down the m27

Post 583419 by M-R-P on 2013-03-12 09:23:14

Tempting - Depends on how long I spend at the RR, I don't have much free time at the moment ;) How did you get on with that pink stuff Rob?

I'm hoping to do the usual few hours, I just can't make it an all-day-er ;)

Post 583432 by M-R-P on 2013-03-12 10:11:08

I'll bring the camcorder mate ;) Is the paint damaged or just the top coat? I still have some of that clear left. I might be able to flash it over on Saturday.

Post 583453 by 850 chris on 2013-03-12 11:32:48

theres a nice place in lee on solent called the inn by the see or you could go to the cocked hat in gosport if any one interested in them i can get post codes there only about 5 to 10 mins away

Post 583454 by M-R-P on 2013-03-12 11:37:45

In the 14 months of the southern meet, it's always been at the Vine so you might have trouble pulling us away lol. D.I.L.L.I.G.A.F lol - another KBW fan ;) Hope you caught the last UK tour, there won't be another :(

Post 583455 by 850 chris on 2013-03-12 11:38:14

also can watch the rugby there lol

Post 583456 by 850 chris on 2013-03-12 11:39:43

thats a fair one southern bloke but just thought i would mention it as they are closer to the rr day

Post 583462 by M-R-P on 2013-03-12 11:51:18

There's a wonky telly at the Vine in a side room that shows the rugby - usually. I wouldn't mind a meet at the cocked hat sometime, it's not bad there.

Post 583516 by 850 chris on 2013-03-12 18:13:11

yeah sounds good about the cocked hat once this months meet is over we could always arrange one for the cocked hat also i am trying to organise a group of all car enthusiasts to meet up on aug bank holiday for the southern motor show at stokes bay
