Here’s a fun fact for you.

Around 2010 I sold a white 3.2 cab to the woman about whom You’re Beautiful was written.

She was indeed quite beautiful.

Given their schedules this year and our experience of weather we are thinking about missing Autumn and scheduling a day for 24 March, 7 or 14 April

This depends on what other events are on and members thoughts.

So give me your thoughts and we will try and get something firmed up and we can really publicise and push it given the time we will have.
14 April is GRRC members meeting Tom.

That's looking like the perfect date. With 6 months notice, this should be the biggest and best with nice weather. :lol:

In some ways an autumn date is ideal to help with getting bits for winter projects…
