OK by me

Might have to find time to align headlights (NOTE the plural!) before I set off!

No problems with me - 6:00 - 6:30 would be cool :)

Can't wait to see the T2 Ian :)

James - will it be the '67 or the '73? Decisions, decisions :lol:

I'll be in the 2.4S :)

The 67 needs a new fuel pump

Good to see you guys again and equally good to see different motors.
Phil, that 911 Sporto is just amazing. Nice one! 8)
Ian, the T2 looks the poodles privates.
Sorry James - was looking forward to seeing the '67. Next time, eh?
And the conversations - all I can say is that Phil's knowledge of the marque is just encyclopedic (sp?). I probably know less than Phil's forgotton? :(

Many thanks Mick - it's my pride and joy that one - I had the most fantastic drive home :lol:

I *totally* agree with Mick - Ian, you can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, sell it :)

You're too kind - I could officially bore for England sometimes - sorry chaps :oops:

It's just a rare chance to meet with a bunch of guys who want to just discuss Porsche :)

James - you're a star for organising it - and you rightfully deserve the result of last night's impromptu vote!

Mick & Ian - you're stars for driving so far to make it.

Mick - happy birthday again - it's officially your 'birthday week' :)

So when's the next one chaps? :) Must have to be down the A1 somewhere to make it a little easier for Mick and Ian?

The FOC meets at a really nice pub called 'The Chequers Inn' at Ledsham:

Really easy to get to off the A1.

Yes guys - I echo all the thoughts above - for anyone travelling north on the A1, the destination James chose was very good indeed.

It appears that the further north you get, the better the options for food and accommodation 8).

Here's a couple of piccies from last night:

Apologies for bringing the wrong period car, but I was home in 45 minutes :P.

Superb night out :) Phil, hope your father in law wasn't too bored with all the Porsche talk ;)

Bless him - I think he's got some way to go to repay all the 'golf' discussions I've had to sit in on :wink:

:lol:

That pub looks like a good place for the next meet. Lets just hope the weather is good :)

BTW Ian, love the T2, it's quite a quick car ;) .

Mick, the 2.7 does sound fruity 8)

Like Ian said - who cares if the weather's bad - we could always just meet up for a beer and a natter (ok, I'm looking for another chance to be a bore! :oops: )
