We can get that on the new thread as soon as i post it

Perhaps can we extract a little bit of it onto a flyer ( As Mutts nutts idea ) On a single sheet of paper A4 Perhaps , This in turn then can be handed out with the newsletters

Love the Radios mate link ?

Tiny...
Hand out just needs this last bit from Tescos.

Leave Tescos & TURN LEFT @ FIRST EXIT LONDON BOUND A127 .




Take next slip then first exit @ roundabout , get in right hand lane & take third exit @ roundabout back onto A127 Southend bound .




DO'S & DON'TS FOR NEWBIES


1. Please no doughnuts or flamefests in Tescos car park .

2. Please no lane weaving & indicate if you must change lane mid convoy .

3. Be ready for the "Underpass" slow down & launch.

Ditto @ traffic lights .

4. Radios set to Channel 1 .

5. Fixed Cameras ~ Traffic Units ~ Mobile Cameras

You have been warned .


6. Above all HAVE FUN .

I guess someone must have decided to take a detour and us @ the back, Her-@-the back included, followed. Hence spliting the convoy.

Great outline Mark.
Not me I was not even there

Sorry for the late reply guys, just got to a computer !!!!

Just wanted to thank everyone at the meet for making us feel so welcome esp Bubbs & Tiny, We did clamp on a little bit as it was our first meet !

Really enjoyed it though it were a little cold but it was fantastic.

Nice to see a few girlie scoobies there and nice to see so many fantastic cars all together at the same time.

Bring on the next meet !!

I'm afraid that I went the wrong way with others!! I was near the back

I was thinking that I had read on here about the double backing - but you just kind of follow everyone and dont want to be the one that makes a decision!!

Anyway I think us Newbies will know for next time?

Had a good night a good turnout- I havent been to S'end for ages and had forgotten how stylish some Orions can be made to look

Looking forward to the next one...

glad to hear you had a good evening, it was me that said "how hard is it to follow the car in front". It sounds like the group got split up about half way down the line....so there would have been enough cars already gone left...unfortunately sounds like someone didnt spot that happen though!!!!



Tiny, can you keep a copy of the newsletter for me please mate.

Cheers
