[dicky b t5]

[T5 Ben]

Hi guys,i'm not sure i can make it on the day,also haven't got a "beast" yet but i can pop in to the Talbot if you want to save someone a trip as my new job is only 5 mins away.

Let me know if i can help.

Ben.

[arbee]

ok, ok back from my hols! glad to see this thread is going strong and the numbers are growing - Andrew keep us updated on other forum attendence and I will edit the first post - VOC and Volvo-tech I take it, any others?

Schedule for the day looks good Andrew, just to keep the barman happy tho could we all ensure we pop into the pub for a beer/softie/crisps before we scarper for the run :)

I will check with The Talbot with a weeks notice, last time they were more than happy to accomodate us so i dont forsee any problems :) If desired i can book us a table for grub as there may be a fair number what with some other-halfs! I will ask you all to confirm numbers during the week before so I can give them a few days notice :)

Roll on the 7th, should be a good 'un

[Andrew]

We can take drinks outside I assume - think they had some tables so we can drink ourselfs stupid (soft drinks only gents) while we chat.

hope we have a better turn out this time as avon park was well enuff said but nice to meet you all we will be bringing the van down so road races will be out for me for those vpc members if you need bits and have not got discount codes please get them asap and make sure you know them as i will not do discount to non vpc members PERIOD

[Mrsmopp]

as i will not do discount to non vpc members PERIOD

Glad to hear it :)

[T5ER]

thanks MM but thats the way me and olly work all of you are good to us(spesh when it comes to giving me a big kick in the direction of buying a olive T5 along with Justin kicking my other arse cheek) but our dedication for supllyong parts is to this club only and will never change for anyone!!.Just a quick one moppy were are yours and waxworks disc codes LOL.Thanks to the club for all the trade you give us and hope we good to you,remember if your main stealer wont help me and olly will,but dont forget we will sometimes need your vin numbers.One problem we do have and i will underline this is that those running standard T5`S and not R`s we struggle to quote for suspension parts as they are done on codes from the chassis plates and if you aint got a R you wont have the codes that R models do

Sorry T5ER have we missed something here not sure where your coming from mate?

[T5ER]

no mate there was a good looking list for avon park and 5 turned up do to reasons but hey hopefully this one will be better

[Engineer]

no mate there was a good looking list for avon park and 5 turned up do to reasons but hey hopefully this one will be betterThanks Wayne, see where you’re coming from now, turn outs can be disappointing sometimes for whatever reason, people do lead very busy lives and despite the best intentions can’t always deliver mate. No VPCUK ID no discount, fair enough. M11 thingy not to be taken seriously though, just a bit of fun, although white vans do tend to do rather well lol.

[T5ER]

not our white van mate to many logo`s on it plus only 1.9 td with 6 speed box might hopefully have lunatic done so might leave the van and come down in him instead

We had a very good turn out previously. I hope to see everyone on the list. I know it's hard to get away but we don't have many meets in the East so it's got to be worth popping along. We're very friendly, you get to take the p*ss out of "dad" aka "death" aka Engineer, there's food n booze/soft drinks for those that want it and it's sure to be a lovelly day.... and hell I'll be there even if it's 'issing down.... as someone once said. "Dedications what you need!"

[Andrew]

Got all the signs of a great meet as long as people keep "dedication is what you need" in mind and turn up.

We always get 1-5 members from other clubs (Volvo-Tech/VOC) turn up so it should be a great gathering with 20+ cars.
