    Oddly enough I'm going to be staying in a hotel not far from there on the Saturday. Though it's our anniversary so don't think I'll be allowed to come along, will see what I can do

    Pencil me in for this one, I'm off that day and the distance isn't too bad (around 2 hours each way). Hopefully I'll get to put a few more faces to names and have a natter. I'll confirm either way nearer the time but it's looking hopeful.

    Do you head down to Brecon very often? I can't ever recall seeing your car but then perhaps I wasn't looking very hard.

    Living where I do, I can go to a southern softies meet or a North West, Midlands or Mid-Wales and Shropshire meet. I'm in an odd area of the country, not really very close to any particular group so I tend to tag on to whatever I can and whenever I can.

    don't we all tag along where we can, did a north-west and the softies this year, nice to get about and see different people face to face and see there cars in reality, may do the Haynes (but not a haynes)meet this year but the calendar is pretty full all ready, we'll see what the budget will allow
