Unsure if ill be able to attend, its my Dads birthday that day, will have to let you know closer to the time

Just say your taking him for a meal. In Taunton

I'm gonna have to see how my shifts are nearer the time, hoping to be there though!

People still up for this? should be a good day out.

Count me in meant to put name down a while back

Should still be okay for me too, will double check my shifts with work

I could make this, depends how packing has gone for the move though.

Best get packing then n make sure you can

Have a good one guys.

Are we going for a drive/pics afterwards? I'd imagine some of you locals must know some good roads? I'm not bothered myself but if we are going for a drive ill probably bring my car rather than leave it in gloucester.

Yeh would be good to go for a drive but not sure what everyone is planning. Yeh some good back roads which are nice to drive along or dependant on how far people want to go we could go to lyton & lynmouth which there is some nice photo spots on the way there & a nice road to drive.

As i'd feared all week, i can't make this now as i have to work

Sorry guys.

And cash people are taking for PCAD can be given to Chris.

Evening.....

After Stu saying he can't make it, who is definately going to be there?

Or do we look to move it to another weekend when Stu can make it.

I only ask this as aside Stu and Adam I don't think I know the rest of ya.

I'll be down that neck of the woods this weekend, I'm staying at the folk's caravan near minehead so might see some of you hooning over the moors!

Right, having given it plenty of thought and consideration we will also not be there on Sunday.

My grandparents who I haven't seen in ages are coming over so I should really stay home

Shame will be a nice day out.

I know :'( devastating

Looking foward to tomoz think 1 is a bit late to meet mind lol, whats the plan tomoz then ryan??

Giving me car a wash in the morning then ready to go. best ask someone else what the plan is when we meet lol.

whats the plan wen we meet guys? weathers lookin good so itd gona be rude not to go for a hoon

Just heard Chris isn't coming now. Anyone heard from Jamesy, otherwise it's just us locals and probably not worth going all the way into Taunton for.

I dont think anyone from Glos is going.

I cant go but i heard from others they arent going

OK, confirmed now, Adam and Jamesy aren't coming down, as it's just the locals I think we're going to still go out for a drive, but we won't be meeting up in Taunton now.

Yeh sorry guys I can't justify the fuel costs from Birmingham to Taunton for such a small meet.

lol birmingham to taunton just for a meet is a long long way lol dont blame u mate

Was a crackling day out tho, weather was nice roads fairly flowing and ryan even span the six lmao!!
