Just checked the weather forecast and it looks like rain most of the day, so we will not be attending, its no fun having to sit in the car all day.
See you on Thursday.

In view of the rain and the forecast for rain throughout the day we're sadly going to give it a miss. See those of you coming to the meet and meal on Thursday on Thursday.

Going to spend the day fitting a new soft top on Neil's car so at least something positive will be done. Been promising to do it for 2 years :D

We will be having our picnic for lunch in doors with chips. No roast today but at least I can have a beer.

Looks like we are going to have a dry day indoors today, we dont quite fancy sitting out in the cold and wet.

We will look forward to meeting you all next time, with a bit of luck we will have bought a F or a TF by then that we want to keep.

Shame, but we'll be staying at home today too. The cooler weather makes the garage more comfortable so I'll be back to welding the Minor.

Shame about the weather, but a very productive day in the garage with Nigel & Jo May, Joo & myself removing the old soft roof and fitting a new one on the TF. :thumbsu:
