Kaffenbak III - 03/05/14 - 9:30 am

Post by Phil_B » Mon Apr 07, 2014 10:57 am

WOW, time flies. We are already closing in rapidly on the next Breakfast Meet so here are the details.

We are planning to run up to Donington Park after the meet as it is the first day of the Donington Historic Festival weekend.

What: KAFFENBAK III - The idea is a simple one. We all make our own way to the venue for a nice breakfast and a chat. Basically a Saturday breakfast natter, where you drive to the Cafe and back (see what we did there?).

When: Saturday 3rd May, meeting at 9:30.

Where: The Cattows Farm Shop, Cattows Farm, Swepstone Road, Heather, Leicestershire, LE67 2RF

Please reply to this thread so I can get numbers to the venue.

Who:
Phil_B (Me)
Jen & Paul
MG Matt (hopefully)
Ken & Beverley
Steve (hopefully)
Stephen
Gary
Pete & Caroline
Keith (hopefully)

I may be up for this too. I need to be in Griffydam for 12:00 noon which is only a couple of miles away. It depends if I need to give someone a lift there.

Would need to make my coffee last quite a long time though if I did join you..................

On another note, can you confirm the date for the next monthly pub meet? Thread date says Tues 15th but your signature states Mon 14th.

Cheers

You would be most welcome, but if it's like the last one you'll struggle with just coffee when you see the food :thumbsu:
I guess we would be there a couple of hours, so you probably wouldn't have to stretch it out too far.

What..eh... no, you must be mistaken ;-)

It's most certainly the Tuesday 15th. :oops:

Hi Phil,

Gary and myself will be coming, in Gary's car (that is as long as its not raining in which case it will be my car) and carrying on to Donnington afterwards. Keith is also hoping to meet us at the Kaffenbak but I don't think he is going to Donnington.

All the best,

Stephen

Great, thanks for confirming. Looking forward to this.

I've advised the venue that there will be 14 so room for a couple of last minute additions.

I'd better wash the car tonight then if Gary is bringing his ;)

Hi there

Just tried driving for the first time since my operation on Monday. Really wasn't very comfy and that was in my high seating position family car.

Therefore, I'm afraid it's going to be a no for me tomorrow with or without MG (don't stand a chance of getting in MG!) as it's a bit too far to go whilst remaining comfortable but will rest and try again for Tuesday night.

Have a great time tomorrow and over the weekend.

Ok Matt, thanks for letting me know. Best to rest up than make this worse. Hope to see you for Tuesday, but again if you can't male it don't worry.
