OK, shall we do this democratically? We'll say that the location is the Heritage Motor Museum in Gaydon...

I'll knock up a poll for us to indicate our preferred / available dates.

Done. I suppose if I'd read it properly I would have spotted the "select up to 9" bit above it.

I take it family will be welcome? The wife won't be interested, but my little boy would love it.

come on Trem its a one off, Im looking at a 24-30 hour drive each way for this and to be honest its never gonna happen again is it, we are an apathetic lot at the best of times when it comes to meets, I know we all have families and the like along with work commitments but wouldnt it be fantastic just for once for us all to get together? we have such good banter and help each other out so much on here i for one would really like to meet up with you guys.

Oh go on, go on , go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on...............................ad infinitum etc etc etc
