Excellent mate.

Do you kmow of somewhere we could meet. I'll be coming down the M69.

**STattam** · 20-04-2005 05:55

yeah, when you come to the end of the M69 (when it goes under the M6 island and into two lanes) about 3/4 mile up on the left hand side there is a layby (usually has a quality bacon butty wagon in it), we could meet there mate if you want, my mate will be in his car too hopefully, so thats three. We need more eh.

Cheers mate

Sounds good to me

I'll figure out what time is best to meet.. How long should it take from there to the show?

**STattam** · 20-04-2005 09:43

about 20 minutes mate from there depending on traffic around Stratford, should be a quality traffic jam if there is one though

**Orange Peel** · 20-04-2005 10:03

What time would you like to get there?

I was thinking 8:30ish?

**STattam** · 20-04-2005 10:29

not sure, does it open at 9? I haven't got tickets yet or do we buy them on the day? 8:30 is fine by me mate.

**Orange Peel** · 20-04-2005 10:31

Opens at 6:30!! Dont want to get there that early though!

You can send off for tickets £8 or on the day £10

**STattam** · 20-04-2005 15:19

nice one.

I will be in a Blue Cav Turbo, mate will be in a White 3.0 24v CD Senator.

Take it you will be in your Astra Mk4 SXI ?

Cheers

**Orange Peel** · 20-04-2005 15:22

Yeah, I'll be in the SXI, its the standard (one of a million on the road) metallic blue.

Damn you for having a Cav turbo lol

**STattam** · 20-04-2005 15:27

Damn you for having a car thats new and doesn't break expensive bits on a weekly basis lmao

I have to admit its nice to have a car thats not a hassle, mainly as its a company car so I dont really care..

Still can't wait to get my CDi back on the road though..

**STattam** · 20-04-2005 15:36

Astra or Cav CDI? I used to have a Cav CDI, best car I have ever owned it was brill.

Astra Mk2 mate. Had a Cav CDX which was nice but the ecocrap blew up and cost me a small fotune to fix.. Pre Mig too so I was totally in the dark!

**STattam** · 21-04-2005 06:16

my mate who has the Senator now had a blue Astra CDI, it was a top car. Real wolf in sheeps clothing, went really well. PLush inside too.

See you Monday mate, keep fingers crossed for weather eh.

**Orange Peel** · 21-04-2005 07:58
