Title: Lampeter Shed Meet 15th Jan.
Post by: Steffan on January 08, 2011, 04:15:15 PM: This will be, all things being equal, the last shed meet here, but a warm invitation is open to anyone who might like to pop along for some saturated animal fats, coffee, tea and the usual accompaniments. As always some dossing space is available for those who want to come the night before. No volvos, or other fourwheelers, landys excepted.

Steffan

Obviously I need to know numbers so form an orderly queue here.

Post by: guest7 on January 08, 2011, 07:18:02 PM: Woohoo! shed meet. All being well I'll be there. Do you want me to bring a catering pack of bacon? (one of the advantages of my dad owning a cafe).

Put that weekend aside for Servicing,Tyre-ing,MOT-ing the outfit ready for the following weekend Ferry Catching.

And waiting news to see how my brother up in Cumbria is doing after his heart attack.
From what my niece was saying he had to be jump started back to life.
Then airlifted from Whitehaven(Cumbria) to Middlesbrough(North Yorkshire).
A reasonable distance apart methinks !

All the best guys !

All the best on the other side

I'll make the long haul up from Maesycrugiau and pop in if that's OK

On the bright side at least your plumbing will be safe. :-[

Post by: Steffan on January 13, 2011, 05:10:59 PM: OK boys and girls, if that is it I will budget accordingly. GC no need on the bacon, my contribution to club morale.

Look forward to see you all, do let me know tomorrow if things change and you are a definate no.

Also the roads out here have devoured themselves and are not fixed. There are some really deadly potholes and gravel and broken surface everywhere, so take care.

All the best

Steff

PS If there are any others who haven't decided let me know by close of play tomorrow at the latest.

Thank you so much for your hospitality Steffan.
