So, it's that time of year again, already lol! Long-termers will recognise the title, we've had a fantastic turn out for this in years gone by, hopefully this will be another. Basic recipe is as follows:
- Meet in pub car park (cat and fiddle, BH23 7DS) and distribute itinerary, maps and phone numbers.
- Drive through new forest on some of the best roads around to good photo shoot spot.
- Park up in formation and take photos - those not taking pictures typically mince about poking engine bays, trolling forum staff and generally ruining it for those trying to take photos.
- Drive through some more of the new forest to a barbecue site.
- Barbecue time! Eat, make merry and chat bollocks until it's time to go home.
Seems the 11th May wins it, have closed the poll now so it's all set in stone. I understand there's a few from the 205 club joining us, so should be a good turn out this year. I'll update this post if there's any more info required, do shout if there's some details i've missed.

Hahah promising start! Last year it was myself, the organiser and a member of staff, so if half the interested parties turn up we've already bettered that!

Potentially up for this if it is the 18th.

BH23 7DS is the postcode of the pub we usually meet at, might have to move it down the road if it looks like we've got a lot turning up though.

Providing Niall's engine doesn't spin a few more bearings and he needs a lift, you can jump in with me if you want mate?
