Re: Karting (or whatever) up North

last 2 weekends in March and any other weekend after that for about a year don't suit me. SWMBO is due to drop about 6th April and sods law says the baby will come early.

Re: Karting (or whatever) up North

Right folks lets get this thing sorted. Looks like speedway is the favourite for Karting. Why don't we aim for 4th or 11th of March (subject to booking). Any comments?

If we can get this nailed down this weekend i'll check availablity and chase up the members N & S who haven't appeared in this thread so far.

Sorry for the delay folks. I know I kinda agreed to organise this so apologies. I can blame work, nappies, relatives and builders but ultimately I needed to get the finger out. Sorry.

Johnny those dates don't really suit me, ahem post 36 if its okay with others is there any chance we could go with the other ones I mentioned . I'm working the 11th and SWMBO brothers anniversary is the weekend of the 4th (jaysus I can't believe its a year ago )

Btw don't forget Bpm will be away to the Nurburgring the weekend of the 17th March.

Re: Karting (or whatever) up North

Some f the key players can't fit in there. The last 2 weekends in March (18 or 25th)may not suit me with the baby coming but I can get it set up for you guys anyway if one of these days suits.

Opinions?

Hey Johnny we'll organise some other date then, no point in having an outing if one of the Top Skoda NI boys ain't available . What about the other options ? Do any of them suit ya ?

Johnny,
I just found out the 4th could be a runner for me, I thought the anniversary was the Sat but they are going to have the mass on the Sunday. So if it suits everyone go for it

Re: Karting (or whatever) up North

Right i'll check on availability for 4th March. If no good we'll hold off until April probably. When does the new motor arrive Gaff?

Oops, I got dates mixed up. Then it must be then your going to Nurburgring. (Btw BPM it still doesn't suit me to the Nurburgring then either as I'm on the same shift pattern)


So the chioces for Karting are 4th or 18th of March. Another option could be the 19th

Please don't have it too early on the 18th as I'm working the night before
