Mini meet Leicester area Saturday March 3rd?

Anyone?

I'll be in a vauxhall corsa, but no reason why I should be unwelcome.

I'll be up in the Midlands on this weekend, so would be nice to meet up with some Briskodians.

I propose a swift half of ale at the Hope & Anchor at Syston, East of Leicester, say 8pm onwards? Maybe a meal too? Then maybe a little drive out - just bear in mind I'll be in an "economy" motor.

Add your name


1) Jason


EDIT Date changed due to Allards postponing me.

Hmm not sure if I can make it that far & that early, depends a bit on SWMBO. I need to trial the car though. Will let you know a bit closer to the time, perhaps drop me a PM with your mobile?

But we went to the same pub last time

Shame the mongrel will not be present, but she's heading for better things.

Shaun - wouldn't mind a spin out in the beezer.

Hmmm, food for thought, but to be honest - I need to spend time with the relations on this stint, and I will only be in a poxy vauxhall corsa.

Don't be like that. I expect with the 100kg weight saving, your car will be as quick as mine is currently. Will be decent for a pd100 I'm sure. I just want to compare it to how my old pd100 was with its 154bhp remap.

It's only just East of Leicester - Kind of one of the outer most suburbs. Just off the A47 IIRC.

Re: Mini meet Leicester area Saturday Feb 24th?

Certainly is.

I will say 7.30 though, just so I can at least grab some food. They do a really huge steak for about a tenner, with all the trimmings, and it's usually a decent cut of meat too.

This is where the pub is.

Re: Mini meet Leicester area Saturday Feb 24th?

Sorry guys. Allard have rung me to postpone the job by 7 days, so I'm afraid this meet is off. Should still be OK for the following Saturday though, which I believe is the 3rd March. I'll PM everyone to clarify this.

Fine. Does that mean you'll be bringing the Allarded mongrel on the 3rd?

Nope - will be the corsa again sadly.... It just means the whole thing is postponed by 7 days.

This is definitely on now! 7.30 @ The Hope and Anchor and there will be food. I reckon I will go with their mixed grill again! yum!

Not sure what car I will be in, but I will be there for 7.30.

Forgot about that - Might leave my car nearly empty for a blast with some Millers for the home run
