Just a quick reminder about the meeting with speaker/presentation this Sunday 10th Feb

Really interesting tour of Goodridge today - a much larger establishment than I was expecting. Thanks to James and Alex, our hosts. Turns out McLaren are one of their largest customers but they make "fluid transfer systems" for many major manufacturers.
The tour at the Antiques warehouse had somewhat fewer attendees but well received nonetheless.

Thanks again for an interesting visit, pub food was good too.

Very interesting talk by Ian Thomas today. Life as an underwater photographer in the Arctic/Antarctic is certainly not glamorous!

A reminder about the "4Cs" event, Cars, Coffee, Cake and Chat, on the 21st March in Callington.

And then the visit to Haynes on the 23rd.

IF it happens, which I very much doubt, then anywhere near Exeter will be a no-no. I like the bit in the Devon Live piece which says something like "don't worry about the legalities, someone is taking care of it" Ha, Ha! Thought springs to mind. So they grid lock Exeter and emergency vehicles can't get through. Someone dies because the ambulance can't get there. Are they taking care of the legalities of that, I wonder.....Numpties.

Alan,

Is Haynes still an 11:00 start?

Ralph

 

[tscaptain]

1000 from Exeter, 1100 at Haynes. (ish....[])

 

[stevewilkinson]
