Hi Guys n Gals,

For those of you that can make it, a few of us are heading down to Sale for a bit of a catch-up (or first meeting)....  It is a fair way to go, but we'll be staying down there Saturday night to make it more relaxing.  In addition to the excellent company, there's some great touring roads down that way which will make the trip more than worthwhile!

So here's the details:

When:  Saturday, 10th November 2012
Time:  1pm
Where:  Jack Ryans Irish Pub, Sale, https://plus.google.com/100158517044017078959/about?gl=au&hl=en#100158517044017078959/about?gl=au&hl=en
Partners invited
W116 optional but encouraged!

If you can let me know how many are interested I can book a table or two if necessary.  Hope to see you there!   :D

Sadly due to illness, poor weather and a lack of driveable W116s we've decided to postpone the lunch and subsequent cruise.  We'll advise ASAP with a new date.  It'd be nice to make it 9th December to coincide with the WA event, but I doubt the cars will be ready in time.

Maybe we should have an International W116 Day in September each year to commemorate the release of the model back in 1972???

Sorry guys,
The combination of another cracked screen and steering im not happy with and some weird bug my kids got me from the schools Disease of the Month club I was out as of yesterday.

To add insult to illness I think the weather man got it wrong and the weather at home (which is normally worse than anywhere else) was just superb!  Particularly towards the end of the day which is the best time for cruising!  But the cars would still be missing so I'm headed out to the shed today for some long overdue attention and bloke-time....  Get well soon Tony!   :)
