Norfolk get-together 2008.

Is there going to be a Norfolk thing again this year?
It seems to have a life of it's own so I guess the answer is yes. :smt003
Since we are the only people to be trusted with the site these days we have all dates available and that has to be the first question.

My choice would be early September for almost guaranteed good weather and less holiday traffic but I realise there are different criteria for others.
TBH the weather is not really a problem with the facilities there and we have had reasonable rideouts at all times of the year.

Gio mentioned combining it with a track day again and I see MSV have a day and evening sessions at Snetti on Thur 28th Aug. MSV

Lets kick some ideas around here then get something organised in R-O&E. :smt001

For those that haven't been before we have a camping barn available in the middle of nowhere about 6 miles from Gt Yarmouth where we manage to have food and booze on tap as are good roads, good company and no neighbours. :smt002 Mebbe worth mentioning for those that don't do camping (and most people seem to finish up crashing out in the barn even if they bring tents) is that there is a Travel Lodge about 3 miles away.

I'll be there subject to not being on Salisbury Plain... once or twice... and not being in Kenya. :smt011

I shall aim off on arranging my diary around other people's proposed dates. Mine flex more than a bendy Prostitute in Soho.

I would love to come but have no weekends left in Sept (or August) without juggling leave, so when I date is set I'll see what I can do!

28th evening is ok for me, as I don't fancy leaving the Wednesday as I'll get into trouble with the other half.

So Thurs to Sunday for me is okay :smt003

I'll be on a bike so drinks will have to be a local thing lol.

Tuck it under your arm and we'll see how fast it goes then :smt002

I wonder how well an old shape Pan will go round Snett :smt003 (Not that I have on yet, but some geezers got an 02 for sale for 4800 with 25 on the clock and is waiting for my call by Wednesday :smt003 )
