I quite fancy going on one. Not sure about the drive down tho. Does he ever do them anywhere closer?

nope - he doesn't need to. His North Weald days are booked out months in advance, so why would he bother going looking for the work?

Robin, Rob & I did one in April. The drive down is a bit tedious but if you're with mates, it has a mini adventure feel and is a great laugh. Think twice about driving home the same night though

Was a great laugh!
Trying to keep up with Robin en route -through the back roads to Newcastle - and Robin, constantly winding me up about my dissappearing coolant and impending explosion of my engine!
Robin- I've done 5,000 miles since then - no explosion or HGF!

Well worth the drive!

He does occasionally do them at Crail but last time was in 2005.

Have you checked your radiator? Common S2 fault is a knackered rad leading to coolant loss. Both mine and tankfeet's went around the same time.

Yep - got JPS to have a good look at the last service! I'm not too worried - partly Robin on the wind-up!
The coolant level has been at just below min since I got the car no matter how often you top it up!

AA parts and labour cover has been taken!

Ken, I'm happy to go with the flow- whatever dates suit everyone else....

Although if Neil is coming we better get some sheets to hide the S2's. You know how sensitive he gets

Hmmm...Greg's point about not heading straight back is also a good one.
Quite like the idea of debriefing over some refreshments...
