It will happen, but not tonight, apologies for any inconvenience.
I will be at the meeting point and will probably go have a countery somewhere nearby!

Is it April the 1st today???
Nope. Damn. Bugger.
But I guess this is the sensible call to make.
If has rained there today or last night then some of those roads will still be wet/damp tonight.
But *goddamit* the wet is the great power equaliser. Probably the only time when a NA is preferable to a FI car. Maybe

Good call, Al. I was humming and hahhing about whether to go. It's easy to get a slippery spot up there, especially on leaves. And going through there gingerly isn't much fun (for most).

Any idea of an alternate date?

Cheers,
Alf

Hopefully I will be able to join you on at the new date/time

Good call Al. MUCH more fun in the dry . . . and safer too, I guess.
Hope the new date works for us.
Travel safe . . . :mrgreen:

Okay, i am fairly flexable, what dates better suit people?
I was wondering about Sunday night next week given its a long weekend? Or the following Saturday night?
FEEDBACK PLEASE and a decision will be made once i consult Roady!

Hi Al,

It was a shame about the weather, but I agree the right call was made. Sunday night next week sounds good.

good call to postpone it Al.

Being a long weekend a lot of people might be away for the weekend?? i know i will be .
altho i guess most people had their holidays over xmas so they'll be back in town...

I'm away, too, though not with Fatty. I'd prefer the following week, but, hey, it's your call.

Cheers,
Alf
