Cornwall Meet take... about 4? :)

Pub meets, drives and social events. For good food and good company while the car stays in the car park, or for a pleasurable drive through the countryside.

Cornwall Meet take... about 4? :)

Post by qwakers » Mon Aug 24, 2020 9:21 pm

Having been thinking about this for a while, and with lockdown now ended and restaurants etc open again, i thought id re-float this as a idea, but at an even more less central location!


The idea is to have the meet at Imacken’s place, having spoken to him he seems keen, but no formal arrangements have been made, mostly because of wanting to sound out the membership for such a southern (even for Cornwall!) location.

It is here:

Who’s in, in principal? 8)

All the best with getting this meet off the ground James. A bit far for me!

Sounds like a great idea. :thumright:

I need to visit my cousin sometime this year so I'd go along with a view to staying a few days.

I now have an RX8 so can attend, if your want to bump numbers up I’ll bring both the 7 and 8.

But have just seen news that large meet ups are restricted again! Bugger
