I'm unfashionably early due to meeting a friend earlier in the day. For those coming you don't have to put your registration number in at the bar as they are having a refurb. But they are open.

Anyone up for a meet at C&M The Bowl for a bit of a change, always some cool cars parked up and a really nice vibe. Let me know if you are and I’ll be happy to arrange it? ImageImage

If it's timed for one of my work days in Milton Keynes then count me in. Apart from the normal MK meet date in only up on Mon/Tue throughout June, but haven't planned July onwards yet so can be flexible then

Can we keep it to the Friday? Do we need to (or are we able to) book for C&M?

Alternative might be to try the Caldecotte again? Don't know if it's changed at all.

Im looking into it. I feel that C&M is more about cars, food is available and is very good, more details are available on the link I put up, I’ve been a few times now. I’ll come back to you all!

Just to clarify, not looking to take over the current meet, this is just as a sometimes add on for a change of scenery etc…

Depending on the date, I could make it on weekdays. Weekends would mean bringing the family and although our boy would like seeing cool cars I’m not sure it would last very long

There is a Daikoku Jap car meet night on Wednesday 1st July?

Note: Venue closes at 9.pm and food orders are an hour before closing, theres also a £6 booking fee to guarantee a parking spot, this is fully redeemable on any orders

I propose we meet at 6:30 - 7pm

Anyone up for it?
