RATS' Open day July 27'

ok - based on the last 3 posts...maybe it makes sense for me to drive up in the atmo - and leave it at RATS for some light fettling..and drive back in slumdog f450.

I could also courier some parts I suppose
I could get to the ACE on Monday and I could collect parts from Mr Dell and the take them on Sunday ?
Assuming RAOC and Stephen are going to the ACE ?

Andy/Vince - are the parts bulky i.e. can they fit (easily) in a GTA ?

I have asked Mr Dell for the two window gutterings that go around the edge of the door at the top, for my A610, so I guess they could fit in the rear of your car ok... Its just getting them from Mr Dell.....

Any Southerners travelling up to this...? Darren, or Martin perhaps ..

Not sure yet Dave. I'd like to, time permitting, plus the car isn't back from the MOT yet....!

Landlord has had the lads on garden duty this week so the RATS' picanic area is all nice and trim .

Vince !! I need the tent lad please if you are planning on popping up early doors
Any more planning on making the trip ? BigM needs to know as he's on butty duty

ok np.. will be up early

As you are reasonably near to me, I would like to attend please. I am a new member, so keen to meet you all. What time are you expecting people to arrive? Shall I bring a few burgers & cans?

I'll be there. Let me know if you want anything brought up.

I have Mr Holt's headlamp glasses from Mr Dell....and some bits from Mr Sassin too.
Mr Dell looked for Mr Santini's A610 'gutters'..but could only find LH ones...if the others turn up maybe Jon could bring em...

Will set off early to avoid summer heat (?) ..should be there 10ish....I'll be driving back in the ice cold AC of the new gta (!?)...must ask Lee if it's working..

A/C ...Dunno but it's all plumbed in so I will get it pressure tested and see what's what .Not promising owt ......

Ummed and arred about BBQ as it will need looking after quite a bit but I'm sure we will have many chefs willing to take over for a burger or two ?? Not so much bring yer own as burn ......
Still not got much of an idea of numbers but with three boys now off school for 6 weeks I'm sure I'll get rid of any surplus grub .Just shifted a big fridge round and will drag the barrel BBQ round in a bit ....it aint pretty but it does the job

I have a couple of GTA turbos for sale atm so a good time to pop over for a nose and why not bring some folding and perhaps grab a bargain on the day

Why don't we to save all the cooking apparatus and shinanigans and just get some Pizza's in?

Shall we say RATS open day open 10am till 4pm lets see who rocks up and order said pizza's at 12pm ready to eat at 1pm? We all chip in a few quid for said pizza's and everyone's a winner.

Roland - Is there a decent pizza shop open on the day of the Sabbath near you?

No charge for tentspace but I will nedd to wet my beak a little .capisce ?

I'm sure you can cope without me for the first 2 hours. Got shizzle on and as you know I'm underthethumb.com. If I can get there earlier I will.

Planning on coming in convoy with Turbodog.

Anyone else coming?

Is it worth scoping Piston heads for fresh blood?
