Could please tell me where and what time we meet up in Torksey. Thanks pete

@t-tony
Hi Pete, sorry mate I saw this first thing but haven't had a chance to reply as yet. If you come here on the A1133 through Collingham (I assume the road is open again?) you will eventually come to the A57 junction at Newton-on-Trent, come across on the A1133, through Laughterton and you arrive at Torksey Lock. Pub is opposite the Caravan Sales. See you Sunday mate.

Tony.

I noticed yesterday they have added some 'basic' accommodation at the Swan :D Unless of course they were just shipping in extra supplies?
At least Dave will feel at home :p

Hope its gone before next weekend as we might need the space :cool:

Nooooooo, only half the grub :thumbsup: I staggered in with the wish list last Wednesday night mate.:) Had a blast round the route last Sunday with the Mints and Mike and Sandy for the last time. Shirl is in charge of laminating the route and picture sheets, hopefully tomorrow then it'll be full steam ahead with the sweet treats !:thumbsup::)

Tony.

It will very soon be the 10th. so here's what's happening. Grumps is leading the troops over from Ollerton, leaving there at 9.45 and hope fully landing here at Torkzee Lock at 10.15 or soon after. I would like the first group away from the Swan by 10.50 at latest and each group 10 minute intervals. Last group away at 11.30, as the run is approx. 1hr 30mins. + 10 minute (Max.) stop at Blyton for photos. Groups as follows unless any changes before Sunday.

1. Tony, yockyz320, Tony Wilson, Jimmy Weston, PhilB, Toby.

2. Mike, KatKwak, Macca, pete59 , JME, Paul Rice,

3. Steve, Sean d, Rha, Billz, MauriceM , Domenico T Dilorio

4. Dave, brilie, Alan Slade, Ed the Z, Fred the Z, Antm72,

5. Grumps, Roy (A3), Andy Beard, Paul Gunter, Jjim ,


Paul at the pub has said he will allow people to use the pub toilets before we go out for the cruise !

You may notice some extra signage along the cruise route towards the end for the "Lost Boys" to help as the pub does stop serving food at 4.00 :thumbsup:=))

Please order your food in the pub as you return and then it will spread the work load for the staff. Unfortunately we can't all sit down together but please be sure we will all get fed:thumbsup:

After lunch we will go over the road to the field next to ours for pictures and chat, plus of course Shirl's sweet treats.

Tony.

Edit soon.

Ha,ha. Blame Grumps for that one Paul, taking in waifs and strays =)). Mind you, at least it's a rag top, not like that Rover 75 last year ;) or the Suzuki the year before.:(

@sad_old_man, cut it out, go and spam another forum or something, why comment if you are not going?
It would be hard to attend when I don't know what the arrangements are or what the route is now wouldn't it. If you could attempt to help instead of continually slapping me down publicly then it might be helpful? Try it you might like it you never know. That's the second and last time! Bye and have a happy life.

Tonight while Mint and I were fitting his other front spring out in the garage Shirl and Mrs. Mint had a good idea regarding meeting up on Sunday morning at the Swan. What we would like to do is group the cars as they arrive, in their cruise groups. This will hopefully make it simpler to get the groups away on time. So please see the groups list and note which one you're in and park behind that number outside the pub!

1. Tony, yockyz320, Tony Wilson, Jimmy Weston, PhilB, Toby.

2. Mike, KatKwak, Macca, pete59 , JME, Paul Rice,

3. Steve, Sean d, Rha, Billz, MauriceM , Domenico T Dilorio

4. Dave, brilie, Alan Slade, Ed the Z, Fred the Z, Antm72,

5. Grumps, Roy (A3), Andy Beard, Paul Gunter, Jjim , Mac Romans,

Thanks everyone, hope we get a nice day !

Tony.
