It's gone on holiday to Spain. The rain likes to spend it's summer holidays in the UK...

Given the weather forecast for this Sunday and as I am going to the Valet Pro day the day before, I will not be going to North Weald this month ☹️
If I don't see you on Saturday, see you in July

I was about to ask what other people are thinking for Sunday.

My forecast seems to think the heavy rain should go through Saturday night, and by breakfast time will hopefully be light rain at most, although clearly the roads will still be very wet.

Unless it's absolutely tipping it down, I'm still hoping to make it as my first event - just means I'll have to wash the car again afterwards :-).

Anyone want to meet up at Tesco Hatfield @ 7:45

I'll be in the Excel if wet, Esprit if dry.

I'll be leaving at 10 as I've got to take my son to hockey (unless I can persuade my wife to do this)

I'll be coming out of Canary Wharf so will head straight there, hopefully in the Esprit. Even if it is raining a bit will be a useful leak test as it hasn't really been driven in the rain yet!

Yeah If I come happy to do that..  

[Kevjp]

Chris,  what way you going after that? If it is via ware (along A414) we could meet along the way....We will be coming down the A10

[ChrisJ]

@Kevjp - yes along the A414. I guess through Hertford around 8am. Where do you want to meet? There's that layby after the Hertford roundabout?

Ok, We will wait in the layby on the A10 just after the Hertford turnoff 👍

[ChrisJ]

Unless we beat you there

Days of moving my daughter and building furniture have caused an oversleep condition.  Must be getting old!  Have fun, guys.

Many thanks Chris for organising today - the weather just about held out for us! Was wonderful to attend my first event with my fairly recently acquired S3 HC NA, meet some great people and see a range of both classic and modern Lotuses. Thanks to all for the various tips and pieces  of advice - all very welcome as a newcomer to owning a 34 year old Esprit. Looking forward to the next one, and hoping I can make it - will check the calendar as soon as the date is announced.

A couple of photos off my phone from this morning, as I forgot to bring a proper camera. 

[G10YEA]

Cheers for today guys  nice to meet and speak with you! 💛

[paulbrown22]

Great to meet you George, and much better pictures than mine! Will have to remember to bring a decent camera next time, and we need to do an Esprit lineup too, that was a very good idea.

Good to meet you George,hope to see you at the next one

[Bling]

Although I couldn't make it today, thanks for the photos, next best thing to being there

[Chillidoggy]

We would have attended but had a domestic issue with my mother which prevented us from doing so.

I hope it all went well, maybe see you at the next one.
