[MINI William]

What are people wanting to do? Are yous wanting to do a small run before hand or not that fussed. What time suits people?

[Eddie_JCW]

I'd be up for a run but if there isn't one or I'm too late for it then that's good too :)
As for time unfortunately I'm working till 3.30-4pm :frown:

[DigitalLemming]

Always up for a run :yes nod: but perhaps with folks carrying food/drink/bbqs it would have to be less uhhhh spirited than normal :)

Time wise I'm free all day so anything suits on that side of things.

[weefossy]

William, can you add Mom and I please. Short run and then down to the beach would be great. We are easy on timing.

Is Seacliff the one nr Nth Berwick with the coin operated barrier on road down to it? Which case, better take couple quid in change.

[cuddles]

That's the one think it is now £2 . Mind guys we have all the cans of juice from the car show ,,,,,, so I will have them with me xxx

Guys, we will take the little portable gas BBQ that we had at the SC Show. I ain't doing all the cooking, but peps are more than welcome to cook their own food on it. Saves everyone bringing a disposable one.

[macdevil]

Hi guys, I'm sorry to say I'm going to have to pull out. Truth is, I collected my F56 last Wednesday evening (16th, when I took my photos) but it had to go back to Harry Fairbairn next day as there was a problem with the radio component which was affecting all of the infotainment unit, and my car has been there ever since. It's not a problem that can be resolved locally and its been hooked up to a computer in Munich but repeated update and download failures means that it's still not fixed. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement and I am really sorry I will be missing out today - I have been really looking forward to it. Sorry it's short notice but they were trying again last night to download the very large file again last night but it didn't work and I have just had a call to tell me that - I was hanging on so I knew either way if I'd make it or not, but I guess I'll try to make the next run :-(

Why not come along any way as it's more of a meet than a run ;) phone mini and tell them you want a mini fort the weekend as they have yours I'm sure they will give you one

[MINI William]

As Rob has said why not still come along. Its only a run to the beech rather than a normal run and is more aimed towards a meet rather than a run, so you will be able to put names to faces.

I will bring a collapsible table and a windbreak. How we doing for barbecues? Know dad is bringing one but can get a disposable one if need be

Thanks for the use of the BBQ Malcolm.

What a great evening....really enjoyed the banter. Beach BBQ should become a regular feature. And, the weather was very kind to us.

Such a great evening. Thanks to everyone that came along great food, people and banter as usual.

[digi]

Mega peed off i had to miss this next time i wont advertise it on facebook and just switch the phone off .. still upset about the aloy but have a good "link" for good repairs


will also ask my radio club where they get there t shirts from and ill post a couple of pics for examples

[DigitalLemming]

Great evening once again guys, weather was a bit ropey when we set off but cleared up nicely. Need to make this a regular one I think :)

[Eddie_JCW]

Really enjoyed tonight. As William said great food, people and of course great banter, as usual. I agree with Andrew I think this needs to be a regular thing, of course, typical Scottish weather might be a hindrance.

[EcosseGP]

Great to see loads there, all work and no play at the mo for me but glad the weather held off for you it's was torrential rain here at one point. PMSL at the rear M4 photo !!
