Hi Folks,

Post #1 has been updated with links to the calendar, which has the breakfast menu for you to make your choices and reply to this post with your breakfast and beverage choices, so we can capture them for the venue.

This has been made possible in the last day or so, as we are now able to upload PDF’s to the calendar and forum, which was not possible before and has made life much simpler for AC’s :+1:

Best Regards

Mal, re our chat over the weekend I am afraid I can’t make Sammy Millers, deffo on a three line whip Re visitors. Gutted was looking forward to it as was going to be my first drive out in the new motor. Really enjoyed Sammy’s last time I was there, always something interesting to see, I hope you all have a great time.
Cheers Steve
