Pretty much what I was thinking :)

So far, from this thread, I can only see the following being there:
    MOD
    Hihonyr8811
    Cluny
    10680
    XP
    Dougs
    LeeB
    Gully

Its near enough 100% I will be there now \:D/ , LMW's social life has been arranged for this month (birthday parties galore when you're 7 and three quarters).

And obviously the 655 crowd who will be busy on the day but if they happen to be free at the agreed time would be great to see them B-)
Sooty655, Bovril, Marmite, Ramshornvortex, Crew Chief, Bornagainliney, WaddoVet, Snapper, Avs, Bry, and Kermit. (apologies to anyone I've missed)

As a matter of trivia, by my calculations it will IA's 1000th day online by the date of Wings and Wheels .... those not attending need to ensure it's celebrated in style ;) :P :o)

Well, it's your own choice. You have a permanent standing invitation, and I'm sure DT could get his own dinner for once. ;)

Metcheck shows the same, but yesterday they were predicting 302mph winds (Yes, three hundred and two miles per hour), so I suggest a pinch of salt might be a good dietary addition. :))
