World Record Attempt - Lincs Chat.

This is a little Temporary Thread for any chat about the World Record Attempt shown in the Link.

Done it this way so that the National RSVP Event Thread gets the responses and not our little Linky Thread.

Nothing to stop us talking about it amongst ourselves though !

Here's the Link to the Link. Are you confused ?

Of course not, leave that to me !

Not yet Jill. Looking at this Thread there doesn't seem to a lot of Lincs interest in this right now, I may have to spend some time ploughing through the RSVP's....

My thinking cap blew away in Skegness, along with the few remaining Brain Cells I had left !

I'll have to look at this but very unsure if I will make this trip yet. I seem to be running hard but still going backwards !

Where does the time go ?

Just done a trawl through the RSVP’s for this Event and it does seem that not many of the Lincs Mob are going. The only ones confirmed seem to be rhett71, Alfageezer and jillyflower. ( Firecracker too but for convoy purposes this doesn’t count. Sorry P !!! )

Still think it unlikely that I will be attending either but things could change.

Still time to get more people but if not and you do want a convoy a meet up with the EM Crew could be the way to do it.

Perhaps it will become clearer later………



Have you seen the Lincolnshire Lounge ? Don't stay off the radar, come on in and have a look !

Next Event - Evening Meet In The South Of The Area.
Look Here ! Details TBA Soon.

I registered on the day after it was announced, and was going to meet the Oxford members, but they are not leaving till 10am, doesn't leave much time to drool over other Afas, so I am looking at joining another convoy..... Where I live there seems to be 3 routes to choose from...
Hope you make it Nige...

Sorry Stuart, missed you on the RSVP list, with nearly 300 yes's not really surprising given my reading abilities......

Hard to say what's going to happen, hope enough people turn up at Ancaster so we can have a chat about it......

One part of me says " Yes, it will be fun, " The other bit of me says " What, drive a 400 mile round trip to sit in a traffic jam ? "

In reality my Weekends are pretty much occupied but nothing is set in stone.

Decisions, decisions.

Hi Nick, didn't know you were down for this one, one of the 300 hundred lucky ones then !!

Not many, as far as I can see, going down from Lincolnshire, might be an idea to look at the East Midlands Section to see what convoy arrangements that there may be.

Wasn't much interest here, as far as I know only about six from the Lincs section going.

Did you miss the Post then ?

Don't miss the Meet on the 6 March, very near you and should be a good afternoon. Check it out and tell us you are coming !

TBH I didn't fancy sitting alone in my car for hours and hours and hours. I'm OK with my own company but............

Would also have preferred to do it in the '6 but it's not prepared for an Event like this yet. Shouldn't be too long though - fingers crossed !

Maybe I'll make the 200th..........
