[Jimmy Saville]Now then now then boys & girls (and HM)....[/Jimmy Saville]


It's time to organise the AONW run down to Auto Italia on Sunday June 7th

Here's a link to last year's piccie thread to whet your appetities: 2007 http://www.alfaowner.com/Forum/just-...alia-pics.html 2008 http://www.alfaowner.com/Forum/just-...talia-day.html

Auto Italia is my favourite of all the big days out and has always proved to be a good laugh, and a good convoy opportunity on the way down, especially the derestricted TOLL part of the M6.

We'll be meeting up with AO-ers from all other regions 5 minutes away from the venue with a view to heading into Stamford Hall en masse

SO LET'S ALL MEET AT KNUTSFORD SERVICES AT 8.15AM WITH A VIEW TO LEAVING THERE AT 8.30AM



So who's gonna be joining us?
