Just wondering if we're still on for a meet up at the Princess Louise in High Holborn with Alan on Thursday evening. At the last count I think John Clancy, Kev, Tony and I were planning to try and get along there.

Are we still on? Any one else interested?? I'm sure they'll have a nice warm bitter on tap [Wink]

Hi Mike,

Have you been getting our emails in the last few days? We thought you may have gone on hols (again)?

Yes, still hoping to visit our royal relation.

What time?

Hello Tony

Haven't had any emails about Princess Lou, may be I've been missing a few? Deffinately going to be there on Thursday, getting the train up to town straight from work and having a bite with a mate so be along to Princess Lou at about 8ish I guess.

Hi Guys,
What about a bit earlier?

Kev.

Posted by Mike Peckham (Member # 16) on October 17, 2004, 01:43 PM:

Kev, I'll probably get into Victoria [nice girl [Wink]

] at about 5:30 depending on the trains. So, having a bite with a mate I could probably then make it too Princess Lou' [yet to meet her] by about 7:00 does that help?

Mike [Cool]

Exciting! [Smile]

Shall we make it a definite 7pm? As my London abode is only a 10 minute walk away we could always have a dabble round there later if we fancy it.

Posted by Kevin Faulkner (Member # 6) on October 18, 2004, 05:26 AM:

That all sounds a bit better. Now to find her [Wink]

and a dabble sounds good to me. Hope there's somewhere to put the CBR safe for a few hours?

Kev.

I presume a CBR is a motorbike? If so, Red Lion Square must have bike bays. If not, Russell Square certainly does, as does Bloomsbury Square about 200 yards north of the Princess Louise.

CBR- Kev..you rebel rouser! I use to own a CBR 600 Honda as well. I felt it was a little top heavy...but then again Im not a big guy.. despite all the heavy projectors that I purchase!

Thursday is almost upon us. The Princess Louise has an upstairs bar we may have to use dependent upon how busy it is. If anyone is coming along that is worried about identifying fellow collectors then please email me at john.clancy@bfcc.biz.

Posted by Kevin Faulkner (Member # 6) on October 20, 2004, 04:59 PM:

And me & my Helmet!!! [Big Grin]

Alan I do understand what you mean about top heavy. I would like one of the new 600 RR's next. [Smile]

Kevin
Last time I saw you you had dispensed with the Honda and brought a Kwacker, why the change back [Confused]

Cornish Ian,

Should you really be riding bikes and weraing carpet slippers? Still I guess the old pasty helmet comes in handy? [Wink]

I wonder how the drink's are going tonight at the Princess Louise- I bet Alan is clobbered after that trans -Atlantic flight.
Wish I was there!

I'm sure you're all having a great time tonight while Paul and I stay local and think back on the fun we had 5 months ago...........

Hello Paul and Doug. Alan and Rachel managed to find us and we had a few ales in the Princess Louise then a bit of a show and a chat around at my place.

Tony Milman, Rob Koelling, Kevin Faulkner, Mike Peckham, myself and my wife, Susie all attended last night so it was a pretty good turn out of 8mm forumcaters. I hope Alan and Rachel enjoy a bit of London life today and then the BFCC tomorrow.

I certainly appreciate the efforts all of you have gone to to attend BFCC's this year. It's made it all that bit more special.
