I didn't think it would be that obvious! :D :wink:

If there is anywhere that is close to a junction of the M27 with good access elsewhere that someone wants to suggest then please feel free as we were at the Empress last week, if not, then the Empress would be great for me. :D

I will be coming from Portsmouth but am unsure of the timing yet! :P

I was hoping to suggest somewhere nearer me, if I do manage the engine swap in time I dont want to have to drive on the motorway to test it out, prehaps we could go to the windmill in Burseldon again? Nice easy access from the motorway, big car park....

This is the last chance i am going to get to check the message board before i set off, so where are we meeting tonight? I will presume that it is the Empress unless anyone texts me (Rob?) to say otherwise. I do not know where the Windmill is and it is not listed on the SADMOG site under pubs so i will have no directions if that is where is chosen! I may or may not see you all later! :-?

When the engine oil and water, diff and gearbox oil and brake fluid have been replaced. Propshaft, windscreen, carpets, headlights, bumpers, wipers, roof frame and hood fitted. Speedo, trafficators and all electrics cleaned and checked. Kick plates, sill finishers and wing repainted.
Last but not least - the fun bit - persuading the DVLA that *** AAL still exists and is ready for the road :o
