 are we going ,as the weekend before 3ma
  but will simon have his car back by then like last year  ;)

If I haven't got the car back from Mark by the 30th April then we're in real trouble cos I'll need it for the following Wednesday for 3MA11 ::)

Mark is not allowed to even sniff your car until I get my Gamma back!  ;D ;D

I didn't know that he was a 'car sniffer' Theo :o. I was rather hoping that he would be MoT'ing it! :D :D :D

See you all this weekend  ;D

we will be there especially as its a certain sombody's birthday and ive been told they want to spend the
day there.

just the three of us again then????.  although i may be taking a strada this year,  not sure yet. need a multy car transporter really.

I should be there too all going well and I suppose it makes sense to take the 131 as it's only a few days before 3ma11  ;)

Not me it would seem as there's no need for me to be there  >:( :-[

Why not you Theo? You are always a very welcome sight at Mark's and besides, you can't have finished the Gamma rebuild yet - can you?

I haven't been able to get hold of Mark yet to confirm that he'll be there on Saturday for me to drop the Abarth (despite leaving a message ::)) so I might not be making the journey either.  :'(

No I haven't but the car had to go back to the paint shop for them to correct a few things and Tuesday became Thursday morning then Thursday afternoon then Friday last thing.... So the Gamma is not at Mark's this weekend  but sitting idle in the paint shop >:( >:(


Mark is probably (HOPEFULLY!) at the paint shop preparing the Gamma for the respray. Try him on his mobile although I know he is expecting you tomorrow.

I eventually got hold of Mark at lunchtime today and have arranged to drop the Abarth to him early-ish morning tomorrow. He wants to be away for about 11.30 I think so I'm aiming to be there about 10 to 10.30.

Did you Know its Chelsea cruise on saturday as well ,carry on striaght up the A3 and your there , its gone back to its old 80's days out on the chelsea bridge  and the tea stall .  a big write up in retro cars nov 2010 the one with the fiat dino and
 monty (got from market stall saturday ) (also a new goodwood festival Vintage
base on 80's fashion and cars and earlyer )
  Got me thinking and being nostalgic ,when it was a proper criuse , when i used to go on the train at 16
 and in my first fiats and the Black Pa Cresta done like  a 57 chevy oh the memory's .
 had its 35 th anivesary last year ..
 shall we  ;) ;)

The car is now ready for it's first proper test drive before 3ma......hopefully we will meet up with some of you tomorrow.

Out of interest is going to Auto Italia tomorrow? 

Ill bee there , i even gave it its yearly polish ..

Look forward to seeing you tomorrow Jason ;D

Yes, a great day and good to catch up with all the 131 crew. A good showing for the 131 today and the sun was out all day - burning my baldy head ::) 8) ;D I had to buy an 'Abarth' baseball cap - to keep the sun off - honestly Wendy ;D

Had to leave a little after 2pm to get to south London for my little sister's surprise birthday, but still had an excellent day. ;D

Here's to seeing most of you next week on 3MA11 in Devon. Wishing a safe journey to you all! 8)

Had a great day today, this is the first time that we have been allowed into the "inner santum" which is much better than having to park in the "leper's" car park.
The good news is that the car made the 230 miles without any problems....Devon, Cornwall, Lands End here we come ;D ;D

Yes a great day and great weather for it too  :D
