Caffeine & Machine Meet

[Bubbles]

So, after a lot of interest in the spotted forum, I think It would be a good idea to organise a meet

I have a friend visiting from oop north the weekend of 20th/21st of july - so weather dependant I was thinking sunday the 21st july? how does that fit with everyone?

The venue:

Caffeine and Machine
Ettington
CV37 7NS

Home - Caffeine & Machine

caffeineandmachine.com

Parking charge : I paid £5, others have prebooked a space and paid £10 - you are given a car sticker on arrival, and if you present this at a bar you get money off a drink

Its a great place, a mecca for some amazing cars, and I haven't been to a cliosport meet since I was 22? (34 soon..) so it'll be interesting to meet some new people even - non clios are welcome!! I wont be in one

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Yeah I'd be up for this

 

[Jekyll]

I'd definitely recommend pre booking as sundays are very popular and if there is no space, they can turn you away as parking on the roads is not allowed.

Will you be in the new motor??

 

[Daz...]

As already said, I’ll be up for this.

I’ll no doubt pop over before then anyway!

 

[MrBlonde]

I should hopefully be able to do this.

 

[MrBlonde]

Be tight tho,as weekend before is CSF then weekend after i go to scotland for a week,then that weekend im back its this C&M meet ?
Ive not bought a CSF ticket yet as its a maybe if i will go for the day.

 

[mart.z.s]

I’d possibly be up for it but as above CSF is 2 weekends before. Not as far as I first thought though.

 

[Eddie555]

I can drop in for a couple of hrs on the Sunday morning.

I've always rocked up in the afternoon (cause I'm lazy) and always been fine.
Several reasons for afternoon arrival - lie in (best one), better menu, more chilled out, don't have to pay, always a space, more of a steady flow of cars coming and going, less guilt having a pint.

If you haven't been when the full menu is on, you need to. YOU HAVE TO TRY THE BACON WRAPPED ONION RINGS. And the build your own burger is ace, amongst other things on the menu. I don't think they serve this until after midday.

But yes, I'll make an appearance whenever the finalised date is. Probably wont be until around 12 though

 

[Clio_fool]

I think my diary is clear that Sunday. I'll double check and book a parking spot if I'm going.

 

[S-JM]

I'll be going cars in the park again, as a guest again as it was a pleasure to stroll right in past the queues, who wants to see a battered EP3 anyway?

Ignore me, wrong forum, wrong topic

 

[cliocollins]

I'll certainly make another appearance. Loved last weekend, I can imagine with better weather it would a great day!

Is it worth arranging meeting points on route for those travelling from a far. I'm guessing most of us will be on the M1 at some point..

 

[andy_coops]

Should be able to make this. Be good to meet some of you gents.

 

[LTEpic]

Shame its so far

 

[Clio_fool]

Shame its so far

How far is too far? I think I might suffer a couple of hours in a noisy clio for this ?.

@Steve_RS2250 if there's an Integrale there get me some pics mate

 

[Stay Puft]

Potentially come on the bike if i’m not working!

3 hours each way is a bit much. Get yourself to Lotherton Hall instead then!

[Clio_fool]

I think I'll have to skip this, it's the weekend before I go on holiday again??

 

[alexessex_7]

I'd be up for this

 

[Lee]

Might shoot over if I’m free.

 

[Ben Cook]

Yep I’d be up for this. When last Sunday and had a great morning.

 

[Bubbles]

So peeps.. it’s this weekend, are we thinking of meeting at a certain time? Do people want to get there early? Or around 10?

 

[Daz...]

I will probably be looking to get there for about 10, still waiting for my lad to decide if he wants to come or not.

 

[Ben Cook]

Earlier the better, if the weathers good will get very busy from 10 onwards.

 

[Bubbles]

Weather looks to be cloudy and 22 degrees

 

[Eddie555]

I blew my Gearbox up at Donnie on Monday so won’t be able to make it. ?‍♂️

 

[Bubbles]

Yeah I'd be up for this

Are you all still able to make it? Shall we say 10am? X

 

[Daz...]

Should be there, cleaned the car yesterday in preparation for today’s rain ?

 

[cliocollins]

Yep I'm still game. Not cleaned it yet but I'll give it a wipe on arrival.

[Daz...]

@Bubbles said Sunday in the opening post so that’s what I planned for.
