Classics at the Castle, Sherbourne - Sunday 17th July 2011

[tangocharlie1]

Reg is coming in on the A303 which would be way north of us, we would probably come in via Blandford Forum best bet would be to meet in Sherbourne itself, bear in mind there are two castles listed in Sherbourne we require the New one.

I feel a convoy coming on ..........albeit could be me you and Davbat...

Is J cook going and have you spoken to Dave?

[tangocharlie1]

Not heard from John C or Jon T, Davbat is planning on meeting us at rownhams but said if he is not there by 0815am go without him as he will be running late. Carl also expressed an interest and may show up at Rownhams but said he would call us if he was on his way.

Spoke to Shane Scammell he lives near Sherbourne and is going but won't have his Sprint with him.
