Non POL attendees thread

I can't go to POL this year

, instead I'm having a weekend away with SWMBO

To make matters worse, not only am i not going to POL but i don't even get to drive my ZT or TF or her 3

I'm having to take the works Toyota Avensis as my son needs his Tuba and his pal delivered to Yorkshire ( bet you didn't know Tubas don't fit in a saloons boot)

It will be nice being away with Miriam but i do wish i was heading to Cofton park!

So if you aren't going to POL, what are you doing instead?

Choral singing at Good Friday and Easter Day services, reinstalling the satnav in my Volvo, continuing to dismantle and repair a Yamaha Thundercat. Hopefully get some time to exercise the JZR.

And of course there's F1 and IIRC, BTCC to pull in........

Apart from that, a boring weekend!!

PS Simon, way back when, my Dad used to cart my drum kit around for me before I was old enough to drive, and he was heard to mutter on several occasions "next time m'lad, you're going to play the piccolo". Perhaps you could learn from this?

Not going to POL either but will be attending the Monogram line up at Ragley Hall on Sunday. Saturday will be spent getting Banana ready. I'll be back to building the Lamborghini today and on Monday down the pub.

No POL for me. Sunday is the first run of the year for the MG Car, Club Caledonian Centre ending at Gloagburn Farm Tibbermore Perth so im going on that. Driving the MG around Scotland's A and B roads is much better than standing in a big field!

Probably nothing car related other than washing & vacuuming them - then finishing sorting and re-painting my office.

And then whatever else I can be bothered to do (or the wife lets me

)

I shall be doing absolutely nowt, The staff are having the weekend off & these Rolexs wont wind themselves.

I'll be looking after the Easter campers down on the campsite in the mornings, then I'll be attempting to change the timing belt, tensioner and water pump on my MGF

I'd love to be going to POL though.

I've been to three POL and have always really enjoyed the atmosphere etc.
