Apologies again for not being able to attend. I hope you all have a great day and have a safe journey.

Well unless something catastrophic happens (fingers crossed!! ) I should hopefully be seeing everyone at the tescos meeting point

I've ironed out some of the issues luigi was suffering from such as the throttle cable, idle issue and I checked the timing out using my strobe light and found it out slightly so readjusted that.

Soooooooo I've cleaned, buffed and polished him ready for tomorrow - see you all there

I've arranged with the Café that if there's over 20 of us i'll let them know,
( we took over the Monmouth place "thanks Jo")




I know most locals will start at the Didcot end, and convoy through,
but for others the drive from Reading/ Maidenhead will be direct to the Café,
http://www.h-cafe.co.uk/apps/location/




if you hit traffic / are running late - head straight to the café,
JUST AVOID Central OXFORD..!!
the A34 / southern bypass is o.k. - Eastern bypass from M40 (London) can get pretty busy too...

Excellent day out in the sunshine today guys and nice to see a variety of fiats aswell - my car of the day was the Stilo abarth. 5 door. Super rare and only 30.000 miles from new

The trip down there wasn't without a few tiny problems though I had a slight mis fire due to me fiddling with the dizzy last night but luckily at the meet point there was a halfords at hand and moments later armed with a 13mm spanner I was able to undo the nut an tap it back a few degrees. However starting it back up again I yanked the choke cable a little to had and it jammed open. Oops. Luckily varesecrazy turned up right on time and saved me from purchasing yet another flat blade screwdriver so I could undo the cable........thanks Charlie

So anyway the cafe was tip top so was the weather and the company even better than that! Here's a few pics







Roll on next meat
