Please make sure you come into Brighton Hill Retail Park: Winchester Rd, Basingstoke RG22 4AN. I'll be there from 11.30am. Chances of you lot arriving at 11.45 pretty slim I bet! SM meets are like herding cats

Screenwash tank full. Fuel tank full. Car washed. Ran out of light. Its a bit grubby where I will have to be sitting.

Looking forward to it immensely.
