Midlands meet 30th March 2014 - Knowle

[Liam-O]

Does the Toby Carvery have rooms? If not any suggestions nearby.
I'm at Bedford Autodrome on Saturday and Snetterton on Monday so I will be staying down South the whole weekend. Thinking of popping to Brands Hatch after breakfast to catch last race of the BTCC.

I don't think the Toby carvery has rooms. Depending on your budget there are quite a few hotels in Solihull town centre which is 5 minutes from knowle. Cheapest is probably the premier inn but no onsite parking, there are some B&Bs around too. Next there's a holiday inn or St Johns hotel is probably the nicest. http://www.stjohnssolihull.co.uk/offers/20-off-when-you-book-direct/?gclid=CIiei7GGp70CFcfKtAodJFoANw

maybe missing something.. what time is it planning to "wrap up"?

If it's earlyish, I'd be up for it, as I'm effectlively going sort of nearly nowhere near it on the way to my mothers for a meal at 1pm

Breakfast ends at 10:30 and people come and go so don't feel you need to stay later. The plans are really open ended, if the weathers nice and people want to go for a drive we can, otherwise drink some more tea and leave whenever.

Premier Inn at Hockley Heath I think.

Not as close but at most 15-20 minutes away

I'd normally recommend the Herons Nest, Knowle for reasonable rooms plus breakfast, but it is closing on Monday for a big refurbishment and the hotel rooms will be closed until end of April.

I didn't know they had rooms, it is a nice place though.

Any more people coming along, only a week away now!

Weathers not looking too bad for Sunday now.

Don't forget the clocks spring forward on Saturday night and we lose an hours sleep. Make sure you change your watch, don't want to miss out on breakfast!

No worries, see you soon.

Is anyone who's coming any good with the BMW software?

I thought that about the F1 but figured Z4 meets were rarer than a race.

I've got a warning light showing for brake pads but I've checked them and they're fine (so are the sensors). I've got all of the software but I'm a bit of a novice was with it and was hoping an expert like yourself could show me the ropes.

I've just managed to get a registered version of navcoder so hopefully that will help me more tomorrow.

Will try to make it down, will have to see what the plans are though as kids have been promised a farm trip and want to take their mum out for dinner!

Would be good if you could make it, I imagine most people will head off by 11 the latest.
