Nice and central this time ... and probably less rainy than Keswick :)

Yeah,
was thinking about it for Saturday only.  Not currently a member but subs
dept told me that shouldn't be a problem.

Weather looking a trifle questionable though.

Just a question of whether I bring the C900 or the 9000 Anniversary.....

Nor me ... I'll be a day visitor on Saturday. The bring and buy in the
morning is always good and this year, they're doing the "best of show" on
Saturday afternoon.

I'll be going from the West Midlands this time (from my folks), so if anyone
in that area fancies meeting a few of us at Tesco car park Shirley, Solihull
(end of the A34/Junction 4 of the M42) about 9:00 AM, you'll be more than
welcome. Should be about an hour Aero time, given traffic, up to
Staffordshire :)

> Weather looking a trifle questionable though.

Yeah, but you'll be among friends ... Keswick last year was *very* wet, so
we trolleyed off to a local inn and drank a few of the local poisons :)

Bring the C900 - there's a stack of Anni and Aero owners from UK SAABs
going.

Yeah, I'll be there,
gonna have to bring the ankle biters though.  My good lady (the Anni' owner)
is working.  However, I don't think I'll subject them to the promised face
paining!

'fraid not. I did very much intend to go to the Denmark International last
year ... Erm, and to the Trollhättan last month ... But ... One of these
days, I will. I'm having a working holiday this year - loads to do in the
house and garden. Enjoy it.

I'll look out for you ... You're the guy with the dodgy goatie, right?

I'm at Phil & Phil's tomorrow, BTW, for a new WUR fitting and proper CO
tuning. That should get the old girl driving properly for the weekend.

Talking of old girls (did I say that out loud?), my Debo will probably sit
in the car all day reading (she does like doing that, honest :) ), so just
tap on the white Aero with the Orca in the front window and I'm sure she'll
point you in the right direction :)

No, I'm the FAT guy with the dodgy goatee!

Just had Phil and Phil tune up a remanufactured AMM for me, but doesn't seem
to have gone too well.  Hmmm, think I'll just drop the old one back in.
They did new shocks all round and a new rad and thermostat so at least she's
running smooth and cool!

(WUR?!?)

Mine is easy to spot as I haven't touched the bodywork yet, (grey Aero) I
call her "work in progress" also will have two sprogs in tow, both Saab fans
at 9 and 5 years respectively.  Both of them like "turbo grin"

See ya there

Steve  9000 - 28 Jul 2005 10:40 GMT
Good morning,

I tried to send this message last night and I know it takes a while to post
but..
Although I have hardly contributed to newsgroup, I would just like to say
I'm going and dragging the family along screaming.
Not really, I know the trick now I just bribe them.
We are stopping at a Premier travel inn at Stafford north.
I have a 9000 that you won't miss as I'm so anal about the cleaning and
polishing.
My house is falling to bits but the car's shiny.
The bribe?  Sunday at Alton towers. wheeeeee.
With this weather I don't suppose we will bother if we get wet on the log
flume.

Steve.
