Dear Colleagues Home of the Legend at Solihull are doing a weekend of driving in Aid of Troop aid in late Febuary.... This is likely to prove quite popular, so book early if you want to take part - please add your name to this thread - perhaps we can get together over the weekend.

What's the format Alan ? I'm assuming it's a charity thing but do we need to raise sponsorship or is a buy a session type thing ?

Hi Guys,The format for this is to contact HOTL from the PDF file on top of the page - all money raised is going to Troop Aid. If anyone is available on either day to help for a morning or afternoon, I'm sure it would be appreciated - more details nearer the time They normally open the shop and offer some sort of discount. Its also a good opportunity to get together....so if you do 'book in' post your date and time etc....

I know Dave!!!! Not as green as I am cabbage looking. I know tamworth is beyond where I need to go, which is why I said I'd route plan it tomorrow! Was just being polite and saying I'd have a look and probably go with it to go in a mini convoy!
I'll await the next daft reply!;)
