Date: Sunday 2nd August 2009
Location: Paradise (5 miles west of Bedford UK)
Event: Renault 4 BBQ and sausage hunt
Finally a date for the long awaited summer barbecue. The event will be held on the finely manicured lawns of Paradise Farm located 5 miles to the west of Bedford and only 15 minutes from M1 jn14.
Paradise is blessed with sunshine, fruit trees, walking, a new fishing lake without fish, and barns full of Renault 4s in every possible state of disrepair. Most importantly it's a nice grassy spot and we have a big BBQ.
The main event is an afternoon of barbecue cooked lunch and chat with fellow daft people. We're a hour north of London, but could well be anywhere up to 4 hours from the rest of the world. Arrive when you like, but if you want to take part in the great sausage run try to be here by 11:45.
For the sausage run we'll set off at 12:00 to the local supermarket to buy the sausages. (People always bring too many sausages to barbecues so let's buy them on the day.) Drivers will be set off at 30 second intervals and each driver will be given different directions so there's a fair chance you'll be able to wave at eachother as you pass along the way. We'll return from the supermarket in proud convoy and should be back in Paradise by 12:45 to meet the latecomers. Total distance should be less than 6 miles.
Reidalpine is coming all the way from Norway to attend this prestigious event. So there's no excuse for the rest of you.
I don't want to give out the address on the internet as I live in Paradise Farm. If you would like to come along please click the yes option in the poll and I'll send the address, or send me a private message to let me know you want to come along. There's no time limit for entries, though anyone expressing an interest after 2nd Aug will have missed the fun.

the wonderful 'Blackadder' tv comedy series is a personal favourite and the 'word smithing' quality is equivalent to 'Victoria steam coal' so highly prized by our early navy - 92% pure 'c' - high octane, quality stuff. Bleubelle would be your best bet for a 'Savane bun'.
