I enjoyed it as well, not the best steak but definitely not the worse, was also entertaining watching Big E trying to explain to the waitress he didn't want cucumber lol

:nod::agreed:

Agreed too, I thought the grub there was pretty good to be honest, but we could give somewhere else a try!

We can do some searches and go with the popular choice :ok:

No on the 2nd year we did go down to Cochem, as I remember the waiting staff didn't speak our lingo.

It would nice to eat in one of the riverside hostelries, but I would imagine it might be pricey though.

That's it Cochem. Stunning place .
Love it, 5 months yet and we are discussing where to eat out .

My plans go something like this.
Feb- exhaust fitting and Map
March - pay for acomodation
April- pay for breakdown and track insurance
May- final prep, octane booster, oil etc

:-) :-) :-)

We went to the restaurant in Adenauer first year, where we met the guy who was a member on here (mark) that was quite nice, not too expensive either, then all the lads went on the piss to sliders and the like!

Sliders, don't know that place :-)

I loved Cock'em too. A meal in a reverside restaurant would be cool.

Steve, I'll show you that photogenic place near the hotel. Ran out of time last year :)

Thread cleaned up and banter moved to : http://www.southeastscoobies.co.uk/v...ad.php?t=11052

Thanks Scott

Now that was a good steak house. Wonder what happend to Mark???:scoob:

That would be cool mate :ok:

It was good in there.

He moved back over here I think and drifted away from scoobies IIRC.

Balls.......only just seen this.

Will need to check with hours/shift at work etc.


Steve

Bristol crowd over to the Ring on Fri 25th and staying for 2 nights, then driving and staying at Spa Sun & Mon. Driving back on Tue 29th.

What's peoples thoughts for best Hotel at the ring ?
Seen Ringhaus on post #61 and Burgstube on post #70 .

We are all up for meeting up with The Admiral crowd on Sat night at Pistenklause as stated on post #209.

Just read this Mmmmm interesting :twisted:

Hmmm, Pistenklause steakhouse might be busy then, best we book asap if we're gonna go there.

So are we travelling out on the Friday ?
For some reason i thought we were going Thursday to Tuesday as was thinking about coming back Monday (if leaving on Thursday) if that makes sense.

I believe we are getting 8ish am boat Friday.

Cheer's Martyn, I'm just about to ping an email to RobEvo5's Leman gang as they are keen to come along, so better get the dates right ;)

Don't quote me on it though mate, just what I think Mr Gummidge was planning.

How is it that every year I always have stuff to get sorted on the scoob.
This year diferent scoob and needs clutch, plus having exhaust and remap.

One year I do hope I can just wash and go :-)

Take your old one job done.

You would probably enjoy it more because you would not be so worried about any miss haps.

You couldn't be more wrong mate, I didn't spend 12k to leave it at home on the best drive of the year

I agree with what your saying about the money, you have spent.

For me though it would good one year to drive a lesser valued car round the ring,

so that if the sh1t did hit the fan,

it would not be such a catastrophe as it would be should something go wrong with your latest pride and joy.

Perfect world would be drive pride and joy down and then rag a hired track car around

That's a very small list compared to mine :)

How comes James , thought yours is all sorted

Now confirmed with work! Cannot get childcare for the revised dates so the missus can't come, but have a potential for my +1. Need to work out what car I'll be taking next..

Like Martyn said mate, 8.00am boat out on Friday and return home on Tuesday. Some people may want to leave early and go on Monday, but with the track open all day I thought it was well worth an extra day off work :drive:

Strip interior, then fit the 6point cage and weld in, Empty back doors and cover, then Respray the interior

Then remap and fit new external waste gate

Then fit all my white line goodies in the garage

Not much then?

:whistle:

I am struggling. Mike's not able to do it, so no wing man at the moment and I am trying to shift holiday dates around at work :brickwall:. I will take my name off the list to alow someone else to step in as its not looking likely for me. If I can change it, and there is still space, then great, but I dont want to stop someone else going if I bail out. :doubledown:

No lucky thats not good,

I thought you were the BOSS. :lol:


perhaps you should get together with Greg ??

Thats a shame Lucky :(

Hopefully you can sort something out, think of the bottles of red wine you'll be missing!!

Blimey James plenty to do.

Good idea Ian , steve and Greig

Believe me guys, I am doing my best to get it sorted. Problem I have is there are 3 of us in my office and this clashes with one of the others time off, so if i am away it leaves one, which doesnt work.

Steve I know what you mean, there's only two of us that run the south install , we can't both have same time off .
Fortunately he has not booked any holiday yet.

:doubledown::doubledown::doubledown:

Sorry guys - been mulling it over and given we'd have to come over Friday evening/night arriving around 11/12pm and leave Sunday afternoon it's just not worth it for basically one day as the trip cost will not be much cheaper than the full deal due to having to get the tunnel. Hope you guys have a good one.

Oh Nick that's such a shame .
Do understand though, it's an expensive couple of days .

If we could have stayed until the Monday I'd have gone for it like our first year but without the bank holiday it's only really a one day trip!
