Flying in is looking pretty iffy for tomorrow weather wise still for us
only 90 minutes' drive to Basingstoke so we'll be there regardless.
Looking out the window now its bright sunshine (Buckingham) and rain was
forecast so hopefully the weather men have got it wrong for tomorrow as
well.
Any idea of timings for the barbecue and AGM - sure its published somewhere
but no idea where.
Sunday is looking like a better day but we'll have to wait and see.
Actually the link below is showing quite reasonable weather for Saturday and
Sunday http://www.xcweather.co.uk/GB/forecast - sure you haven't doctored it
to encourage attendance ?

Subject: Europa-List: Europa Club Bash - This Weekend
Just a reminder to our members that the Europa Club will be holding its 2013
Annual General Meeting and general "Good-time-bash" this Saturday at Popham
airfield (EGHP - http://ukga.com/airfield/popham) and we will be open for
business from late Friday afternoon through to Sunday - you are all
cordially invited.
We will have two large marquees so that anyone wishing to stay will have
somewhere sheltered to stay over Friday and Saturday Night.
Popham has a toilet block with washing facilities (but sadly now showers).
To encourage you to come, the club will be providing a barbeque midday
Saturday. On offer; ground mince burgers (with not a trace of horse), pork
steaks, spicy chicken and beefsteaks. All we ask is that to bring along a
pudding.
On Saturday evening, to encourage you to stay over and make a party out of
the event, our resident Chinese chef, Wun Hung-Lo will be providing what I
think he said was "Stirred Fly wiv Lice". I'm not sure what that is but I
have seen large piles of Dim Sum and chicken with black bean in his 'fridge.
We have arranged for a couple of Pins of real ale but would invite you all
to "bring a bottle" We have disposable glasses, but if you prefer to drink
with style, please bring along your favourite tankard or wine glass.
If anyone is musical, please bring along an instrument to provide some
entertainment. I am waiting to see someone arrive with a double bass in a
Europa.
Sunday morning we will be providing bacon and eggs with fresh coffee, and
then, much as we love you all, you'll have to shove off, as we'll need to
get the marquees down!
If any of the old Yorkshire "Europa Aviation" team is out there and
listening, we would love to see you - Ivan, Andy, Nev, Roger or John.
(Remember lads; the food is free ;-).
Nigel
