On Sunday the 1st of January (in other words, this Sunday) the Wye Knot 2CV Club will be meeting at 11:30am at Tesco Belmont, Hereford (on the A465 south of the city), for an 11:45am prompt departure (so I'm told) for Hay-on-Wye and a drive upto Hay Common before climbing the mountain known as Lord Hereford's Knob. All Welcome.

Can I come in my Land Rover?

I had a bad experience on Lord Hereford's Knob. It was pouring with rain and the electrics failed climbing the knob. I tried to roll back and reversed into his knob and my rear en got dented.

Of course, just bring some rope as we might need it

Think i might come as i failed with raid Imber yesterday

hopefully we'll come along

Esther don't finish work till about 11.30 so we'll prob have to meet you all up at Hay Common or up the hill known as 'Lord Hereford's Knob' - the name of which kind of puts me off

Oh and only if I have lost this damn cold by then too

Jon, Esther and kids
