Brazilian Bay Picnic - Sat 16th Oct 2010

You may have read that the Danbury Day is now postponed.

I had put this in my diary as a day I was off somewhere in my Bay. I'm still up for a meet with fellow BraziBayers so I propose we meet somewhere equidistant for a picnic. So if you're interested - please reply and if you can recommend somewhere central a group of us could convene please suggest it. Over to you.

I am not washing my hair now so yeah why not. Cant do a stop over but happy to meet somewhere not too far and depending on the weather.

It's not a stopover. Just meet n greet. Can't predict the weather I'm afraid though.

This may sound daft but here goes. This may only appeal to members who are in the home counties. How about a two hour meet (as time is precious) on the open rooftop car park @ Heathrow Terminal 3. Its always empty with plenty of spaces. We can meet there and spend a couple of hours getting aquainted with one another and have a good look at everyones bus. I am sure the clearance is big enough for the Brazi and I think it will cost approx £6. Just think of the photos we could take with Virgin, Singapore Airlines etc taking off in the background. Could even rustle up some bangers in buns with a cuppa.

Reading back it sounds mad but who cares

The space in the car park is very tight, dought you'll fit if you've got a roof rack on, plus I don't really want to spend my day off back at work.
Security is pretty tight theses days, don't think they will take too kindly too it either.

I was sort of counting on being in the Gloucester area anyway that weekend as I'm off to see my Sister, was going to kill two birds with one stone. Maybee somewhere along the A34 or the M4

Sorry Kiteman, didnt realise you worked at the airport, dont blame you for not wanting to be there on your day off. By the way the height clearance is 2200mm (7'02") according to the Danbury spec if we can trust that the height of a Brazibay with raising roof is 2040mm (6'10") so it would be tight. Along the M4 would be too far for me from West Essex.

Sorry peeps, would love to met up but as originally posted, in Brighton looking at uni

This is the clincher - wherever we end up, I'll be bringing along some Bus Stickers so you can buy one - how could you possibly not want to come along now??!!

How about this place: Basildon Park.

Hi Tim,

Basildon Park works for me, I have the day ringfenced and keen to meet up.

Cheers K.

Yep. sounds good to me.

Hope the weathers good for you, have a good meet up, wish we could be there.

Right you lot. I'll see thee - whoever's coming - at Basildon Park, in the car park, at midday tomorrow. I'll be the one in the red under white Brazibay!

I'll have the kettle on.

White no sugar for me

Sorry Guys and Gals, not going to be able to make it , it's all got a bit chaotic and Saturday seems to be the only day I have to get stuff sorted.

This is the first time I've done a full Monday to Friday in about 15 years, how the hell to you guys manage to get stuff done, I miss shift work all ready.

More like a private meet in the end as only Tim and I made it, but great to catch up & talk Brazibay…Also Tim makes a mean mug of coffee even on a slope!

Must look into those self levelling Galley hobs

Seriously, shame you folks couldn’t make it as would have been nice to meet, but I know how hectic life is these days. Hope to meet some of you before the end of the year.

Cheers K.
