I've got to get some transport again soon!
Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Plainy Janie on July 13, 2006, 01:59:08 PM Unfortunately Connie won't be ready :'( Once the rad is returned tomorrow (Friday), we may then have to ride up to West Drayton to collect some gaskets. I'm interested to know where Urban Terrorist heard about this show as this used to be one of the old haunts dad has spoken about. Not sure he ever went that far though. I wonder if my sister would let me borrow one of her vehicles? I'd love to go. Excuse my ignorance but is it right that the cafe is no longer there? I wonder if any of the guys visiting the busy bee on Saturday ever made the trip down the A30 to the Old Manor Cafe. You've given me an idea!!! :o
Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Manky Monkey on July 13, 2006, 02:04:00 PM I do travel on bikes as well as in cars you know!
Just about to collect your new PINK MMMotors shirt from the printer by the way. Will be in the post to you momentarily. Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Plainy Janie on July 13, 2006, 02:12:42 PM WHY AREN'T YOU DOWN AT THE GARAGE ???
NAG NAG NAG! Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Plainy Janie on July 13, 2006, 02:14:40 PM SUNDAY 3RD SEPTEMBER
Don't book anything else for that day! Its a Busy Bee reunion, if I can't make Saturday, I shall attend September's. I'll see if Dave is up to travelling to West Drayton tomorrow (Friday), hopefully when we finish work on Saturday we'll be free to go. You'll have to ride my bike as its a single seat, or pillion with Dave. Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Plainy Janie on July 13, 2006, 02:15:58 PM Don't post the pink MMM shirt, hang onto it! AND GET DOWN THAT GARAGE!!!
Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Manky Monkey on July 13, 2006, 02:16:36 PM ;D
Because I've been waiting for the printer to finish YOUR shirt so I can rush it to you in the post tonight. :D Garage as soon as I get back I promise. I'm going now... Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Plainy Janie on July 13, 2006, 02:19:20 PM MEN!!!!!
There's always some excuse! I'm working on a way to get to Saturday, leave it with me, but its looking bleak at the moment. Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Manky Monkey on July 13, 2006, 02:19:35 PM Hey! Altering your posts while I'm typing replies is cheating! Got other shirts to post out tonight anyway, but will hang on to yours & await further instructions! :)
Off to the printers. Back soon. Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Manky Monkey on July 13, 2006, 02:21:36 PM She's done it again! Tell you what, for the sake of a quid's postage, I'll send it, in case I don't see you this weekend. Definitely going out now! :)
Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Plainy Janie on July 13, 2006, 02:22:04 PM Don't be back soon! Be back in a couple of hours.!!!
Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Manky Monkey on July 13, 2006, 02:25:51 PM Back from the printers soon, then pack half a dozen assorted shirts in Jiffy bags, traipse off to the Post Office, then trudge to the garage.
I'm still going.....

You've given me an idea!!! :o I know everything ;D ;D The busy bee club meet at the lodge firtst thursday of the month, and it's classic bike night every thursday down there. The site of the bee is now the Hilton hotel :( Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Manky Monkey on July 13, 2006, 09:46:54 PM Never heard of the Bee before Urban. Was it something like the original Ace cafe then?
Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Urban Terrorist on July 14, 2006, 07:07:20 AM You've never heard of it?!!! Someone your age?!!! ;D
Yep, it was like the Ace, there was loads of roadside cafes where bikers met up. The website has abit of history about it all. http://www.watfordbusybee.org.uk/ Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Manky Monkey on July 14, 2006, 08:46:59 AM Cheeky young whipper-snapper! I'm 44, not 104!
Not a Londoner either. Knew there were plenty of cafes but never really delved into the history of it all. Would love to get along but somehow don't think the trike'll be on the road this weekend! Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Plainy Janie on July 17, 2006, 08:27:58 PM did anyone go to this. very sad we couldn't make it. :(
roll on the reunion in September ;D Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Manky Monkey on July 17, 2006, 09:04:23 PM Like the new avatar Janie. Who took that for you then? Nice shirt!
Title: Re: Busy Bee Motorcycle show Post by: Plainy Janie on July 30, 2006, 06:59:16 AM Did anybody go to this in the end?
