Finally got some confirmation through that we are all good for this ... so set phazers for chips and burgers we're heading to The Ace to gatecrash (with permission) Classic Car Night for our usual Awards nights shindig. Facebook yourself up here : www.facebook.com/events/497181047063935/ .. share with your friends. We start giving out awards about 8pm.. getting people inside is like herding cats, so set an alarm or something. Usual stuff applies, we're there on someone elses night so please be as relaxed as we like to be. If you're not allowed in (and we've got instructions at the gate to be a touch more lenient on what a 'classic' is) we'll try and park up nicely on the other side of the road and along the road itself if there is room See you there... Dress code : Black tie and ball gowns.

But my ball gown is at the cleaners! Where "cleaners" = HARDCORE's Mum's floor I can vouch for this. I'll be there, but may well be late and in something horrid. Edited to add that for those of you too cool for Facebook, it's at the Ace on Tuesday January 14th from 6pm to 11pm

Just gutted I can't make this tonight as I've yet to get to an RR meet and this is pretty local(ish) for me...!!!
If I wasn't spinning some tunes I'd be at the Ace drooling over some metal and applauding the award winners...
I guess I'll just have to make do with the pictures of the event!
Have a great night all...

Not a cloud in the sky and balmy 70 degree temperatures in London town today This may not all be true.
