If any Europa owners are planning to fly in to Bicester on the Saturday and
need a comfy bed for the night we would be happy to help. We only live 5
miles away from Bicester and are planning to attend the evening function. We
can provide transport to and from the airfield.
If interested, please call us on 01296 738129 or 07768 473222 (the earlier
the better).
Carl & Dot Pattinson.
