V8
Curry Night 2006
An annual V8 Curry Night has been a tradition of the V8 Register from its formation in 1978. It is usually held in early February and starts the programme of V8 Gatherings for the year! This year the V8 Curry Night is on Saturday 4th February 2006 
The Radhuni, a spacious curry house in the centre of Flackwell Heath, just north east of Marlow in Buckinghamshire. How do you find the Radhuni? 
Flackwell Heath is in the red circle in the top left quadrant of this map - it is east of the A404 and just south east of J4 M40. This map shows the M4/M40/M25 motorway box with the A404, a dual carriageway link road (marked in green) on the western side which runs from J8/9 M4 up to J4 M40, that passes close to Marlow on the lefthand edge of the map above.

on the M25 For members coming to the V8 Curry Night from Kent, Surrey or Sussex and are likely to use the western side of the London's M25 orbital motorway, you need to note a news item from Brian Moyse. Brian Moyse used to commute from Surrey to near Hammersmith in West London every day and reports serious congestion seems likely as the M25 is due to be dug up between Junctions 12 & 15 (on the western side near London Heathrow Terminal 5) from the 5th January 2004. Fortunately Brian has been relocated to the Camberley office of his organisation just in time to avoid the commute and the M25 chaos! Brian mentions a useful webpage on the Highways Agency's website.
