Hello all

Anyone know if any members in Sussex (East and West, Brighton too!) are active and/or link into any other areas. I know the Surrey area rep is vacant at the mo - makes most sense to buddy up here.

I am based just outside Chichester and i am in the process of building my 2B Sliding Pillar.

Let me know your thoughts????

Another family venue if anybody was interested:

Hi all

I know we are only half way through May but I thought I would give everyone a 'heads-up' for June for your diaries.

On Saturday 13th June, Richard (richard7), Mick & Stella (mowerman) and I will probably again attend the "HorsePower at the Hall" meet (https://www.facebook.com/horsepoweratthehall, I see we are still their cover photo ) at Doddington Hall near Lincoln, from 09:00 to 12:00. Even with the rain there were still about 100 cars turned out at the May meet, so if the weather if half way decent there should be a much better turnout. A great chance for catching up with everyone, in a petrol-head environment, with a pub lunch afterwards for those interested.

On Sunday 21st there is the annual Castle Bytham Midsummer Fair (http://www.midsummerfair.co.uk/). We had 9 cars there last year and I know everyone who went enjoyed it. It is a 'classic' village show (stalls, classic cars, BBQ, duck race, beer tent, morris dancers, BBMF flypast......). The organisers have said we are welcome to come back, and as the theme this year is the 60s, it is appropriate that they display lots of Lotus 7 lookalikes. Please let me know if you are interested so I can give them a rough idea of numbers.

Still looking for a good weekend for a picnic meet up at Rutland Water

This is a new topic for the August classic car show over the weekend of 22nd and 23rd of August 2015.

Details are here

As per previous shows its free entry for exhibiting car, driver and passenger. Camping is £10 for the weekend and there are toilets, showers, beer tent and usually a band or disco in the evening.

If you want a pass add your name below.

Extra Meeting North East Area on Thursday the 14 May 2015 at 7.00.pm at The Farmhouse Pub (DL2 1JZ)

Hope to see you there.

The Stamford Car Show for 2015 is being held on 30th August. Last year this was a very good show and much appreciated by those that attended. But a few people missed out by not registering before the cutoff date. So if you think you might want to go this year I suggest you register now at http://www.stamfordroundtable.co.uk/car-show/

As it is run for charity there is a £5 entry fee for each car on arrival, but It's free to register,so you have nothing to lose by registering now. Unusually the public get in for free so it is always very well attended.

Please make sure you define your car as a 'Modern Classic' then I'll organise a rendevous point somewhere on the A1 near Stamford so we can arrive in convoy and be parked together.

I'll try and arrange good weather

Basingstoke Festival of Transport is on tomorrow at the War Memorial Park , Basingstoke, 11am to 4pm. Short notice I know but info may be of use to members close by.
