Hi all,

My wife was that disappointed that hollowell was not open to us this year that she decided to find something else. She has emailed a number of events/Rallies and has had some welcoming replies. we are looking to give them numbers in the first instance but as with hollowell you will need to register (form links below).

Thanks for getting back to me!

Great, I will get my husband to put something on the forum, I will come back to you with numbers soon, I have given them a deadline of 3 weeks if that is ok. The car owners do prefer to move the cars at night to where they are sleeping, would this be an issue?

Also, is there any evening entertainment provided and most importantly a bar?

Thanks

Becky

Hi, thank you for your email. Can I apologies for the delay in replying. Please see attached entry form as requested. If you could get a group of kit cars together that would be great and I am sure there would be plenty of public interest. Camping is provided free for all exhibitors. Looking forward to hearing from you. Simon.

Look Like a good event http://www.pickeringsteam.com/

Hi Rebecca

We are always looking to offer the paying public something different and I would think your club could fit the bill.

I have attached an entry form for you to download and print off for your members.

Is the meet on this weds?

After the success of this meet in March and with Al away I thought I would highlight this date in April. Also loving the fact they still have our line up of Robin Hoods as the cover photo on their facebook page with mine nearest the camera.

Saturday 4th April 2015 meet at 9am at the BP garage (postcode LN6 3LF) at the junction of Doddington Road (B1190) and Lincoln Bypass (A46). The garage is accessed from Doddington Road.

Then we can travel in convoy to Doddington Hall and arrive in style like last month.

There is a great mix of kits, classics, modified, American cars etc.

The meet lasts till 12 noon. We can then go to Woodcocks pub for lunch.

Look forward to seeing you all there.

Is any-one else going to the meeting at the The Church Mouse Chester le Street, DH2 3RJ on Wednesday? I will be there about 8pm,hope to see you there. Alan

The first meet weill be at Aeron View Camping Blaenpennal on Saturday 4th April. Its an informal get together combined with our open day. All are welcome to come over. There will be a barbque music an egg hunt for the kids and hopefully quite a lot of people. Starts at 4 p.m hope to see you there.

I'm looking at organising a return trip to L'Orangerie gite on the above dates.

Already have a few people interested but there are some spare places. The cost for the gite is about £95 per person for the week plus your ferry/tunnel crossing, fuel, food and drink.

The gite can be seen at http://www.homeaway.co.uk/p421125

If you're interested either contact me or post below.

CKC have offered us a spot on their kit car stand -- free entry & stand space for kit & driver. £12 for passengers advance ticket.

Who is definitely coming down -- up or across??

Players so far are :-

Bob & Mo in Florin G832 SAA

Richard L & Anne GN13 GWK

WallerZ

Alan- Howightpet

Crazychris3

Dave & Jackie with a little help from their friends --- we have a tow rope -- you WILL be going to the show & Jackie knows a very nice man -- Alf Alert I think.

Will amend list as necessary-- just add names or P.M to me.

Just getting a feeling for an exchange visit to Bob`s.

Thinking about travelling down on Friday afternoon 10th July, camping over, a run out on Saturday camping over and then the run

back on Sunday.

We spoke about it briefly at the meeting last night and folk wanted me to put it up on here so they could check diaries etc.

We would find a non motorway route down so as not to be mind numbed by that particular route.

Wives and partners are encouraged to come along and you don`t have to live in Leics.

We originally spoke of 2 possible dates but Bob can`t do one of them.

Open to suggestions.

Just a heads up that this Show is on the weekend of 5/6 Sep (http://www.peterborough.gov.uk/leisure_and_culture/events_and_festivals/classic_and_vintage_vehicles.aspx). You have to pre-register at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/VehicleRegistration

Camping is available and also the option of having a Club Stand. Not sure if there will be enough interest to justify a stand though. And it is the weekend just before the end-of-season bash so I guess we will be busy getting ready for that.
