the tickets will get you in for 8 or 10 pounds depending on if you have a passenger or not

1st come 1st served

Once again folks, its time for our annual BBQ on our patch ( Nick thinks its called Hampshire )

Date is set for Friday/Sat/Sunday the 26/27/28th June & format will be similar to the previous 5 years.

Arrive when-ever on Friday ( if you can ) pitch camp -- pub meal in evening -- back home for drinks & natter around the fire.

Saturday - several tours round local villages with guest passengers -- cold buffet lunch ( veggies too ) -- make something from rubbish & sail/float/fly your creation.

Saturday evening BBQ for all plus music , drinks & natter.

Sunday - breakfast for all cooked on the coals outside -- wander round in circles -- pack up & go home when-ever.

You provide the alcohol -- we provide the food ( with help from our friends )

SUNSHINE has been booked -- don't let it go to waste.

Very busy month for us --- we only have Tuesday the 12th & 19th open for an evening meet & no week-ends at all that are not already filled. Sorry.

If any other members of our band would like to suggest & run a meet please shout.

Is anybody in the Midlands going to this event?

If the weather is kind, then it could be a good day out on Saturday and the the hosts have offered a select area to show off the cars.

But this looks a very small (new) charity event on the 16th May.

GBS have invited our members to their open day on Saturday 6th June between 10am - 3pm at the GBS factory Maun Way, Broughton, Ollerton, Nottinghamshire. NG22 9ZD.

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.

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

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

which is on the right a short distance along the A67 (Airport road ) from the junction with the A66 Darlington ring road.

Hope to see you there.
