Would anyone be interested in getting together at my place next year,

I have a runway on the farm and it could easily accomadate around 20 vehicles, you can drive straight onto it , its well mown and kept really nice.

If people are happy to contribute, I will put on a hog roast, camping space is available, toilets are also close.

We can get one of our steam engines out , put the trailer on and go down the local with a few of you on the back, anyhow just an idea at the moment.

If anyone is keen to come along, drink, eat and talk cars , get a lift to the pub and back then I will give it some thought..

Thanks

Craig

As previously discussed, October is when we do our annual pilgrimage to the Corby Glen Sheep Fair (https://www.sheepfair.co.uk/), It is from 10:00-16:00 on Sunday 8 October but you can arrive whenever you want and leave whenever you want. I will probably position my car about 09:30 to book some slots.

I think most of you have been before, but as a reminder, we will be parking by the war memorial at the Western edge of the village (Shown in red). If you are coming in from the A1 then as you enter the village, go past Tanners Lane and then take the left fork just after the funfair. The dropped kerb is just before the first house as shown in blue on the picture.

If you are coming from the Bourne direction then drive past the cars and then turn 180 degs just before the funfair.

So far I have:

1. Me

2. Mick & Stella

3. Kerry & Sharon

4. Nigel & Helen

5. Pete (Swan)

6. Derek & Mo

7.

Anyone else ?

All subject to weather of course, although I will do my best. (I gather I excelled at the Stamford Show, even though I wasn't there )

I'm planning a run out on Saturday 14th October 2017 for anyone brave enough to still have their car on the road. Rough details are a drive up in the morning, an overnight stay somewhere around Corwen then some more driving Sunday before returning home.

Corwen is a well located and the accommodation should be a bit cheaper than in Llangollen. A couple of options are the Crown Hotel and the Owen Glyndwr, both of which I've stayed in though not for a while. Book your accommodation early to avoid disappointment.

Let me know if interested then pack for wet weather and at least you'll be prepared.

Hi all,

Many thanks to all that made this years end of season bash a success! and many thanks to all that attended and i hope you all enjoyed the weekend.

This was my first event for the club and i have learnt a lot from it, i was a bit unsure how well the event was received but after speaking with some of you feed back has been good.

That said i welcome all feedback good or bad and any recommendations on where we can improve the event.

I would also like some input from people as to what they want out of the event such as

Do you like the format or would you prefer just a camping weekend?

Did we need a live band?

Did we need the disco on Friday night?

Was the beer raffle a good idea? (seemed to be!)

Do we need two inflatables (Large one did not appear to be used much)?

keeping event outside and having hall as backup VS keeping the same format.

thoughts on catering etc.

I would like you to email me Directly on Events@rhocar.org rather than posting on the forum as this will allow me to look at each persons comments individually.

This is your event and we can only meet expectation if you tell us what you would like.

If you would like to contribute to the event also email me! Maybe you play in a band or know a good band or have a guitar and would like to do some acoustic stuff or would like to put up a stall or just have some idea's of fun things we can add please also drop me an email.

This years event was a big success with more and more people attending and i want to make next year an even bigger success.

Many thanks

Keith Kelly
