Hi all, this months meet was a poor turn-out due in the main to the heavy showers I suppose.

NEXT month it is proposed that we meet on the week-end of 8/9th April at a pub in the area of Basingstoke.

Please pen your thoughts, which day -- is this area suitable/convenient for you -- what would you like arranged -- visit somewhere/meet & drive before/after lunch.

One suggestion so far ( & the only one ) is to centre the meet on POPHAM AIRFIELD , as always it's you that make the club, so please offer your views.

The next Leicestershire area meeting will be at THE GATE HANGS WELL public house

Lewin Bridge, Fosse Way, Syston, Leicestershire LE7 1NH
0116 260 9242

Starting at around 7.30pm onwards. (8 for me)

I would like to try to set a date for a 2 day trip to the Ponderosa cafe on the horseshoe pass,

Derek as kindly given me the heads up for this show, https://www.peterborough.gov.uk/residents/leisure-and-culture/classic-and-vintage-vehicle-show/

You can register online for one or both days.

Both Derek and myself have registered.

Sorry it's been quiet for the last few weeks but I was in hospital having an operation. Almost back to normal now, certainly well enough to drive the Superspec. Looking at the weather, this Sunday (26th) is not looking too bad so if the rain holds off I think I will potter along and take a picnic lunch to the Newark Autojumble Show - http://www.newarkautojumble.co.uk (Does what it says on the tin, lots of stalls, both amateur and professional, for car-related 'bits')

For those not familiar with this monthly event, it is held at the Newark Showground (NG24 2NY). Entrance fee is £7/head (Under 12s free) and £5 if you come in a kit car (+£7 for a passenger) So it's cheaper than a pub lunch

There are 2 entrances, one for tintops and one for classic/unusual/kit cars. They are shown on the attached map (From past experience, if it is busy it is quicker and easier to come in from the South to the East of the Showground rather than the via the A46 even if you are in a tintop)

I'll probably aim to get there about 11:00 if anyone fancies a day out. I'll make a final decision on Saturday and post it here.
