Very busy this month, so the only Sunday free for us is the 10th -- this coming Sunday!!!

Suggest we meet at "The Silver Plough" Pitton. Good pub meals in pleasant country-side. Can do a little run if required before/after lunch.

OR you may wish for another date or venue -- please shout -- happy to promote any suggestions.

Hi all

Unfortunately it looks like this might have to be a self-help month. I am not back from holiday till late on the 10th so can't do anything for that weekend. The following weekend is the Leicestershire BBQ and run out and I am hoping to go to that. See http://www.rhocar.org/index.php?showtopic=44134.

My daughter is getting married on the 24th and I suspect I might get in trouble if I do anything on that weekend But remember 'Gearheads on the Ground' is on that Sunday at the Newark Showground at 13:00 and that is always worth a visit.

So that only leaves 30th/31st and I will revisit that during the prior week to see if the weather warrants a pub run/picnic.

Don't forget the Stamford Car Show is next month on the 28th. I see from their page that registration has stopped as they have the maximum number of cars. But if anyone has a ticket and they are not going to use it then please pass it on and don't waste it.

Big car event this weekend if anybody was interested.

This event was posted by Mark Little previously.

Cumbria Classic show at Dalemain organised by Wigton Motor club

http://www.wigtonmc.co.uk/ccw/index.php

As we now can't get into the Tatton show this august, I have just been in touch with the organisors for this event and they still have club stands available and seemed to be very receptive to having us there.

I'm prepared to book a club stand if people would like to attend this event. There is no minimum number required to have a club stand, but the more we can get the better. Maximum number is 50.

The Rose and Thistle run is too expensive at £60

So here's the deal :-

Entry to the show = £3 per car

Camping = £5 per night per tent/unit

You can have a full weekend for £13

Or just Saturday night and the show for £8

I'm proposing, arrive Friday evening and camp, run out Saturday around Cumbria/north Yorkshie/north pennines or all 3. Camp Saturday night and attend the show on the sunday. Anyone just wanting to come Saturday for the run or sunday for the show are also welcome.

If you're up for it add your name to this thread by 18th July so I can see if enough interest and I'll make a list.

As we have to pay for this up front, I'll then require your payment by the 22nd July either by paypal or cheque.

Ill send the entry form off on the 22nd as the closing date is August 5th I want to ensure we get our entry in enough time.

See you there.

Who's Going to the Church Mouse Next Wed.29th June. We need a good turn out to mark the passing of our beloved leaders noble steed. It has gone to a better place (Germany actually) where it will be hopefully restored to its former power and be driven in the manner it was intended. So lets have a good turnout to give Red7's Robin Hood a send off it deserves.

Hope to see you all atThe Church Mouse, Waldridge, Chester-le-Street. DH2 3RJ at 7-30

Just seen this come up...might be worth a shout if anyones interested.

Looks like a decent show, plenty of cars of all types.

You can show your car off (they ask for a small donation), Adults £5, Children £3 and family ticket £15. I'm not sure if showing you car means you don't pay the fiver though?
