August Lincolnshire Meeting

[alanrichey]

Hi all

 

I gather there were 10 people and 7 cars at the July meeting at the Muskham Ferry and the weather was great (again ). That sounds like a perfect number, enough cars to look good and few enough people so you could talk to everyone. Pity I missed it. Thanks to all who supported it and to the Notts team for their additional support.

 

As for August, I wasn't going to organise a meeting as I am not back till the 22nd and we have Donington at the end of the month. But I just realised that the Stamford Car Show is on the 24th. Pete Lee and I have decided to go there, and anyone else is welcome to join us. So we will call that the nominal 'August' meeting

 

If you are interested you will need to register at http://www.stamfordr...vents/car-show/ it's nominally free but they suggest a £5 donation to charity at the entrance.

 

Closer to the date we can arrange to meet up somewhere so we arrive in convoy.

 

Please let me know if you wish to come with us.

 

Cheers

 

Al

We are at Cadwell all weekend watching the "British Super Bikes" , going in on Friday and staying until the Tuesday, but if you can lay on the weather please we will borrow a little bit of it.

I will be there. Been twice before. Its a great gathering of classics, modified, kits, custom, American etc.

I have attempted to register, will have to see if it went through.

Richard said he only just made the deadline, but I can't find any date on their website ? Hope you get in, will arrange a meeting point next week.

[Kerry]

Could not register because it was full. Maybe next year

[alanrichey]

Pity. sorry, didn't realise there was a cut-off date. See you at Donington.

A good day at the Stamford Car Show. Only 3 of us beat the deadline but it was nice to see Derek there as well, even if he was banished to the car park

 

Pete and Richard cars both looked good, making mine look decidedly scruffy (in my defence I only got from the USA 36hrs before the show).

 

 

 

What made it worse for me was I was put between an immaculate Corvette and an equally immaculate 1936 Auburn Boat Tail Speeder (probably the most photographed car at the Show) . So I will be appearing in lots of photos but in the background

 

 

 

 

Have to get the polish out for the next one

[Kerry]

Gutted I could not get a ticket, wasted a good day out.

There is a classic car meeting a Peterborough on 13th@14th, could be one to go for, I will register just in case.

It was a great show, a lot of cars I had never seen before. One for the diary next year.

 

The Lancaster's stole the show for me.

[Guest Richard7]

Excellent photos Al. Your run of fantastic weather is amazing. This is the third Stamford car show I have been to, and all have been fantastic. That Rolls Royce Silver Shadow was amazing too.
