North West Meet-Ups/Events???

[Darrell]

Hi All,

looks like a dry day tomorrow (Sunday 24th March) maybe a bit chilly!!!

I am planning on having a drive out in the morning, only if sun shining and no chance of rain (both Alexa and the BBC say no rain, they have been known to be wrong before, lol)

Meet a Tickled Trout 1030am, out to Gisburn on the A59, A682, A65 brew at Goat gap cafe?, A687, A683, Quernmore, A6 south to the snack bar by Fowler Hill Lane - about 100 miles

Any one else?

Family birthday precludes attendance.

Everyone else have a good trip.

[GambolGold]

Sounds good. Sorry I have prior commitments too.

Hi All, this Sunday sees the car meet at Charity Farm, Wrightington. I won’t be there am away with family, if any of you attend take some pictures especially of your car(s) amongst all the others. Details in the event calendar. Fingers crossed for a dry day, have fun everyone. 

[GambolGold]

Ah, no. I won be able to go to that one -but thanks for pointing that out.

[IanS]

Forcast of 40+MPH winds and rain, unless this changes I wont be going this time.

Hi All, thinking ahead, who is thinking of taking the trip down to the national kit car show in Malvern in June?

Last year a group of us met in Warrington (can't remember the car park we met in!) and Ian did the best job ever and led the convoy directly to the venue, same again this year Ian?  Some camped overnight, but all in all a fab time was had.

I am planning on making the trip but can only make the Saturday, setting of early 'ish, getting there viewing stands and cars, having a chat/ catching up and setting of back about 5pm 'ish.

Let's hope for dry weather.

who's got it in their diary?

Hi Darrell, I'll be there, all being well.  Probably only be able to make it for one day myself - Saturday is favourite at the moment.

I'm guessing you'll be coming past me (from a global point of view) so I might tag along with you if we're going on the same day.

All being well I am happy to lead down the A49 again.

Meeting at the Cat & Lion pub just north of junction 10 M56. Time to be arranged.

I will probably camp over.
