It's that time of the year again when we make our plans to attend Barbon Hill Climb. Last year we camped in Dent a short drive from the Hill Climb Venue. This year I'm investigating hiring a cottage or large caravan as well as the camping option.

A short description of Dent: A very small pretty village with three pubs one shop and a restauraunt populated by friendly local people.

We will set off from the North East on Friday night, the hill climb is on Saturday afternoon and make our way back to the North East on Sunday.

If anyone out there is interested in coming along please drop me a PM.

Here is the link to the National hill climb calendar.

We have an event coming up on MAY 14th, so keep those cars roadworthy and make a date for the

SPRING TREASURE HUNT .

This is a day out for everyone.

Created by Alan Saunders specifically for this Thames Valley Hoods day out, the hunt is for a collection of witty and criptic clues all with a motoring theme for you to spot and collect along a prescribed country drive, for which you will be given course notes on arrival at the start venue.

At set intervals, and not against the clock ! , you will set off along the route collecting and noting down your answers.

There is a prize for the most correct observations when the scores are totted up at the finish venue ( The Pub with No Name ).

A small entry fee per car full will pay for the prize.

Refreshments available at the start and finish venues.

Bring any car, and as many occupants as you wish. I get a feeling those with people carriers will have an advantage of more eyes and ideas flowing.

( Grandma's are pretty handy with the criptic stuff , must be all the crosswords etc. )

Alan has put all his notes and locations on his website for you to view , bar of course the clues, which you will have to wait for on the day.

You can view them here......... www.promec-services.co.uk/hoods/paperchase.htm

I hope lots of you can make this a really good event , and our thanks should go to Alan who has been concocting this jaunt solely for your enjoyment, for some time now.

Please let me know by return email, to give us some idea of numbers .

Any questions, please let me know.

Thanks.

See you soon

John
