We are now getting close to our second National Kit Car Show of the year, at the Newark Showground (NG24 2NY) in 2 weeks time.   I am sure we can beat last years' attendance (2 cars on the Saturday ) but hopefully the weather will be a bit kinder to us this year.   See https://newarkkitcarfestival.co.uk/ for full details.

The Club Stand is in the usual place (see below) so let's see if we can fill it this year.   Hope to see many of you there.

Hi everyone.

Well August was one of the best months for some time.   As usual we lost a few, but this time it was only 4 non-renewals (Technically it was 6, but 2 of them are long-term members who I assume have just forgotten to renew).   But we gained 9 new members.   Here they are (as usual it's Username (and first name if not obvious), Location and Area Sec).   Welcome to all of them:

Victory Wheeler's 10th Hayling Sunset

A Chill out day for all things Custom, Rod, Rat, Muscle, Chopped and bobbed.

Sunday, 6th October 2024 from 10am

Hayling Island, PO11 0AG

Had an incredible time at yet another car meet! The laid-back vibe was perfect, with a diverse range of vehicles on display, from classics to modern builds.
 

The event also delivered on food, drinks, and music, creating a great atmosphere all around. But the real highlight was connecting with like-minded car enthusiasts.
 

If you’re into cars and good company, this is a must-attend event. Highly recommended!

Back from a nice day at the Stamford Car Show.   Weather was good so it was very busy and there were plenty of interesting cars on show.   We parked in our usual pleasant spot next to the river, although we found out later we were in the wrong place as they had redesigned the field layout but not told anyone    No problem though as no-one seemed to care.

Our regular monthly meeting at the Church Mouse Chester Moor DH23RJ from 7pm. All welcome, let's continue the upward trend in numbers, so good to see as many attending.

Next Wednesday 28th 6pm onwards, Malt Shovel Pub, Coventry Road, Nr Stonebridge, Coventry, CV7 7HL.

Generally they're trying to kick us out just after 930pm so if you're coming, don't leave it too late. Also, if you want to eat, book beforehand as they don't normally let people just rock up and eat.

Entrance to the pub car park is off the A452 Chester Road heading North 50 yards from the island.

Everyone welcome. For the first time in a long time, I won't be there as I'm on holiday so see you either at the next meet in September or on the Wales run-out which is posted elsewhere on the forum.

I’ve just posted out the latest edition of the magazine to all those members that agreed to an electronic delivery.   If anyone who opted for that route has not received the magazine please let me know (after you have checked your spam folder )

Been a bit quiet for the first 2 weeks for various reasons (including my car's MOT) so time to get out in this glorious weather.    Bit of a late call but we are going to have a drive out to Foxton Locks (LE16 7RA), 12:00 tomorrow (Monday 19th) for a picnic lunch.    All are welcome.

For those who haven't seen them the 'staircase' is a dramatic spectacle, and the site of the original 'inclined plane' which preceded the locks is also particulaly interesting.

Anyone fancy joining us, let me know.
