Afternoon folks,

So far I've booked in for the Audlem transport festival. It incorporates a brief road run, so makes it more interesting than some "park and chat" meets.

Are you booked in for anything yet, or is it a little too early still?

RJ

I have already booked the Roadster into the National events for both Singer Clubs. One is in North Wales the other in Grantham.
By co-incidence, I have just received e-mails with entry forms for the events at Lauder and Glamis which are both major Scottish events.
I am organizing the event run by Ayrshire Classics Car Club at Kilmarnock in May. Not quite in the same league as Lauder or Glamis but a sizeable event. Details of this will be published in the Scottish Yearbook shortly but if any Scottish members are interested just send me a PM.

It's summer in this global backwater, of course (though you wouldn't think so to go by the weather), and we have the annual Galaxy of Cars event coming up on the first weekend in February. It's a fund-raising event for charity organised by the Lions, supported by most local car clubs. A relaxing and social day out, and a chance to catch up with those one otherwise would lose contact with.

Prescott hill climb in June so far. But press passes applied for Le Mans and the Classic as well.

Shows - no, not my thing. Entries already in for two local charity drives in the summer and I'm also organising a Somme Battlefield Tour for September and doing a tour of Scotland in May finishing with a 'B-road Jogle', just for the hell of it.

No not here - never do. If there's a show on a given day I'll turn up, if they let me in all well and good if not I go for a drive. To be honest I don't like 'formal shows' at all, if I can't turn up when I like and leave when I like I tend not to bother.

I've also booked in for Audlem this year. Missed it last year (having been the year before) because we had a 100th Birthday Party for the steamer.

I've also booked into the Market Drayton transport festival in August. Its only 100yards from my house!.

Both Austins going to both events I hope.

Im also going to the Amerton Railway gala, which is in June with the Marshall.

I've put my name on our club list for the two Tatton Park shows, have a form for Llangollen Classic Transport Weekend, and the Andrew Greenwood form for Cholmondeley among others. I should stop calling it that, though, as Andrew isn't really running it now.

Not booked into any shows this year ...yet. I am hoping to finish my lorry at some point so will look into some late bookings locally.

July 2nd and 3rd. I don't have an email address, the form has to be posted. If you want to PM me with an email address I'll forward a PDF of the form.

I might go to a couple of the local country fairs but I find too much standing about boasting about how much cars or the repairs cost at most car shows and club meetings. I tend to use my cars because I enjoy them not to show off to other people.
