Apologies to the Masses, this has been on my radar for ages and have had several abortive attempts to come up with something fresh that would appeal and that is within the main part of 'the patch'......Suffice to say that i couldnt find anything better than something we've done before.....

Sooooo.
3rd Sep the gathering will be at Bentley Wildfowl, down nr Uckfield ( will put details in a post nearer the time).
For those that haven't been along to a 'gathering', this is a chance to dust off your motor and meet a number of like minded folks from within the Club.
We normally kick off with 'Brekkie' at around 09.00, so that stragglers can rock up on the ownsome, or join in with a pre-arranged drive to brekkie. After something unhealthy we drive pretty much 'en-masse' to Bentley where we can wander, chew the fat and talk about anything from carbs ( engine type not diet) to the difference between sweetcorn and maize. Partners/other halfs welcome. At Bentley we get to park on the lawn infront of the main building and no doubt our cars will be the star attraction for 'joe public'.

We have a reduced group rate of £6.50 per person.

Details about brekkie venue etc will follow much nearer the time, but for now i need a show of hands.....and please, do check your diaries and commit :D
In the past we've had both ends of the spectrum - where we've had 25 names down and about 40 have turned up or 40 names and 25 turn up!
Brekkie isn't compulsory, but kind of 'makes it' a bit as we all then arrive pretty much together, which is key as they don't want to keep opening the gate to allow access to the lawn area.

Hello All,

I'm hoping to become a kit owner very soon, but currently it is still very much in the planning stage. I would be very grateful for the opportunity to meet you and your cars if that is an option? I live to the east of Brighton, so close to this outing. I can either meet you there or blag a ride if someone is passing?

Thanks!

Hi sounds like a great plan. :D I will be at breakfast, hopefully in the kit if it is fixed (it should be) and will have an empty seat; all be it very tight in the the car. You are more than welcome if you do not get a better offer and can fit :? :D

As it is a show, I was thinking about creating a factsheet about my car to stick on the windscreen, just for those 10 questions people are always asking me (how much? How long? What engine? Etc.. ) .

Is this a done thing? Anyone else? Or will this be a cause for much merriment, along with my driving gloves? :)

@Neil.... yep a fact sheet is a good idea, something that many of us have done in the past...sometimes we need a fresh face to prompt us or make suggestions.
( folks, on any thread where there are names etc, pls copy those into your own post so that info doesn't get lost).
