Cars on the Green 2010 25th April

Sunday 25th April, Thurston, Bury St Edmunds.

I know that some of you have already booked on-line for this show, but I have got 15 passes for a club stand safely sitting on my computer ready to print off.

Maybe we should start to get some numbers together for this one as I know the organisers are very tight on room for this show. It's only fair that we let them know if we have spare passes then they can allocate them to someone else.

So who wants one of my lovely 'club stand' passes ???

Ian,





I will be going.

Car will not start, battery problem!!

Ian

I have also booked for the show!

Andy

Please book the Vette in Ian.

The 88 and 47 rule.

Still 13 passes left then.

Won`t be at this one. Shame, as only down the road from me, will be going to Chatsworth House with tvrcc.

Those booked so far :

Myself : Corvette C5
Phil (Stig) : TVR Griff 400
Andy H : TVR of some type ! Maybe more than one, who knows.
Peter : Corvette Z16
Paul K : TVR Chimaera 500
Rob Smith : Corvette C3
Jim : Audi S6 Quattro

Hopefully a few more will join us or I will be returning a lot of passes.

Well it looks as if I will only need 5 of the 15 passes I arranged. I'll leave it another week of so before contacting the organiser.

It is noted that Rob is attending this event, I hope that his shorts are BANNED so that we can enjoy a day free from inclement weather !!!!!

Be good to see you Rob, long time no see.

The 88 and 47 rule.

That looks like a good meeting place prior to heading to the show. Map here.

I will post details round the group in about a weeks time, but would say to meet there at about 9.15 to leave at 9.30am. Thanks for sorting that out Paul.

Can I just reminder all attending, if you can't make the RV point (the Dog at Norton) for 9.15am please let me know as I will need to get your pass to you.

Well dispite a wet start, the weather finally got it's act together and I believe a good time was had by all.

Thanks to those who attended. Our little stand had a regular supply of visitors during the day, including one old guy who had a Yugo and thought it may be a future classic !!!

I understand from Peter that we may have tempted another couple to our next meeting so here's hoping. Certainly a very good mix of cars at the show, and a very good atmosphere from everyone I spoke to.

One final question : Phil where were you ????????

Haven't heard from you lately, have them aliens got you ?

Ian, I trust that you pointed the guy with the Yugo over to Mr Simpson`s stand. Just up his street

Anyway, this thread is no good without Pictures

Chatsworth was execellent with over 650 TVR`s attending. Weather was wet going up and wet comming back, but luckily sunshine at the show. So, the Sag go washed and polished twice yesterday

How many vehicles did Andy take in the end?

Andy didn't show. He had said to me that he was running out of time getting his 'fleet' ready for the Rushden event, and so may not make it. We ended up with myself and Peter with the Vettes, Paul and Sue with the Chimaera, Jim and Kim with their Audi and finally Chris (5mudge) with his new Suzuki Swift gti.

Mr Simpson couldn,t be asked to attend the show apparantely. Sorry no pictures from me, I didn't pick up my camera. Maybe one of the others managed to snap some.

Glad you had a good day at Chatsworth, it seems to get a bigger event each year. Are you attending Rushden next weekend ?

Hi Nigel

Didn't go! my vehicle plans for next weekend at Rushden took over!

Trying to get five vehicles ready for that has caused a few problems and I may only take four, the next three days will tell!

O! are you and Sue going to join us?

Andy

Unfortunately, we are going to Devon for a few days on saturday, so won`t be around.

You will soon be able to hold your own mini Chatsworth Andy

Looks like only myself, Andy and maybe Phil if he reappears then.

Hardly worth the bother !
