Went last year and I expect we will pop along this year for an hour or so if its nice out.
Lots of good old cars there last time. Worth the effort 

[Moleman]

Sunday is good for me. 

[Grin-a-lot]

I should be able to get out on day release - can see how much of a difference my new gearbox makes!

[YellaBelly]

I take it you're no longer running a dragster 2-speed box then Darren?

[Grin-a-lot]

Sure not, got all gears operational and once I've fitted the extension plate this weekend I'll be able to use them all without destroying my knuckles on my dashboard!

[YellaBelly]

Nice one!

Why is the show at the end of March though? I'm not taking the car off SORN until 1 Apr

Why don't you order the tax on-line and if your stopped tell them its in the post......oh, is there 31 days in March officer? lol 

[YellaBelly]

Good idea mate, but my luck (or lack of it) is the reason I don't do the lottery

[Jasperpilchards]

Thinking of going if weathers nice although wont be taxing the Dax until April  maybe may depending on weather as think prob get more nice days late year rather than early

[Moleman]

I'm definitely going on sunday. anyone up for a convoy to weston?  Hopefully to get there for 11.

A site meeting took place today, Monday 25th March at Weston Park to consider the ground conditions and viability of the event taking place over the Easter Weekend following the heavy snowfall this weekend. Unfortunately we hafe to announce that as the grounds were totally covered in snow and the long range forecaste for the area is not really showing any improvement to dry out the very wet grounds, the event is to be CANCELLED for the Easter Weekend.

I will meet you there as I don't want to make a total commitment as my attendance will be weather dependant.
I will probably bring my crap*y little three wheeler.

[Moleman]

I will be heading to get there for about 10.30 on sunday. 

[benchmark51]

[Hairy Santa]

say around 9.15am

put your name on here if this is OK

[Moleman]

I will be there at 9.15 mate. see you there. 

[benchmark51]

Ok, count me in

[Dixie]

Dont forget the clocks go forward tonight.

See you all at the show.

[The Great Redmondo]

Chaps, I'll meet you there at 0915. Not absolutely sure where 'there' is so if all else fails, carry on without me and I'll see you down there.

Paul

[Hairy Santa]

if you come down the road on the opposite side of the river to the SS Great Britian towards Hotwells bear left at the end and keep on the left you will cross a small bridge, bear round to the right once over the bridge and the road rapps itself around the cafe, it is actually under the road - cant miss it 

[paintman]

Dixie and myself will be there at approximately 10.30-11.00......save us a pitch please.

[Moleman]

The road is called Bronswiwick pl. just off Merchants rd. (which is the bridge) next to the Nova Scotia pub. The lockside is still marked on goggle maps.
So see you at 9.15 which is really 8.15 on a sunday morning. 

[fullpint]

We plan on leaving here (Rudloe) around 1030 after ones done the dog.. Hopefully will be a WSM before noon 

[peterw]
