KruJoe Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Yay! I'm in, thank you BrownNova. I'd really like to do the usual car camping at The Shady Oak (CW6 9UE) on the Saturday night, preceded by a pub dinner and a couple pints there... There have been some mentions of it, but I've seen no list. [Edit:] I've just spoken to the pub, no tents this year (waterlogging and other reasons) so hard standing only. If you call your car a "camper" then that's ok. The £25 includes electric and access to new loos and showers. (Bring electric blanket and extension FTW!) 12 plots available. I'll phone up again mid week and book some slots in the field if anyone else fancies it. Names below please: Shady Oak Campers: 1. KruJoe 2.

chodweaver Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Ooh, bugger. This has crept up on me! Me and Keymaster had a plan to roll up in an 800 but as I ain't won one, it'll likely be the Vomit colour Corsa, of many takeaway deliveries... ...and last year's Cholmondoggedly.

We're probably going to be in Manchester on the Saturday, so this could work out well. Not sure I can persuade her to come to the show, but surely an overnight stop at a pub isn't a bad idea?

skattrd Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 This is just over a week away now, almost time to decide what car to bring. My currently working and legal motors are the "cheap jeep" 4l Cherokee and Merc C32. The Mercedes should* be slightly more economical, plus I've not managed a longish trip in it yet, so that might the vehicle of choice. Unless I get he Umm fixed next week (there's virtually no chance of that happening) … although I will nudge my tame mechanic about it tomorrow.

brownnova Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hokily dokily, the first batch of tickets are on their way to their lucky* recipients. I’ve ordered the top up batch from Classic Shows and have the envelopes ready to stuff for when they arrive hopefully on Saturday. Keep an eye on your doormats/postbox/butler’s post tray! Thanks to everybody for paying so promptly! Skizzer, Heidel_Kakao and The Moog 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumbler Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Sorry about our delay in paying, a miscommunication between myself and Brother Fumbler made him think everything was sorted and the tickets were in the mail. Anyway, all is sorted now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clayts450 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I think it'll have to be names in a hat for me, on the day, and be done with it. Just hope the 214 doesn't 'win'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope the 214 doesn't 'win'... You could always leave that one out. ? I've got a similar problem. When I initially said yes I only had the Rover that I could take but now I've got the 205, Fiesta and tomorrow's new arrival to choose from.

RobT Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I think I'll bring the 11. It's 180 miles each way so I'll need to leave around 5am. Might sound painful but I don't mind an early start, plus it saves overnight accommodation costs because I'm a mingebag. skattrd, Skizzer and brownnova 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I currently only have the Volvo. However I'm hoping to buy a car over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skizzer Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Probably either XJ-S or E30 for me, most likely. Accord or FE Victor are also possibilities. It’s 3.5 hours from me, but on some nice roads. What time are we supposed to get there? The website says the exhibitor tickets are valid until 11, but I assume a bit earlier than that to get parked up. Is 10am acceptable to rock up? skattrd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownnova Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 On the gate tickets are £9. I think I’ve allocated all the tickets I have ordered, but if there’s one spare once I’ve sent them all I’ll PM you. (Depends how shite my maths is...)

brownnova Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 All 42 tickets have now been dispatched! With the remaining few popped in the post today (although I didn’t get them till after my local box was collected, so they won’t now go til Tuesday annoyingly). One was even delivered personally in what has now become a Chumley tradition for me. Look out for them in the post people... you can’t miss them.
