Chodmolestedly - 20th September Chumley Castle... bad news folks.... ?

[brownnova]

With the advent of this pesky virus I for one have been missing things such as car shows, Cannock chod-fests and random meet ups.

Employing my crystal ball I’m hoping that maybe, just maybe, Chumley will be on as the date is mid September. If kids can go back ‘safely’ to a school full of kids then I’m sure an outdoor car show will be fine. Fingers crossed.

For the new and uninitiated, Chumley Castle car show is a staple of the AS calendar where we bring down the tone of a proper car show by entering rusty Renault 4s, deteriorating Dacias and crumbling Cadillacs (being literally pushed) into the show ring.  The commentator makes for hilarious listening, although we’re usually placed so far away from the ring we can’t hear him.

 Any way who’s in for Chumley this year... if it goes ahead? 

 

[clayts450]

Yes please, Alex.

The BL Day looks to be going ahead in Gaydon in September too, so I'd be surprised if Chod'ley didn't too

[Wack]

I've turned up for this before so I'm sure I can make it again

[brownnova]

Some pics of last year to whet appetites.... 

[brownnova]

Ok a list then! I’ll check out the tickets as there is interest. 
 

1. Brownnova 
2. Clayts.  
3. Wack

[loserone]

Tentative yes please.  

[Fumbler]

Tentative yes, might be able to go up by train to have a look around I suppose.

HELL YEAH

[eifion]

Yes, please! This is always a good day out.

[Ghosty]

Most certainly in. 

[beko1987]

I'll say probably, and check later

[DoctorRetro]

Tentative yes from me too, as long as the R8 of death isn't too embarrassing for you all to be seen near... 

[loserone]

If I do it, I'll be alone and camping, because we'll just be back from France and won't be able to stay at my uncle's the night before

 

I will be in a 205 though

[Cord Fourteener]

I could probably manage this

[BL Bloke]

I enjoyed it last year so you can put me down as a yes.

[4wheeledstool]

I seem to partake every 2 years - which means I'm due to go again this year.

If it Runs . Why not 

[sporty-shite]

Yep. I'm in as usual. Will probably be in a dull car, though. 

[Floatylight]

I'm in!

@Smoll Floatylight and I had a brilliant idea of entering the ring with a full row of cars and all diving out simultaneously to mock buff them with microfiber cloths..

It's a yes from me.

 

[chodweaver]

It'd be rude not to.

One ticket for me please.

Possible convoy?

[Sunny Jim]

Yes please. I'd be up for this.

[eddyramrod]

It's 130 miles each way for me.  I like this show, it's a lovely place and you do get a splendid cross-section of cars.  Last time I went, Huggy memorably required a push (thank you everyone) but that shouldn't happen again.  BUT... even if Huggy is going to be fit this time, I don't think I'm up to it.  Best count me out, sorry.

[catsinthewelder]

If we can't have the crumbling Cadiliac then I should probably try and get you the deteriorated Dacia as I'm definitely up for it.

[loserone]

Is there a good car-sleeping spot nearby? Does anyone have a (quiet) bit of grass I could bivvy bag in?

[dollywobbler]

Put me down as a probable.

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Put me down for a ticket. Don't know if I can get the day off yet but will certainly try. 
 

ah duck, never mind

[Iamgroot]

If it's on, I'm in, better sort the handbrake on the second best 405 and Chuck it in for an MOT before that, something I'm failing terribly at at the moment.
