Riding on the success of our stand at Cholmondeley, retrogeezer was asking me if I'd mind organising something similar for Capesthorne Hall. It runs between May 30 (Sunday) and May 31 (Bank Holiday Monday).Due to the unique way in which our rotas are composed I don't think I can do either day. I am however more than happy to send tickets out. If people can come to an agreement on which day they'd like to do, I'll phone Mr. Greenwood up. The tickets for classic car owners (pre 1995) are £3 each, but we have to get in 9 days before the event is due to kick off.The 30th is a Classic Car Show and a Jaguar Day, and the BHM incorporates American Cars as well. So it's up to you chaps. Vote above. I've more chance of getting BHM off as there's no way in hell work will give me a Sunday off if I'm rota'd in.

Either day is fine with me.

I didn't realise it was a 2 day thing. Monday would prob be more interesting, I saw the jags last year and they were nothing special.

No-can-do on either for me, unfortunately. Sporty holiday begins this Saturday, and we're only back the following Sunday. Monday will be out, cos I'll probably be a bit knackered from the drive home. :cry:

Don't think I can do this either :( Definately going to be working bank hol Monday which is a bit of a pisser.

Posted

Not yet, and now I have to go to work.

Posted

Don't know. If I can make it, I'll try and bring one SD1 one day, and the other the next and see if anyone notices.Thing is, I'm supposedly going to Czech that weekend.

Jon, my mate with the camper is up for the Monday too....is this show a go-er?

Yes, it is!Sorry I disappeared for a few days. I've been working lates and it's really messed with my brain. How many tickets do we want? I'll try and give A_GREENWOOD a bell on Monday about it.

It is still up in the air as to whether I'm going to Czech that weekend. If I'm not, I'll come along both days if A: The weather is good, B: I'm not going to be on my own there!C: The SD1s are working.

How can you possibly come in the SD 1 Pete? I had a wank under your back axle last night and it's only a 3.5. You should be ashamed.

 

I don't mind divvying the tickets out again chaps - but please bear in mind that my glorious employer - who I am not discussing again for as long as I can - does not recognise Bank Holidays as a day off per se. Unless you're a lying sack of shit with a data entry job. Then you can have them all and a giftwrapped Mars bar to shove into your suppurating jowly visage.

 

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

I do hope you typed that with a welsh accent, and a Kenny Rogers beard.

As a matter of fact, I did. I will not do my Scouse impression within earshot again for fear of being killed. Although as penance I can offer batteries.

hey Jon, did you manage to speak to AG??? Only I think all tickets have to be booked with 9 days clear to the show or something?

Posted

I'm still only 50/50, but I'll let you know as soon as I work out flight logistics. If getting to Czech over that weekend is too much of a ball-ache, I'll go to Capesthorne.

Posted

Gonna book *10* for BHM on the off chance that I can somehow come.

Posted

Any Joy with AG Jon?

Rang up and ordered 10 today. They should be with me by early next week.

 

Can everyone who wants one PM me their address? I'm going to have to post them out because there's a good chance I won't be allowed the time off work. The tickets are £3 and the cash needs to be gifted to [email protected]

Nice one Jon, cheers for sorting this one out.Have PM'd you and will send funds shortly.RG

You know you say "pre 1995 cars" Is it going to be like Chromoley (or how ever it is spelt) and there are spatters of newer cars amongst Sherpa coupes.

I imagine so. But I don't know for definite.

Yeh, it's a very similar show to Chumley (Cholmondely!) but there were quite a few different motors there last year to the chumley show. It's another nice location too (as long as the weather is o.k!)
