nick drop me a text

[BadDave]

I might pop long(if I've made decent progress on the trip down), as I'll be somewhere in the general area anyways that evening.

The E30 will be at home and I'll have the Alpina with me on this occasion.

Is the timings roughly the same as those on the link you've posted??

I usually get there around 6.30pm and its stacked full of people by then. Probably best to get there earlier if you can make it, check out everyone arriving, and grab a pint before the pub gets rammed!

this event starts around 4.30/5.00 if you get there early enough and have somthing worth showing you have the option to park in the show field at a small cost think its £2 maybe £3or get your £1 out and park in the sheep field would be great to get a few more zoners there

In that case, it will all depend on how speedy my progress is on the way down.
From where I'l be in Perthshire,the route planner is saying 7ish hrs to get to my hotel then a further 1hr to get to Ashby Folville,which means I'd most likely be late

[Rav335uk]

[e30shed]

Yep, plastic all the way. I even used two & have a spare in the glovebox.

Gotta love cableties, toolbox essential for shed owners

[Rav335uk]

~You do know that the ties will melt through

[pac1982]

I'm gonna give this one a miss its a bit to wet for me today, been out in the rain all morning dont wanna spend my evening in the rain as well.

I'll be at the next one providing the weather is better

[e30shed]

Weather in Northants not looking very appropriate to parking a rwd car in a field...

I may well have to bow out in a very girlie way for this one, after all my cableties might melt

[GemE30]

I wish my car was on the road, will see if fella's up for it though

What time does it normally finish?
