Not many takers so far..... I'll certainly be going for the event itself

Depending on numbers, we may be able to secure Popham... TBC

Gijs, shame you can't make it - if not, come to Lambourn instead

Himley Hall, Himley Hall :?: :?: :!: :!: P'tooey :!: I can't find it on the calendar...... :?: Only joking.... :lol:

I hear it is a great event.... with loads of Minis....

On the other hand, in 2012, Basingstoke attracted 12 Mokes.... and the variety of classic cars was astounding, added to that are loads of trade stands and attractions.

Worth a consideration if you,re below Watford :lol:

Oh well.... as I sit here, contemplating the last dram for the eve.... no takers, which is a surprise... ended up being quite nice weather in the end :roll:

We have missed this event for the last 2 years. Next year we should get back out there and 'DO IT!' Looking for a volunteer to organise this one.........
