      A fair suggestion. Was looking into the Malverns anyway.

      However, the aim of the Annual Camping Meet is that it is a dedicated S2 meet, so I will rule out the first weekend in July (as AndyP has also pointed out that it is the FoS that weekend too).

      Attendance at other events is in addition to this, and if someone would like to organise another get together at the BVF than that sounds cracking.

      Will look into your suggestion Gazza, ta.

          Unfortunately Wickstead only has provision for caravans and campers, not tents. I had already looked into it as thought it a good location too. Brings back childhood memories. You can also camp at Drayton Manor but they won't take any groups bigger then 3 tents. It's finding a site that accepts groups that is the biggest hurdle.

          Cheers, I spent most of yesterday trawling that site, it's useful as some of the reviews are quite enlightening.

            Our reputation obviously precedes us!

            Thanks for taking the time to organise this one. I am hoping we will be able to come along this year, depending on venue and timings...

              people expect us to be a saxo brigade with midnight RPM antics and cheesy dance on subs thats the issue.

              i plan to have a weekend at the unicorn this year anyway. next time i do an overnight stay at our warehouse ill pop over to the unicorn and give you the lowdown.

              is it the wrong side of the midlands?

                I searched EVERY page and unless I have suddenly changed my name to Mr Magoo, the date is only listed on the Links page! - That's the page where they are supposed to link to other stuff, not the only page where they should mention the show date - Sheesh!

                Also, it is nearer to the west country than I typically like to venture - after all, that's Orificer Casey territory that is


                You need to get out more m'laddo

                Cheers n jeers

                Si
                Sadly Its the best organised show of the year.........

                  I agree but every time i try to its just me who turns up....:mischeif: Like you say fos weekend is probably the problem... But yeah would love to actually make it to one of these as it usually clashes with somnething... I will say i admire you doing this every year.

                    Rubbish, it is quite obviously for drinking 3 litres of red wine and then spending the next 3 hours doing micro press-ups Mallard duck stylie

                          Why not look for somewhere local to Wicksteed, and tie it in with the Audi in the park show on the Sunday?

                              The trouble I only got one wing and 3/4 of a bonnet polished. You've been promising me that you'll do the rest ever since but I just can't afford that much in alcohol
