I would normally go to this - it's a great show in lovely surroundings. But wife and I have just booked a late deal week in Rhodes, so this will be the first time I've missed it in years. I hope one of you gets selected for the arena. I don't remember seeing 75/ZTs displayed there previously, so it would be nice to hear they made a mark!

I’m down to take the mini with the local mini club, it’s usually a good show.

Hi Dave, unfortunately, entries closed on August 3rd (see this) http://www.wigtonmc.co.uk/ccw/index.php., but I often find the cars in the parking field as interesting as some of the exhibits - I don't remember seeing a Probe exhibited last year, and as they are celebrating 50 years of the Escort this year, there will be a lot of Ford fans attending - there are quite a few classic Escort rally cars in Cumbria, so there will be some lovely noises too. If you want to make a real weekend of it, there is the Classic Tour on the Saturday, and although you won't get the free meals and give-away commemoratives of an official entry, the tour takes place on public roads, so they can't stop you following their route. Just get to Cockermouth on time! My next-door neighbour often does it in his OEW XK150 drop-head. I'm just sorry I'm going to miss it this year, - away on holiday!

Hi Dave
According to the organiser from the show I was talking to the other day the attendant who will be on the gate on sunday is a right jobsworth and he lets no one through the gate without the correct pass good luck but no pass no entry. Derek |
