Lakeland Motor Museum Meet;
 

After a recent visit to the Motor Museum,I have arranged with them to hold a meet there on;

Date; Sunday 20th September 2015

Time; 11.00 Hrs but can arrive later if you have some distance to travel.

www.lakelandmotormuseum.co.uk

The Museum have also advised me,there is a 10% discount on entry into the Museum for Members who carry their 75 & ZT Owners Club Membership Card,so please be advised,to receive the discount,you must have your card with you.

I have also added the Museum website for attendees &/or Families who wish to take advantage of attractions joint with the Museum whereby you can purchase separate or combined ticket/s for the Museum &/or travel on the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Steam Railway &/or a cruise along Lake Windermere on the Windermere Steamers.

I will of course be in touch with RS's of the following Regions,to hopefully have this event placed in their sections to see if we can create further interest from Members from further afield,this is in no-way restricted to those Regions,as all are very welcome indeed the more the merrier.

Scottish Region.
North East Region.
Yorkshire Region.
North West Region.

Very Much in line with the Gretna meet,which incidentally in the very beginning I had a hand-in with DerekOsb,I would very much like this event to become an Annual event, again,dependant on the interest,if we can get a good turn out,we could gauge if a goer for an Annual.

For Members interested in attending this meet,could you please add your name in the Cumbria Region,I will then add you to the list,many thanks in anticipation of your possible interest.

This is a fantastic venue for meets like ours,the Museum staff are always very accommodating & always welcoming towards us,as have held events there before,indeed our own Club held it's 2nd National meet of 2012 there in September of that Year,so come on Guy's 'n' Gal's put your names down,let's have a good-un.

Lakeland Museum
 

Looking forward to the meet tomorrow, but am in a bit of a dilemma, as to which car to take, the Blue ZT or the new Cat, both have been cleaned and polished today, and are ready to go, so I think I will have to decide in the morning, but suspect that it will be the ZT, as it is a 75 and ZT Meet

Stu

Have s great day chaps, I'm thinking of you:}

Lakeland Motor Museum
 

Got back about 1745 hrs and had a bite to eat, but wanted to say a massive thanks to the Birthday Boy, he did us proud, was nice to meet friends old and new

The drive down took longer than I though, but drive back was excellent except one spot on the A66, which had a set of traffic light, for no reason other than to cause congestion, but otherwise a lovely drive back.

And to mark the day, Jon and Jan, provided us with a fantastic rosette, and it is greatly appreciated.

Once again Jon, Happy Birthday, and thanks very much for organising today

Stu

:} Thanks to all for a cracking day out , the museum was well worth a visit , it was nice to meet everyone , and the rosette was a really nice touch , even had a nice drive home through Alston on the A 686 which was very scenic , all in all a great day out

Had a good day today, thanks for organising it John

Had a great time today, it was good to catch up with everyone.
Many thanks (& happy birthday ) to John for arranging the day & look forward to the next one.
I took a few pictures but am struggling to get them to upload at the moment so sorry to the people whose cars i have not added.

Steve.

Great time, nice to meet up with everybody and "chew the fat".

Many thanks to the birthday boy John for organising it all, thanks also for the rosette it was a rather nice touch.

Nice pictures Steve :bowdown:, I'd just decided to give up on Photobucket :rolleyes:.

Journey home on the M6 was somewhat eventful, passed Chris (Rovernut) as he joined at junction 35, then ran into heavy slow moving traffic which turned out to be due to an accident in the third lane (closed) just before junction 34, Chris ended up behind me, not sure though if he realised this. Finally arrived home about an hour later than expected at 7:00pm, oh the joys of travelling on the M6.

Really sorry to have missed this:o More pressing matters I'm afraid. Looks like you all enjoyed it & I look forward to the next one John:bowdown: Oh, & Happy Birthday;):}

Smashing day out at Lakeland Museum, thanks John for organizing this event. Happy birthday for yesterday. Good to meet friends old and new. Venue was excellent. Some top notch cars on display including good examples of Rover 800 and SD1 Vitesse. My favourite was Mk1 Escort Mexico.
The three hour journey home was OK except for dozy cow on 4X4 towing a caravan on the A65 doing 30-40 !!!!!!!:mad::mad::mad: I managed to stot passed her on a straight bit and all was well after that. :D:D:D

Thanks John for arranging this great meet at a terrific venue. It was good to meet old and new friends and put the world straight. I hope you enjoyed your birthday and chocolate cake.

I certainly would come again if you make it an annual event, in fact I am going to suggest it for a northern Dolomite club also.

The journey home was uneventful, slower than when coming due to the volume of returning holidaymakers and a lorry. Only down side mad bikers all seeming to have a Lemming like death wish overtaking en mass on double white lines brow of hills and blind bends. What is it with these guys???

Bob

As already been said by many, John thanks for arranging this meet and also hope it gave you a Happy Birthday. Would love to do it again, very pleasant folks who attended, and good conversations amongst many.

Well done John, another good meet. It would be great to make this meet an annual event, perfect venue.

Firstly,I would sincerely like to thank everyone who put their names forward for this meet,very much appreciated,many thanks Guy's.

Secondly,my sorrow to the Members who could not make it,another time possibly,

Last,but certainly no means least,I would like to pay special thanks to the Members,Friends & Family who attended with them,including my own Family,for attending thus helping to make this such an extra special meet for me on the occasion of my Birthday,many,many thanks everyone deeply appreciated.

As I have previously said,I would love to make this an Annual Event around this time of the year,so will start the ball rolling in the New Year,thus giving time to intending Members to make necessary arrangements.

Just remains to say a very big thank you from Jan & Myself again to everyone & to round the meet season off,hope to see many of you at the Bowes Museum Meet next weekend & the Clubs National Meet at Leyland the following weekend

Very Best Wishes.

Jan & John.

Btw Seems to have my thanks button

I really enjoyed the meet on Sunday, nice to catch up with everyone, I'd forgotten just how good that little museum was. I'd be up for a return visit next year. Well done John:}

Many thanks for that Col,It was good to catch up with you again,yes it's not a bad little Museum & as mentioned would love for this to become an annual event.

Many thanks also for attending,hope to see you again soon,take care.

Cheers Mate.....John.

Looks like you all had a good time. Hope to make the meet next year.

Many thanks Bob,yes it was a great day,hope you can make it next year,would love to see you there.

Best Regards.

John.

Happy belated birthday John, I'm sorry we couldn't make it to this meet but I'm going to do my best for next year. I drive past that museum twice a day and still haven't stopped off and had a look around:duh:

Many thanks for the best wishes Tony,no probs hope you can make it next year,its a fantastic venue for a meet,in the meantime,hope to meet up with you at the Leyland National next week.

Best Regards.

John.

The video of a great day, I've included Mark's lovely R8 Coupe and a good view of the museums, hope you enjoy :cool:.

Thanks for that video J1MBO it has captured the day perfectly.

Brilliant video, Jim. Good views of the museum and our beloved cars.

Thanks for your kind comments gents.

Many thanks from Jan & I for the superb video Jim,your videos certainly capture the cars & venue,in this case The Lakeland Motor Museum,bringing out the best of both to the full.

The LMM,in mine & many other members [according to very favourable comments]view is a truly fantastic venue for events such as ours,to the point,as I have stated, I personally would like to make this an annual event in line with the superb Gretna meet.

It is Superbly made videos such as yours Jim,that can only have a positive effect,thus giving prospective & future attending members a taste of what delights they may expect.

I spoke to the Museum staff afterwards,to thank them for everything they did,including giving us a prime location on site,as opposed to the overspill carpark as was originally intended,which I personally thought was a smashing gesture on their part.

I was delighted to hear from them also,how much they enjoyed having us there & would certainly welcome us back for future events.

With this in mind,it just remains to thank you once again,keep up the superb work that you do,take care & we will see Jean & Yourself at Bowes on Sunday.

Best Regards.

Jan & John.

Many thanks for your very kind comments John, they are really appreciated.

I too think the Lakeland Motor Museum is an ideal venue and warrants an annual event being held there.

Looking forward to meeting up with you both at Bowes on Sunday.

That was a cracking video :} hope to get there again next year

Another video of the day, this time just featuring the museum



I've still another project from the Lakeland meet currently in the making ;).

Final one from the meet at Lakeland, a short featuring an R8......
