What about East Kirkby in Lincolnshire, where they house and run up the Lancaster bomber? They hold other events.

Although not Midlands - there's no reason why we couldnt have one in Blackpool (better than Skegvegas!) - would have to be unofficial - as the criterion for it to be official - don't IMHO make it worthwhile.

Something like that would be good to do as an overnighter I think. Meet Saturday, have a few (cough) drinks and then something on the Sunday.

East Kirkby would be another good one - there was the All Rover Meeting there this July.

Although not a massive issue, but technically it is upto Brian (Actros) to organise meets in Lincolnshire - but I am sure we can do something!

We did that earlier this year a great day out and they started up the Lancaster now thats an awsome sound makes our v8s sound a bit pale by comparison, I would do that trip again.

Hi Jake, how about Newark Air Museum or Newstead Abbey, now that would be a beautiful backdrop for all our cars and the Abbey is well worth a look round.

I'm really keen on this Idea of Blackpool - why don't we have a chat about it this Sunday at the meet?

Sounds good to me, I'd get a chance to pop to Lytham St Annes where I grew up.


BTW Can I suggest another venue. How about The Prescott Hill climb. I went a couple of years ago and they have sections cordoned off for different manufacturers. They did have one section for MG Rovers But I can't remember how many were there.

I took these photos to give you a feel for it... Click Me

It truly is a fantastic day out for the family.
