Trentham Gardens - 21st June

PaulPSB · **Posted:** Sat Jun 06, 2009 9:19 am

Hi Folks

We're off to Trentham for the Classic Vehicle show on Father's Day (21st June)

This is a great venue but a little difficult to get into so we plan to be early this year in an effort to beat the rush.

Meet from 8.45am at Hilton Park services (M6 north near Junction11) to leave in convoy at 9.10am

We will BBQ (weather permitting) so it would be good to know how many are coming to plan food.
Please add your names below

Also if anyone is willing to bring some burgers or something along please let me know so we co-ordinate everything. There's nothing worse than having 30 burgers and no buns!

Central, East Mids and Cheshire/Staffs regions will all be in attendance so we should have a large display on the day.

See you there

Paul

Normally I advise folk to book in advance through the Transtar website but having just taken a look http://www.transtarpromotions.co.uk/it appears that the event is sold out :shock:

If you come on the day as "Joe public" the cost is £8 per adult and £5.50 for kids and you will not be able to park your car on the club stand although you are welcome to come and walk in to the show to join us.

Best I can suggest is that you send me a PM next week (Mon 15/Tues 16) and I will get in touch with the organisers and see whether I can beg an extra place in the club display area although I suspect not this time if it's full

Hope that helps

Paul

As this event is sold out can I please ask a favour:

If anyone has pre-booked but is unable to attend the show please get in touch so we can have use of the ticket for someone else.

I'll make sure you get your money back for the ticket

the label was American Gramophone, and CB was a major reason why I gave up amateur radio!

Tickets are normally a week to ten days prior to the show so watch the post over the next few days

yup mines here now, see you at hilton park with wifey and kids in tow

Thanks to all that joined us on sunday - We counted 26 Porsches on the stand and having wandered around the show I think we were one of the biggest club displays

NIce to have the Cheshire & Staffs mob along

The BBQ was spoiled by the arrival of the "Burger Police" acting for Trentham Estate - apparently they have decided BBQ's are not allowed in the grounds

so if we do this event again next year it will have to be bacon butties from the camping stove :lol:
