<br />
its been posted on the Club's Facebook page and WhatsApp group, but if anyone reading <br />
this is interested in attending Really Retro Show 2025 at Penkridge Market near Stafford,<br />
I need to know asap.<br />
<br />
I've got (I think) 8 DeLorean's coming so far, plus a Renault Twingo Mk1 (me) and a Trabant.<br />
<br />
We'll have a gazebo, tables &amp; refreshments, you'll just need to bring your own chairs.<br />
<br />
Please drop me a DM if you haven't already contacted me on WhatsApp or Facebook, and I'll <br />
add you to the list.<br />
<br />
I need to give the organisers final numbers by the end of April.]]></description>

Details to  be finalised but are likely to involve scenic drives, a club dinner, visits to museums and trips out among some of the best scenery the UK has to offer - but until then : save the date!!]]></description>

<br />
Can people let me know if you'd like a spot on the Club Stand at the Really Retro Show near Stafford this year?<br />
<br />
The organisers have given us a least 6 spaces, but I need to get back to them asap with names and reg numbers<br />
so that I can book you in and pay for the tickets.<br />
<br />
I'll lay on snacks, beverages, and the gazebo as usual, all you need to bring is your car and yourselves.<br />
<br />
I've also mentioned this on the Club WhatsApp group and it'll be on the Facebook page &amp; other socials, so hopefully <br />
between them, we can get to as many members as possible to gauge interest.<br />
<br />
Ideally I need to know by the end of April, but Mid May will have to be the cut-off for people wanting to come.]]></description>

<br />
I've not booked anything yet, but do we have any preferences for <br />
location for this years Xmas meet up?<br />
<br />
I try and keep it near to a major road or motorway to make access<br />
as easy as possible, but I'm open to suggestions.<br />
<br />
Also, we call it the 'East Midlands meet', but literally everyone is welcome<br />
if they fancy a drive out.  DeLorean is optional, this is always more of a <br />
social event then a car meet.<br />
<br />
Ideally we need to formulate something in the next week-ten days so <br />
that we can be in with a chance of booking somewhere.]]></description>

John Kennedy who owns DWU140W is driving down to see us (sans DeLorean) next Saturday,<br />
and he'd love to meet some more owners and chat all things DeLorean.  I think so far we've got<br />
Andy Westerman, Chris McGeachy and Rich Hanlon joining us, and possibly a new owner from <br />
Matlock, but if anyone else wants to join us with our without a DeLorean, then the more the merrier!<br />
<br />
If the weather is nice, I'll fire the bbq up too (if its not, I'll do pizzas, chips, nuggets, etc).<br />
<br />
As I said, we're in Nottinghamshire, about 5 miles from J27 of the M1.  We've got a fairly decent driveway,<br />
but space will be limited, so I might put my car out on the road to make more space.  Phill has a few jobs<br />
to do on Sorbet, so a tinker session is definitely in order!<br />

<br />
I am emailing you as Amerton Railway in Staffordshire is holding a two-day classic car event on the <span style="font-weight: bold;">9th and 10th September 2023</span>. We would very much like for individuals or clubs to bring along their classic vehicles to this show. We have previously run this event very successfully as a one day event, but this year we want to go bigger and bring together the immutable mix of classic vehicles and trains! As a registered charity, we're running this event in aid of the continuing maintenance and restoration of our heritage locomotive and carriage fleet .<br />
<br />
You can see a little more information about the event and find application forms on our website at <a href="http://www.amertonrailway.co.uk/road-and-rail" target="_blank">www.amertonrailway.co.uk/road-and-rail</a><br />
<br />
I have attached a few photographs of the railway and our previous event. <br />

If you are interested in attending as a club, we can arrange group applications to save on paperwork, just pop me an e-mail or call me on <a href="http://tel:07807056814" target="_blank">07807056814</a><br />

			<title><![CDATA[Gliding Weekend? April/ May 2023.]]></title>

			<description><![CDATA[Hello all,<br />
<br />
As some of you know I've done a small amount of gliding as a pastime and even briefly made it to solo flying this year, having completed the first stage of training.  For various reasons I haven't been since June, and in the winter it can be a bit hit and miss as it is obviously strongly weather-related!<br />
<br />
However I have been wondering about trying to arrange a DOC weekend at the Gliding Centre which is the one I had been going to, based in Husbands Bosworth near Lutterworth.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.theglidingcentre.co.uk/" target="_blank">The Gliding Centre | One of the UKs leading Gliding Clubs</a><br />
<br />
I do know they occasionally host various clubs and have basic accommodation, a cafe/ restaurant doing breakfast, lunch and evening meals, and bar on the airfield, plus camping pitches with electric hookup.  Hopefully weather depending (again, obviously) there would be the chance to take a number of trial flights on the Saturday.  Depending on the conditions these can either be winch-launched or towed by a light aircraft, which means a higher release and more opportunity to find thermals.<br />
<br />
I had been thinking Late April or May next year on a non-bank holiday weekend (as these weekends are typically busy with gliding club members) and can therefore be difficult to get flights in.<br />
<br />
Anyway, if there is a quorum of members with an interest I shall go ahead and make enquiries.  Just a conceptual idea at the moment, which a tentative phone call has indicated is theoretically possible. <br />
<br />
I don't know what they might offer in terms of costs or accommodation fees but the 'book price' is usually about £10 for camping, £20 for a room, some static caravans etc, and trial flights are about £60 for a winch.<br />
<br />
If you fancy it, reply here, and I'll see if we can muster the numbers; then I would have to approach them to try to arrange a date and some better cost estimates.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Hello all,<br />
<br />
As some of you know I've done a small amount of gliding as a pastime and even briefly made it to solo flying this year, having completed the first stage of training.  For various reasons I haven't been since June, and in the winter it can be a bit hit and miss as it is obviously strongly weather-related!<br />
<br />
However I have been wondering about trying to arrange a DOC weekend at the Gliding Centre which is the one I had been going to, based in Husbands Bosworth near Lutterworth.<br />

any interest in a Midlands Area Xmas meet up this year?  I know costs<br />
for many people have meant a squeeze on household budgets, with <br />
rising mortgages, bills, food prices, etc - we've certainly felt it here and <br />
are having to cut back on expenditure.<br />
<br />
Do we have a preference on location?  Last years venue in Clay Cross near<br />
Chesterfield is no longer a 'Big Jims' steak house.  In previous years, we've <br />
been to the 50's Diner near Swadlincote just south of Derby.  Or do you fancy<br />
somewhere new?  <br />

make some enquiries and see what is available.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Following on from how successful last years day was, we thought we would like to re-run the day this year and possibly turn it in to an annual event.<br />
<br />
I think the August Bank Holiday worked for us and am proposing the 29th August again.<br />
<br />
Could we call on your help again to make it another day to remember please.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Hi all, British motor museum at Gaydon do a few evening events over the course of the year.  Next one is Tuesday 19th May at 5pm.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/whats-on/gaydon-gathering-may" target="_blank">https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/wha...hering-may</a><br />
<br />
I went to one or two last year but missed the April one due to iffy weather.  It just a simple turn up in the car park event but they usually get something from the Heritage collection out for a blast.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I'm half planning on going to the next one, if anyone wants to come along. Perhaps see a few there.<br />

went to in 2018.<br />
<br />
<br />
Details here:  <a href="http://www.reallyretroshow.com/" target="_blank">http://www.reallyretroshow.com/</a><br />
<br />
I've emailed the organisers asking about a Club Stand, so if there is enough interest I'll take the matter further with<br />
them.<br />
<br />
I'll be going, but as part of the Cavalier &amp; Chevette Club as my De won't be on the road.  Phill might take #6772 <br />
if its on the road though.]]></description>
