Hi all,

This was talked about a couple of weeks ago. For those that are not familiar with it this an evening gathering in a small village SW of Melton Mowbray that can attract 100's of cars & bikes, which is held on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. I've not been before but intend to go on 9/5.

When we discussed it there was talk of meeting in or near Market Harborough. How about a 2nd meeting point for those of us in the north of the area? I was thinking about the Rose & Crown at Tilton on the Hill, which is on the B6047 about 1 mile north of the A47 and not far from Ashby? Turn right in the village and the pub is next to the church.

I understand that in mid summer it's best to be at Ashby by 18.30 so suggest meeting at Tilton at 18.15.

Anyone else up for it?

Which route are you taking Mark? Any chance of meeting up on the way, on or near A47, possibly at Tilton on the Hill? If not I'll see you there.

Seeing as I started the thread I suppose I'd better try and get there.

Will depend on time I leave work and level of energy I have once home (just had approx 12 hrs sleep over 3 nights in Spain with plenty of and didn't get home until midnight)

Sorry you couldn't make it Dale - I only just got to Ashby in time to get on the cricket pitch myself (arrived 7.15ish). Unfortunately I left home in a rush and forgot to take my camera!

It was good to meet a few of you there and see an amazing collection of cars & bikes.

I will not be at the next one as I'll be packing the car ready to head to Le Mans the next day, but I'll be there in July.

Is this your TVR petclub?



Yes, the red S is petclubs.

My S was parked next to the orange tuscan 2 on the other side of the crease - you can imagine which got more people looking at it
