Really looking forwards to this weekend!!

Who's on for the run out on the Saturday?
I'll have the family on board on Sunday, so on Saturday might take a slight detour (ahem) to take in the Peak District / Derbyshire country roads for a gentle peramble.....

So what happens on the Sunday gathering?

I know that we can walk round etc but can we move our cars if we want to go for a drive during the day?

Have faith brother, the only thunder and earthquakes you will hear will be from the sound of 700+ hungry Tivs (and the chattering teeth of their owners!).

Yes you can....if the river floods just reverse up the hill. You will have a great time and check the house out.

CHECK OUT THE VIOLIN. Be amazed!

The Sunday is a static event, there is a run out planned for Saturday and setting off from the Carlton Lees car park at 11am (Chatsworth Garden Centre)
Chatsworth and myself would prefer cars not to be coming and going once inside the TVR area, however you are free to leave when you wish.

Yes I was looking too yesterday, it is a shame that its cooled down from what it has been & forecasted some rain, but there is a good chance things can change again the closer we get to the time.
Lee , how are you getting into the car park when its supposedly Tvr's only , if you can does that mean I can get in as well ??

Heh heh heh - well this will be my (I think) fourth Chatsworth, but last year really took the biscuit. Got out of car in waterproof coat, opened boot, opened umbrella, turned unbrella inside out with the wind, recollapsed it, stuck it back into the boot!!! It came to sheltering in the shops in the stables to drip-dry and get a bit of warmth to get some feeling back into my hands!!

Hoping for a record turnout, but looks like there will be some very interesting cars to see there this year anyhow.

See you there!!

I do, but there's plenty I want to see at Brendan's and more importantly people I want to speak to, will keep in touch

Not had it confirmed by Kev yet as I haven't seen him, but he did mention that I could get in when I first swapped my Cerb, but I don't want to upset anyone so if I can't I will just park in the other car park with all the other ordinary cars.

I think Andy's right Mike, we had all that last year. I even had to put the bloody roof on (only for Sunday though)

Does anyone know why traders have been denied access to this event? The first post states that it is limited to the TVRCC regalia stand only. I think a few well selected traders would make the event much better.
