August 30th next, early morning, some 25 TVR's will leave the ferry at Hull for a trip to Wales. Among them 3000M, S2, Griffiths, Chimaera's, Tuscan's and Sagaris. Our yearly trip to GB, the motherland of our Blackpool thoroughbreds. Looking forward!

Perhaps some other time. In 2005 we went on holiday in Ireland, from Dublin to Baltimore and then along the westcoast up to Donegal. Was a wonderful trip. (Although with a Volvo ;-) Shall mention your tip to the organization.

Hi Jan,Blackpool and Holland have great tastes, same tastes in cars and in football strips, have a great time by the seaside, I take it you will be visiting Bristol Avenue,I was there last week whilst visiting parents in Anchorsholme, still brings a tear to your eye that TVR is still going strong, and it has people like Malcolm AKA "potato muncher" at S&D doing fantastic work just carrying on where the Factory unfortunately finished.

regards
Mark

Almost forgot, put this into your ipod collection for when arriving in Blackpool, and if its a nice sunny Day, gets the hoods down and get the tunes onsmile

Presumably crossing via either Dover or Harwich - PLEASE let us know your route and timings and we will come and cheer on your convoy.

Something like that. There was a clue in the OP's first post though wink
Maybe we can talk the Holland Club guys into coming through South Cheshire.

Having said that, I'm driving down to Spain in the Tuscan the week before they arrive.
1600 miles of asking my Wife to please release the door and console trim and so get her fingernails out of the leather.
