I will be taking my 1930 Packard to Calverton tonight instead. Strange that there is no thread for this - its supposed to be a bigger gathering, we'll see...
Claire - Sorry but I hope your Delorean flunks the test next week - I'd like to have a good look at the Avantime - fabulous car!!
Only kidding - love the DMC as well!!

I really can't see why someone thought it was a good idea to have the Calverton meeting on the same night as the established Papplewick meeting. They're only about 5 minutes drive time apart.....! Perhaps the fourth Wednesday would have been better (the second Wednesday would clash with Ashby Folville most months)Edited by YKB on Wednesday 4th May 12:03
I don't think it is Calverton tonight, I thought that one was just the 1st Weds on the month, not every 2weeks.
I was at the 1st calverton do, not many there at all, if the Suburu owners club hadn't turned up sure it would have been a flop, I spoke to the organiser, he had no idea it. Clashed with Griffin' head do.
I think he is really after the boy racer brigade like MFN, make a killing on £2 a head, ill stick with the griffin, least its free, no one charging you to look at your own car.

I agree, its a shame to have to choose one over the other. The Calverton meet is only monthly though. I have never attended Calverton so I thought I might give it a try. I'll definitely be back at Papplewick next time though, weather permitting.I know theres a charge for the Calverton meet.
Is it £2 each person or per car?
I'd begrudgingly hand over £2 for the car even though I am contributing to the "entertainment" but I wont spend £8 to take me, the missus and the kids. No way Pedro!
You got me thinking now that it is really only for the boy-racers.
I might change my mind and go back to the Griffin
