Doesn't look like there is any Ferrari presence there. It's not listed on the area calendar and no-one from F.Chat seems to be going. S'pose I can always park by the ice cream van and sell Cornettos!

Al, Are you going to Harwood, if so i will attend in my 348 spider as well, give you a little support !!!

Let me know if your going should not be a problem from me to go since its fathers day.......!!!!

Can you just turn up on the day. I have no tickets...

[mawds]

Just turn up (£8-ish on the gate) - but you need an exhibitors pass to get into the "show" area.

[burriana]

If there is no Ferrari stand then I may go up early doors, try and blag my way into the exhibitors field, I dunno, stick a TVR badge on the bonnet or something have a quick mooch around then toddle off.

Rather not make any firm plans Justin if you don't mind as I might decide to do something totally different... like get so drunk on Saturday night that i can't see straight the next morning!

You need an exhibitors pass to take your car into the show area.

Tasmin shall go to the ball!

[gemini]

NOw Roger - get ths right - Tas is ok for a prestige event like Harewood but doubtful for Wighill?

[tallbloke]

I'll park down the road a bit.

[ntel]

Talking about new bits and pieces, I've just got a new ACT induction kit for the Chim. If I get some time tomorrow I'll fit it ready for Sunday.

[tallbloke]

Steve, YHM.

Tallbloke, is it OK if I tag along tomorrow, for the run out? I have to get back to Bradford for 12ish so can't stay to long. Can you just run through the schedule for me?

Sure. Meet at my house at 08.30 for coffee, run up to Harewood at 9.00 for 9.25. Park up and enjoy the show. I'll email my location details to you through your profile now.

Car is polished ready for the off,Roger see you and Taff at 8 to 8.15.
Catch up with the rest of you at Harewood House

[tallbloke]

Just got back from a mates wedding reception, car sounded fit enough through the airport tunnel.

See you all in the morning.

[stainless_steve]

Had a great day thanks

[tallbloke]

Nice one Steve, great to see everyone, and thanks to Brian for the warm welcome. I see the TVR section heavily outnumbered the porkers and BMW's again.

Hope you decided against the BBQ Jo, it's just started hosing it down here in Yeadon.

Had a great morning, and my lad loved it too. See you at the BBWF!

[burriana]

Amusing point of the morning was the guy in the red Griff telling his son that my car was made of plastic

Great turn out by the TVRs again, still can't believe (well, actually I can) that the local Ferrari Owners Club didn't even bother arranging a small ride out even if they didn't have enough cars for a stand.

Fingers crossed for the car Steve... 5th time lucky!

We could have put a lot more out there but we only got allocated 15 spaces..
Its only a couple of years ago that we used to have our annual bash on the front lawn of the house and get upwards of 100 cars wanting to come in.. its a shame for us that Harewoods marketing team changed things around.

Not that yesterday was bad or anything.. infact it was good, I enjoyed looking at all the other marques... but the trouble with big public days is that you get a lot more folk with their kids poking around your pride and joy.. why do they always have to touch!
