It seems the Red Lion no longer want our custom so we are changing venue. Until a better option comes up we are going "back to our roots" and the next meeting (1st March) will be at the Crow's Nest near Tring. More details HERE. As you can see, it's a Beefeater so there's a good choice of food, the coffee is a million times better than the tar they served in the Red Lion, the car park is ideal and Aaron the boss is very happy for us to be there. So far then lot's of boxed ticked but we'll need to be sure everyone is happy.

Another proposed change: I need to know whether this PH thread is still the best place to post up announcements.

I've set up a Facebook Group which you can view here... https://www.facebook.com/groups/182998839586235/

It's a closed group so if you can't see it then please PM me your email address and I'll send you an invitation.

Have a look at the events tab and see what you reckon. None of these are set in stone and we can discuss at the next meeting.

Personally I hate Facebook with a passion but if that's the easiest way for the Group to communicate then I'm very happy to maintain the TVRCC-Bucks Group pages. The FB Group has a number of advantages over PH, some of which you'll see on the "Events" tab, but I know not everyone likes it.

Please have a think about it and let me know at our next meeting on 1st March - at the Crows Nest thumbup

There doesn't seem to be much enthusiasm for FB. No one has asked to join the FB Group so far.

Bicester Super Scramble on the 26th April.

Discounted booking is now open...

http://bicesterheritage.co.uk/tickets/april-scramb...

he discounted price is well worth having but you'll need to book before 28th February.

I won't know until the end of next week whether the Oxford Group are booking a Club parking slot so you can hold off until then or go ahead and book anyway. Bear in mind though that these events do sell out pretty quiclkly.

Note they say that "Classic" is pre-1990 so remember that when you're typing in the year of registration thumbup

The Oxford Group has made a club booking for the parc ferme so if you haven't booked already use the code TREVOR on the booking screen.

If you'd already booked prior to getting the code but would still like to be in the "parc ferme" just 'phone the office at Bicester and they will make the change 01869 327 928.

Hello All
I hope everyone is keeping well in these difficult times and maybe getting the TVR out even if only for that one essential shopping trip smile

Bicester Super Scramble - in case you haven't already seen it, here's the latest...

BICESTER LATEST

Monthly Meets - The Govt. seems to be suggesting that things may loosen up at the beginning of July. With that in mind, the first Sunday in July is the 5th so I'd provisionally suggest that as being our next meeting. Subject of course to events between now and then and restaurants/pubs being allowed to open that weekend and any other restrictions/guidelines introduced between now and then, and of course everyone's individual situation.

What do you think?

Keep safe and keep polishing thumbup

August meet latest -

Bad news I'm afraid guys. This is the latest from TVRCC.....

We have been monitoring the Government’s rules on meetings carefully to see if there are any changes in the pipeline. Unfortunately the recent review didn’t make any changes to the 2 households and 6 people regulation so larger gatherings are still not permitted. This applies to England, I am conscious that the situation in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is slightly different so I will leave those ROs to keep up to date with their own special requirements. It’s a pain, I think we would all like to get back to normal meeting as quickly as possible but we are stuck with it. Keep Safe. Fred

So fingers crossed for September then.

Stay safe and keep polishing thumbup

Hello all! Great news! Bicester is opening up again for events, details here...

https://bicesterheritage.co.uk/whaton/octoberscram...

If you already hold a pass for the April or June Scrambles then these will grant you access. The organisers recommend you log into your Eventbrite account and print off your new pass which specifies the October date (all pass holders will need to display their paper or digital pass on entrance).

I'll be contacting the Crow's Nest to check what arrangements if any they want us to make in the hope we can re-start our monthly meets from the first Sunday in September (the 6th).

Watch this space thumbup

AT LAST!!!

An event is happening!

The Top Cats Open day is planned for the 17th July 2021.

This in an official TVRCC event so it’s important that we have an idea of numbers so that we can make all the necessary arrangements.

Can you let Alex Gray alex.gray255@googlemail.com know if you are planning to go and if you would like would like to put your car on a ramp for a poke around underneath.

Thank you - Joe
