Dear All,

As you are aware there have been posts here and elsewhere dscussing the options for the above.

There have been some very good ideas but nobody has stepped forward to actually arrange anything. Time is marching on and it had become important to put something on the table otherwise the event would have been lost.

You will see an announcement in Sprint very soon confirming that Alayne has kindly offered to arrange an event for us.

This will be at Thoresby in the August Bank Holiday and will be run jointly with another TVRCC event.

Alayne will post details in due course, but you now know when and where it will be

Dave

Thanks Dave & Alayne, your efforts are appreciated more than you realise.
I will be there barring major mishaps, really looking forward to it.
It's already on my list of Andrew Greenwood's Classic Shows to do this year.
Cheers,
Glen.

Yes, well done Dave & Alayne.

I kept quiet while the original debate about the venue was running but I did seriously think about offering to organise something for this year. I'll keep that idea in my back pocket for another year when hopefully I'll have a bit more time to devote to it.

A stake needed putting in the ground so Thoresby it is. As with anything it's impossible to please everyone but with more notice than last year let's hope more cars can make it in 2013.

A lovely write up in Sprint about last years event.

And a big thank you to everyone who is taking time to organise it this year.

I'm planning to be there for the first time as a new owner - should be a special day !

Will re-jig a few things and try to get there for this one. Less than 2 hours from me, so ideal, is this a one day or spread over the whole weekend event?

Like the Guardian's comments and clarifications section, will we see an entry in next months edition saying 'of course we meant to say Nigel Slater.'

(For fans of I'm sorry I haven't a clue)

Hiya, it'll be just the one day.

If you are interested, we are taking part in another event the day before. This is a classic car event at Stamford which is a nice venue, mixed cars, a few stalls and maybe 5-10 mins walk from the town centre. Entry is by pre-booking (Rotary Club I think) and I'm happy to send you a form if you give me an email address (we're not organising, I just happen to have forms). TVR EM & SY usually take 30+ cars I think, and of course others join us.
