Blue Tuscan Hitchin to Stevenage road!
Discussion
Well im In hitchin, well just outside at Henlow, know another guy on here I met at a Tvrcc day at offord if from Hitchin way with a mk2 tuscan in silver. Hope to see a few more around, normall go for a coffee on sunday in town and park up in the center. Maybe we should make it a sunday meet once a month!
Come to think of it, I did see a blue Tuscan parked up outside Nero's once. That was probably you then. I live about 500yards from there so it's pretty hard to drag the Mrs. out for such a short drive! I usually warm the car up most Sundays and then belt down either the Wymondley bypass or the Luton road.
I'll keep a look out for you as I'm always having coffee in the town Sunday mornings.

If you come into Hitchin Sundays anyway, the Three Moorhens might be a reasonable choice for parking if early enough - before the Sunday lunch brigade arrive. There are tables outside close to the cars. If not, Henlow sounds fine but I don't really know about the pubs there (apart from the Five Bells - if it still exists!). Or for a relatively short country drive, Ashwell is really scenic for any photo-opportunities and has a couple of good pubs (Three Tuns & the Bushel & Strike). Open to suggestions!
Three moorhens sound good as does Ashwell, not been out that way and always looking for somewhere good to get some photos. Wont be able to do this sun though as going to Wales on a hiking exped. And the car is getting a touch up for the stone chips on the front end. Are you going to the Baldock Herts&Beds meet next week?
Oh yes the Five bells is ok, and so is the Crown on the corner with a decent car park too. I dont mind whichever as an excuse for a drive is always good. So the further the better!

I'd like to go along to the meet but am not a TVRCC member yet. I intend to join but not got around to it yet. Are non-members accepted? If so, if you let me know the where/when, I'll gladly turn up. Maybe Nokia can come too as he's still on this post! I lived in Baldock for several years, so know it pretty well.
If we meet up there, maybe we can arrange a drive & pit stop for another day. Thanks for the info.

You don't have to be a TVRCC member to go to a Club Meet - the more the merrier!
I actually manage to inflict myself on both Cambs and Herts/Beds! Cambs meet is 3rd Thursday evening of each month at Conington (near A14) and Baldock 3rd Sunday lunchtime (apologies if this info has already been posted). See you at one of them hopefully. goon1001 said:

Thanks for that Amazon. I'm confused now (doesn't take much!) - is the Baldock meet at Conington too then?

The Herts & Beds meet Amazon is referring to is at Baldock. Non-TVRCC members are very welcome, as are non-TVR owners (the meeting has attracted a Noble, Ultima, Cossie Sierra and a white Omega with some men in blue uniforms...).
Hope to see you there.
PS Grumpy Bear (the RO) has posted directions on the gen TVR forum

Sorry for confusion
The Cambridge Region Meet is on 3rd Thursday evening of each month at the pub in Connington (which is small village near Elsworth/Boxworth/Cambourne). The Herts and Beds Region Meet is at the pub in Baldock on the 3rd Sunday lunchtime in each month. Just to confuse the issue further - during the summer months, the Cambs region have an evening meet and during the winter it is also the 3rd Sunday lunchtime of each month! But we only have to think about summer for now
. Next Cambs meet is Thursday next week (17th) and the next Herts and Beds is the following Sunday lunchtime (20th).
Hope to meet you and one or other - or maybe it will be coffee at Nero's in Hitchin on a Sunday morning!

OK guys, I'm there now. Thanks for that

I'll make the Baldock one as my first event and then we'll take it from there.
Mind you, I still have coffee in Hitchin Sundays, so I'll look (listen!) out for your cars.

Do you go to Nero's too? Are you allowed to park along the road Nero's is in? Seem to recall there are some parking bays? Gassing Station | Spotted TVRs | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
