Horsepower at the House; 27th May 2023 - 9am-11am
Discussion
Good morning all,
Following on from the success of the March event, Athelhampton house are keen to continue with a monthly meet for petrol-heads. As such, the above date has been reserved for us and the format will follow that of the earlier month's event.
The House catering team have proposed that this time round we shall order upon arrival in the Cafe, which I feel will be a welcomed change (although I liked the nature of sitting in the long hall!). I'll validate that there will be discounted refreshments and nosh for those attending again.
ADDED MAY BONUS
Max (previous attendee) will also be there with his company BlackDog detailing and I'd highly recommend chewing his ear off about any questions you may have in maintaining your pride and joys!
If you are keen to attend, please simply reply to this thread with your name, your vehicle and also if you intend to take advantage of a bloody good bite to eat and drink. We've again promised to give advanced figures to Athelhampton in respect of numbers and likewise those likely eating. In the interest of variety, the event is intended for private individuals and not car clubs, but, should you wish to invite other members from similar groups - we understand. There may be a corresponding private Faceache group created as well as an instagram account for those that embrace technology - despite working in IT, I'm not on either of those - so it will be Carly running that side. Still keen to cater for those that still frequent the good ol' PH forums.
Thanks all for your time and I'll kick off proceedings;

I think I guy called Dom (who I’ve chatted to at a couple breakfast meets) popped up after I posted on my story. Think he’d be in an A1 or Golf (?).
But yes for sure. I think maybe on the IG page guide them to the forum or to enquire/ book in via DM’s?

Weather forecast is good excellent. Check!
Skunk is fully functional. Check!
Mrs. Broken has decided that we're going to stay with friends in Shropshire for the weekend. Check!
Sorry, we won't be able to make it. Someone else will have to take the award for stupidest & most impractical vehicle.
Nooooo!!!!!!!! You'll be sadly missed sirSkunk is fully functional. Check!

That would be interesting, I was looking at the gates and they seem to have been shut for decades... assume there is another route?
Nope! They just remain closed unless for special occasions it seems. I'll be engaging with the House this week in respect of a July date (June is very busy for all it seems). Whilst I shall manage the register through here, I do welcome others to invite likeminded individuals to attend, it's great to see the variety each month, whilst keeping the numbers sensible!
