Having come back to life in July it’s now been put on hold again until people stop sneezing, coughing, wetting themselves etc

Chatting last night in my local and rumours are the guy who organised the monthly meets has now lost interest in continuing to do so as apparently he paid for the marshalling and got absolutely no thanks from those who attended or from the pub who financially benefited from the event. It’s become a victim of its own success with I gather 300+ cars attending after the last lockdown. Tbh I never knew it was run by someone outside of tbe pub. Has anyone else heard anything?

It's run by a chap called Michael Philps as far as I know - he runs the face book page etc.

I love the meets, quite often go...

The last one got a slating from locals, one particular woman on the facebook page called Janet Lofthouse who went as far as to call it an illegal gathering. Only takes a few people like that to complain to the pub, local authorities and the police, and it'd be more of a headache to put on than not

(coming from experience of organising things for other people)
Nothing illegal about it but that won’t stop the naysayers trying to put and end to a 30yo event.
