Went to the 75th one I believe! THey had another one or two after that, and wanted to make it an annual thing, but sadly it didn't happen, good to see this is back. I'll try and make this. Would be good to get a few 300's there!

Gives a rough timetable of events. Is it worth getting in contact and saying we are attending as a club?

So far, list looks something like:

Chris
Pete
Ali
Adam
Steve(?)

Add your names to the above.. if we are gonna have a useful number, it probably is worth letting them know.

Sounds like an idea, I was only thinking about this the other night. At least then we can park together without too much hassle. It'd be a nice idea to maybe take a load of the cards with the URL for poeple to take and a V3M website address banner or something to put infront of our area if we get one?

Maybe leaflets over cards tbh, gives a bit more of a presence. Anyone got a marquee (how the heck do you spell that?) Good idea on the banner too.

You are right Rupert, it is clear that with great age, comes great wisdom!

It's just a shame that the 1st class train I'm getting back from London doesn't go down the M40, and I'd much rather spend two and a half hours on an air-conditioned train with free food and drink, than seven in a car, which is how long it took me to get down to London last time I drove!

Would be awesome to have a bit of a stand. Especially with the modded cars?

Lol!

I reckon a stand is a plan, but I'm not for having just modded cars tbh, I thought V3M was for 300's of all types, so surely the stand should be a cross section of our members. Be nice as well to have a small write up about each (I have done for a couple of meets when it isn't just us lot, inc this years VOC annual rally, and it really does interest a lot of people)

Defo up for a stand, does anyone have a marquee type thingy? If we all meet outside, and drive in as a group, we'll be put together anyway. Also, does anyone have access to a big printy thing, for making a banner? No idea how we'd secure it, I can see it turning into a big kite atm, but worth a thought!
