Rab (bombero) Reid Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Right guys, after our meeting recently, it would appear that there's more interest for a group trip down to Stoneleigh You don't need me to tell you but this is a great event and undoubtedly the best opportunity to meet other members and see so many westys (and other kitcars) in one place!I'm posting this now as we'll need to get our finger out if this is going to materialise! Ask ANY questions you have on here and we'll get some group agreements for timings, travel and sleeping arrangements. Also, please feel free to air any concerns that you may have on taking this trip and we can discuss and share on here! Some wish to camp on-site and details can be found on the elsewhere on the forum and from the website, but suffice to say that there'll be a westy only plot that'll keep you all together. I've details of a cheap'n'cheerful hotel close by but you must let me know very soon as rooms are going fast. There's secure parking, of course!Start posting your interest and I'll update this post:bomberoclansmanChris Raetheprisoner Angus Hornet600JimMMatta Wills 57 Andy (SKC) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Dastardly Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I'd certainly like to make this trip. I can't totally commit, but I'm happy to book and pay for anything I need to, and if I can't do it c'est la vie. Probably prefer a hotel as I'm soft like that Doug (would I need to wash my car?)

No worries, mate. I'll look into room availability as soon as we get more responses. Car can come as it is! @clansman, are you and Chris needing rooms? I'll check on singles and twins.

theprisioner Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 How many are taking their Kit Cars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Dastardly Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I'd certainly like to, but given it's a 1000 mile round trip for me I reserve the right to chicken out if the forecast looks terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab (bombero) Reid Posted February 8, 2015 Author Share Posted February 8, 2015 How many are taking their Kit Cars? The preferred plan would be everyone .. or at least, most of us! I certainly intended the suggestion that way but did leave it open to car (tintop) sharing or clubbing together and hire a self drive minibus. I'm obviously hoping it'll be kitcars!! If planned properly, we'll have a leisurely drive down on the Saturday with pre-planned fuel stops. Could even look into a support van if that's an option..

Doug, it is a long leg for you in a oner right enough, and I'm not sure what clansman has planned from the Aberdeen area. If you guys can spare the time, drive down to here abouts on the Friday. You could all squeeze in at mine (I've just enough floor space, lol) or we could spread you out across some of the other lowlanders, or a cheap B&B in this area..

JimM Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Count me in for the trip. I'll be going in the Tiger and meeting the Tiger boys down there. Usually camp on site but may look at better accommodation this year. Will check this out later. Cheers Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprisioner Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Angus and I usually take the kits. Last year the weather was awesomely good both for camping and driving. I have been other years when this was far from the case. It is good crack to take the cars, There is an awesome p***-up on the Saturday night (ask Angus). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clansman Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 That's what I like to see ....plenty of names the more the merrier As for the room(s) Rab for me is a definite as for Chris I would guess the same but I can contact him and get him to make a choice. As for what mode of transport to do it in ..............is there any other option other than the Westie!!!! Come on Doug Dastardly your a Scotsman from the highlands it is only water lol Having a pit stop in your area Rab is a good idea was thinking that as well, Doug could either meet there or met us in Aberdeen and come down to you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
