Megablade Paul Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 The plan is to attend the Newark show (some great roads) on Saturday 21st June and then drive over to Curborough on Saturday afternoon (some great roads again) for the BBQ's, beers and camping ready for the speed series and all things Westfield on the Sunday, driving home Sunday afternoon (more great roads). So far, there is Yours Truly, Manchester Mike, AO Hurdsey, Marcus, Kirk and Helen (Adam maybe on his bike?), possibly Wrighster & Kerry. Anyone else welcome. We've still got the details to sort out, start times exact route etc but should be a great weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kik1.6se Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 I don't think Helen will be coming to this one (see's not really into car shows), but Adam will be. He fancies coming as a passenger with me but we'll decide that one closer to the time. I brought a tent yesterday as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megablade Paul Posted June 16, 2003 Author Share Posted June 16, 2003 Aren't women strange, don't like car shows...what are they like Great if Adam's coming along, I'm sure he'll enjoy both days and Scotts beers Fingers crossed for some decent weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcusH Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 Got back last night exhausted but still with a grin on my face. What a weekend....errr well 6 days actually . Weather was generally v hot and sunny (in the 30s I think), the roads and countryside perfect for Westys and the campsite we stayed at was excellent. Cant wait till next year already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thames Valley will be organising something for Le Mans 2003. Could organise a joint thing with Manchester. It was like that this year, but just on a smaller scale. Plenty of room of the campsite - could see 30 or 40 Westies next year. Pictures can be seen here of this years event Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meet at Mikes for a full English at 8ish then set off - show starts at 10 and we need to be drinking Scotts beer by 7pm at Curborough latest! The Newark and Notts Showground is at the intersection of A1/A46/A17 Weather forecast on Ceefax looks OK at the moment - sunny spells both days Welcome back Marcus, as Paul says we need a report Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
