The first meet is over (breaths a sigh of relief) and we had over 90 people there. A superb location on a beautiful sunny evening. Some lovely cars on display. Good food, a bar, 2 bands and great company.

Next meeting is Wednesday 4 May 2011. See you there?

THE NEXT MEETING WILL BE ON WEDNESDAY 22 JUNE 2011.

From now on the meetings at Sherbrooke will be held on the 4th Wednesday of each month starting in June.

Thanks to everyone for your support so far. The reason for the move is to avoid a clash with the Griffins and to get an extra show into each month, hopefully increasing attendance.

Exactly! That's why only old people have bungalows

It's a shame you live so far away. Getting local Z's to turn up is a real headache and there are enough out there.

It really can be hard getting people out to a meet. But when you do they love it!

Notts car and bike show JULY event.

Hello everyone. The next evening meet will be held at Sherbrooke on Wednesday 27 July from 6pm. The burger van will be present and soft drinks will be available but no bar on this occasion ( my fault, - administrative breakdown).

Two judges will ‘volunteer’ for the evening and a small trophy will be awarded to the car and the bike they would most like to take home.

A trophy will also be awarded for the Best Club Display.

Hold on to your entry tickets as each one is numbered. At 9pm a number will be called and the winner will receive a valuable prize.

Junes event was a bit wet but we still had about 50 cars. The car trophy was awarded to an immaculate Austin Allegro. The bike trophy was not awarded as none turned up, probably due to the weather. The Best Club display was won by Drive It Or Ride It.co.uk with a very impressive turn out. The raffle prize, a nice tool kit, was won by a member from the Notts RS Owners club

I hope to see you all there, help make this the top event in Notts. We have the top venue.
