    Cumbria classic car show

    Anyone fancy it this year, a cracking little show on the sunday, could always camp up at the usual on the saturday night for that home brew feeling ... half hour drive to the show from there?

    https://www.rtoc.org/boards/calendar....=2009-8-23&c=1

    entries have to be submitted for the 7th august though so let me know

    stu's car blown up? really?? you do surprise me

    I only say that 'cos it's only attempt No1. We all know he's got at least another 6 rebuild before he perfects the dyson, he'll have it fixed!
    Hope it's at ND, get cracking with those spanners Stu

    Yeah, Lou's mum has been at the house in Bowness for the last 3 weeks and she says it's been rain, rain and more rain. At least you won't have a hosepipe ban! Would it be rearranged or just cancelled?

    Re: Cumbria classic car show

    sorry for taking so long but waiting for the organisers to get back to me after the run they have today.

    They say the show is still on , but i am concerned that the met office website say there's a chance of really heavy rain and possible flooding.. what do you guys think , if you are prepared to drive up and risk the wet stuff - i would just hate for you to drive up to find a waterlogged field?

    Re: Cumbria classic car show

    Well last year was very soggy under foot, and we'd not had as much rain as this year, so im with Dave, i fear it'll be like a swamp, i also fear not many collectors will want to take their pride and joy classic out to a muddy field on a sunday.
    Im gunna stay at home, get under lous feet and watch the grand prix. soz tim, you'll have to come along to the next curry meet
