Thanks, Ian. Sad times, James.
Waiting to hear from Jo if she's managed to keep any of the gears in the RX-4 after they all quit a couple of times at Japshow
. I'll add her provisionally.

Re: Retro Rides Gathering - 23rd August 2015 - Shelsley Wals
I'm going to get there early..... last year the queues to get onto the show field soon built up..... we had about a 20-30 min wait but this year I'm going a bit earlier... I'd rather get in there then have a cup of tea waiting for everyone else to arrive than be stuck in the lane waiting to get in. If you've got a stand pass you can get in at 8.00am so I'll be there for then.A7RXY wrote:I'm hoping to drive from London Saturday afternoon and looking to stay close by Sat night any recommendations would help. what time are the rest of you hoping to turn up on Sunday morning ?

You pulled in just after me didn't you, Ian? I didn't think the wait was tooo bad. But then again I was stressing over my car overheating, dodgy clutch hydraulics, handbrake not holding and learning to drive!ian65 wrote:I'm going to get there early..... last year the queues to get onto the show field soon built up..... we had about a 20-30 min wait but this year I'm going a bit earlier...

Dibs. There is a Premier Inn in Worcester if that is what you're after? I'd think plenty of smaller B&B's also. Don't know any off the top of my head though. If it comes down to it, I'm sure we could find space at my place

Hobbawobba, thanks for the offer, how far are you from RR as I was hoping to get there as Ian says at about 8am, or do you know of any pubs that have rooms near you or close by ?
