Are you coming down all the way from Aberdeen b..g? That's dedication. Just got Marigold MOTed today, so she's all set to meet up with her relatives. Anyone from the Westcountry joining us?

Hello All,
Looks like Marle Place are giving us our own parking area. This is located down a lane at the eastern end of the garden wall ( left before main entrance from Horsmonden end). They are putting out red arrows to guide us, though I intend to get there early and may send someone ( Del or Harry) up onto the lane to wave people in.
Fingers crossed for good weather. See you all on Sunday!

I wonder if anyone of us is going to take a look at this 'barn find' Renault 4 in Bromley, Kent, while we're there? It's on eBay:

Thank you Becky for organising a wonderful day in a beautiful setting.

Lovely to see everyone again. I'll get on my laptop and upload a few photos too.

 

[Cornish4]

I second that pepper, thank you Becky. A great day seeing friends old and new

 

[mr-reno-139]

weather was good so went with plan A (not a plein air)travelling 50 miles with no problem and had a good day meeting up with fellow owners had a nice cup of tea and cake in the tea rooms and a pleasant wander round the gardens saw a very unusual blue 4 chop top pickup sold a few spares and then got home safely with no rain

 

[alewis]

Sorry, yesterday was a fail from me, I managed to confuse weekends and only figured that out at lunch time, looks like I missed a good turnout that blue one looks ace!

Thanks for organising it Becky, great venue and weather!

Good to catch up, though sorry to have missed you Brian (we saw Marigold, who looks in very good shape )

We counted 15 Renault 4s.




Only rained on Saturday on the way down and on Monday on the way back:

Very sorry to have missed you too Jonathan, and thank you comment on our beloved Marigold. We've just arrived home, 850 miles round trip, the old girl didn't miss a beat. Cheers Brian.

Thanks Brian, hope to see you next year!

Glad you got back OK, that's quite a distance!

 

[Mrs renospeed]

Hi All,

Thanks to everyone for coming, and boy were we lucky with the weather! Nice to see familiar faces and a couple of new young enthusiasts. Glad you had a good trip back Brian, it was good to see you. You now need to get dazzling!
