Thanks Chris. 2nd post updated.
I have just received the 5 passes which I will distribute in the next few days. ( Robin, you should have received yours from the organisers)
Our allocated arrival has been scheduled between 09:00 and 09:10. I will sort a suitable meeting point ( the pet shop lady got rather excited last year as we had parked in the car park outside) in due course. 6 cars should make for quite a nice spectacle.
All the best
Neil

.......and it looks like we have been allocated covered hard standing space the same as last year (6 cars not 4 as indicated on the plan). Please see attached site plan.
If anyone has local knowledge on a rendezvous point let me know otherwise I will have a search on google maps

Sadly, I don't think that I'll have my car back in time for this event.
I drove it down to the Light Car Co. this last Monday to be worked on. It was backfiring and popping, carbs were spitting, the idle was all over the place and it was generally not running very well. I suspect an air leak in the carbs as the shafts had some play - but we'll see. It did seem to be quite a fast change in behaviour, which I wouldn't expect from a slowly degrading seal. It may be something quick to fix, but realistically, I think the carbs will be off for a rebuild.
I'm hoping to have it back by mid-July for Classic Nostalgia at Shelsley, and the LMC national rally.

Justin, that is a shame, I was looking forward to meeting you and having a close inspection of a Real one.
Still, catch up at the LMC day.
Robin.

Justin echoing Robins sentiments, such a shame and hopefully catch up at LMC.
All the best for a speedy fix
Neil
