16-8-2015. Stafford
« on: July 28, 2015, 10:42:08 AM »
I've booked in to the "Runway Display" at Stafford Air Port ( no, I didn't know there was one either ) on Sunday the 16 of August.

Never been to an event organised by these people before.  They do two a year, so maybe next year one worth a few more going to it as it's just off the M6.

Not all problems can be solved with gaffer tape.  For those there is WD40.
Not even gaffer tape can fix stupid, but it can mask the sound.

If you can’t buy it or steal it you have to make it.

Oh is that where the gliding club is.?

If anybody is going for a look you need to go onto the web site for directions as the post code is for an industrial estate down the road as the site itself doesn't have a separate post code.

If anybody else is thinking about coming entry and payment (£3.50 ) is completely on line.  If anybody else is coming let me know and we can arrive together as I have booked in as a single car not as a club.

Oops.  As Tenpin has just pointed out, the show is this year, not last year.

Not a problem for me as I live in the past anyway.

Slugs.    Thanks for the advise.  It's only a few miles away and I've paid my £3.50 so I'll go anyway.

I don't know the history of this show so I'm going with an open mind, or is that an empty mind.  If it's c..p I won't go next year, if it's good more of us might go.  It gets me out of mowing the lawn ( or what's left after the chickens have dug part of it up.)

Will you be coming up from Hinkley, M6 not bad.   Remember I owe you an ice cream.  :-)

Sounds good to me.  Best plan is for you to come here.  I live in Burntwood so it's more or less on the way.  I'll PM the address if that's OK with you.

Anybody else coming.?

Went to Shugborough least weekend ( not to be confused with the Runway display which is this weekend ).  1300 cars there.  Can we manage a few more West Coasts next year.
We could go as a club or just as part of the Kit Car class.
