Newby Hall, Ripon.. North Yorkshire

Post by **mal** » Wed Jul 11, 2007 10:35 pm

Just wondered if anyone from the Midlands area is planning a visit to the show this Sunday 15th ?
To late for the classics to attend, unless pre-booked, but it is the best show in this area with at least 1800 pre 1972 cars entered + classic m/cycles, scooters etc; massive massive autojumble and concourse events.
Wonderful house and grounds with river cruises, minature railway and adventure playarea for the kids ( and wife )

while you look at the cars

I'll be there in row J with the other 79 Morris's.. come over & say hello..
Great day guaranteed

I do live down South, but the best part of owning a Morris Minor is driving it, in fact from Lands End to Orkney shortly

Hope the weather is as good as it was for the National!

Ah, glad you're coming up Lynda

I did pm you but I've had a few little computer probs; so had no reply... looking foreward to seeing you

BTW Lynda, I have a little 'pressy' I got at Heartbeat last Monday for you.....

I did reply to your pm, but I can't find it in my sent box. Might be my fault as my sent box was 100% full... I've now deleted a few!

I shouldn't be too hard to find on the day... just look for the person in police uniform

They might have you on point duty at the entrance

There are quite a few in period dress on the day, especially with the very old cars.... let's hope you win one of the prizes

I'll arrive there at about 10.30 so will look out for you, we are in the same section anyway....
Impressive list of entrants aint it

Next time I'm up in Middlesbrough for work, I'll drop you a line and we can meet up one evening if you want...

Yeh, that would be great Alex

Thought you might have fancied Newby tomorrow, according to the AA route planner you live 49 mile from Newby, I'll be travelling 40... well worth a trip if you fancy it..

Tomorrow I'll be working hard on getting Fenchurch back on the road as it's my last day off work before I take her on a trip down to Leicester on Friday...

I once knew someone who apparently rebuilt a motorcycle in his loft. He only had a loft hatch

The big up-and-over garage door is off to the left of the picture. I hope I can manage to shuffle her back round to the right orientation to drive her out again
