You'll find it on page 6 of Ray and Chris against young owners topic :D

There aren't that many places I can think of off the top of my head in Wiltshire that would be able to accomodate several hundred Minors at the same time, so that's why I'm guessing Longleat, although I'm sure there could be other venues, but none spring to mind readily :D

Fair run for me, but looks like we'll have to wait and see.

How about Cricket St Thomas? It's just up the road from me, which is handy, and they used to hold RAC rallies up there, so they have plenty of room. Some of you may remember To the Manor Born, which was filmed there (only us over 40's!!)

I remember 'To the Manor Born' and I'm only 32! :lol:
Being re-run again on UK Gold at the moment!
Used to go to a Rod and Custom rally at Cricket St Thomas a few years back, agree it's a good venue with plenty of stuff on offer for the family :D

Yes, I remember that too, and I am 29!

Excellent programme. It would be nice to see the location and have a rally at the same time :D

I watch it on UK Gold too, and I am just 40. We don't mention Mr B****y here, he and his "family" were evicted several years ago! Most of the wild animals are still there and it's now owned by Warners.

Having thought about it, the very thing that attracted me, ie the fact that it's just up the road, is now a negative thing - I want to drive somewhere new and be seen going to a rally!!
