Oh No! Not ANOTHER Minor event with no dogs :-? Two in one year. It must be a conspiracy, surely :roll:

Thank you Trevor for the post! :-)

An update! Less than eight weeks to go to the Hop.
This year the rally is being held at the Rare Breeds centre and
entry to the rally includes free entry to the rare breeds centre
for up to two occupants of each car entered.

Entry forms and more information on the rally can be downloaded from
the hop website

www.kenthop.co.uk

Book soon to avoid disappointment. As always entries are limited.

See you there!

cheers John

Do they have a farm shop?
Rare breed sausages are delicious :)

Hi Marky,

I'm not sure about the farm shop but would be very tasty if we can get some.

Best to contact the venue http://www.rarebreeds.org.uk

By the way, entry to the rare breeds centre is £9.95 so entry to the HOP is a bargain as that includes entry for two people per car to the Rare Breeds Centre.

Hi All
I have been told,that Dogs might be allowed in the car show field on a lead,but not the Farm complex?
My advice,would be to ring The Rare Breeds Centre direct,as I would not want to mislead anyone.
kind regards
Trevor

That is right, Trevor, Dogs are sadly not for obvious reasons not allowed in the farm itself.

The Hop is almost upon us! Even my girlfriends kids want to go as they have had a look at the Rare Breeds Centre website and it looks a great place to visit, and in addition to that you get to go to one of the South Easts biggest Morris Minor meets.

Oh, and the weather looks glorious for tomorrow.

I'm going to have two of my cars there!
