August Evening Meet Proposal.

OK everyone here is my proposal for the August Evening Meet. We’re off into the Wolds !

The venue will be the Royal Oak in Little Cawthorpe, nr Louth. Drove up for a look and a chat, more on this later if we go ahead. Looks nice and has a big Beer Garden so if we are lucky with the weather again it will be nice to go Al Fresco, whoever he is ! Nice inside space, plenty of car parking and good selection of food and drink too. Will post up “sample “ menus in the Event Thread, assuming we get that far ! Quite posh, as it should be for us lot !

Oh yes, it has a free underbody car wash thrown in…….. Looks like there is an alternative route to avoid this if it puts you off but it’s not a problem, I went through it twice this morning.

Chose this location as it will be about the same distance for most of those that I hope will come along. ( But really hope that we get some surprise attendees along ! ) If you are new to the meets don’t be shy and just come along, we don’t bite, just drool a bit ! The conversations are wide ranging so you don’t have to be a car nut to enjoy the meet.

The Bank Holiday makes it a little difficult for me to just set the date as I’m sure that a lot of you will have other plans for the Holiday.

So the dates, either :-

Thursday, 20th August, full week before Bank Holiday.
Thursday, 27th August, week immediately preceding the Bank Holiday.
Thursday, 3rd September, week after the Bank Holiday.

My preferred dates are either 20th or 27th but I’m not worried about any of the dates really, will be along whatever.

Start time of 1900, gives people who have to work a bit more time to get sorted. Of course you can arrive earlier, as I probably will, or a bit later, no problems. Expect the meet to last as long as you want it to, no shame if you have to leave a bit earlier than most or you can stay until they chuck us out, no pressure, let’s be free and easy ! Be

Have a look at the link, decide what seems to be the best date and indicate your preference and interest on here. Unusually for me I’ll be democratic and go with the date that gets the most votes !

If you don’t like the idea at all then post here too, I wont be offended, too thick skinned for that !

I want to Post this as an Event by next Monday at the LATEST even if there are only a few people indicating interest ‘cos once it’s “ official “ people can “ book “ this night out with confidence that they won’t be sitting alone in a strange pub !

Lets all get a bit of Summer Evening fresh air and sunshine whilst we can. Get Posting !

That looks a nice venue Nige.I am obviously up for Septembers date (which I suppose ceases to make it an August meet !) due to annual holidays.May even be tempted to overnight it.

20th sounds good for me. Bit of a trek but I need to run the car in. Not sure about the "undercar wash". My GTV has the cup kit and nice low intake vents.... but hey, just recon' the engine again

Does seem very nice Martin.

Yeah, the Sept date seems like it may be too far off but I dunno, I'm happy to go with what most people want.

I really don't think anyone need worry about the ford, it is very shallow. I'll go and look at the maps and see if the " other " road avoids it all together.

The maps and Sat image made every thing clear as mud but it doesn't appear that there is a water crossing if you come the other way but I'm NOT sure.

Have a good look at the maps and decide !

EDIT.

Pretty sure that if you come off Top Rd onto Watery Lane and then Buston Lane you would avoid " The Splash. " And perhaps a bit of fun too !

Here are two of the Biblical things that I had to endure for you !

( The ford in this pic is NOT the one by the venue )

No I didn't get out of the car for these two pics, 'twas persisting down !

Cheers Mark, the 20th seems to be the one at the moment. I'll wait a little longer to see what others think.
