Not fun when your wet and your car is wet . I have been so lucky as I only had a drizzle on the car and not had rain yet .
Nightmare for everyone, including the small businesses that are there selling food and kids entertainment
Online BBC Weather forecast was completely wrong with their rain times

I am asking others that I know, if they are interested in August and or September meets, and should know this time next week.
If you can confirm your preference asap that will help too
Thanks

I went past sparkford Haynes about 12.45 so took 3hrs 45mins as the traffic was built up a bit at Stonehenge so to meet up at 7.30am I would have to leave 4am ish . So I think it’s a no from me . But it’s a great little museum and if you have never been well worth a visit .

I can go September if it suits others , there's a local show in August if we move it so it'll suit me too.

Ok Rob
Sept 2nd; incorporating Rare Breeds

Possible meeting points @ 07.30. We should be able to park in the main carpark at this time, otherwise it will be the overflow grass area!
Approx 1 mile away
https://www.mylpg.eu/stations/united-ki ... DB476FCEAC
Approx 6 miles away

Either of these suit me, but check your route to see if easier to meet outside Haynes.

Hi Andy,
Either of the meeting points suit me, but the services at Podimore has much more parking space available. That might be more convenient.

Podimore Services or the Podimore Esso Forecourt suits me too Andrew, as it will a few locals that hopefully come along

It seems like all the old memories of going in to a little chief / Happy Eater has gone and it’s a posh coffee shop with a small cake that’s about £5 .
