Hi all the meeting point to hand out the passes before we convoy into the show together is as follows---
The holiday inn Rugby A428, Northampton NN6 7XR just off the M1 JNC 18

i have read that the car park has a parking eye system that logs the number plate and will bill you but there is a nice long access road that i'm sure we can stop and give out the passes. Time wise we will aim to leave the meeting point at 9.15 so please ensure your there. Your welcome to my phone number if needed just drop me a pm.
Really looking forward to this show and the weather is looking great --we will be offering tea and coffee and a few treats as per usual. So pop a chair or blanket in the boot. cheers mike and yvonne.

Thats great news!! Im looking forward to meeting you all see you Sunday around 8.30 ish.
 
Ok folks the people that responded to my question about sending passes - yours are in the post and I’m not sending anymore out due to the short time before the show and Yvonne is in the office and unable to get to the post office.
Cheers mike
 
Quick note - if anybody wanted any bits from the Sciroccorrado Secret Stash you could save on postage if you let me know what you wanted on the relevant MarketPlace discussion post. I'll be there all weekend :)
 
Just to keep you all informed

I'm heading out there tomorrow lunch to start with the setup of the show.

One thing - REMEMBER YOUR SUN CREAM and a Hat! The weather forecast for Sunday is 21 degrees, but windy - it does get very windy on the show field (it's open countryside for miles) and it's very easy to not notice how hot your skin is getting.

The ground is very firm now, so ideal conditions.
 
Hi @a2sumo , very sorry but I wont be able to make it now as I'm, working nights over the weekend, sorry it's relatively short notice.

If there is any cost to you/the club for the pass I no longer need then please let me know and I'll be happy to reimburse whomever requires it :)
 
I'm sorry to post this but due to unforeseen circumstances today I won't be able to make this meet, on Sunday. I am gutted as I have had been looking forward to meeting other A2 owners and seeing their cars. I apologize to the club for any inconvenience this may have caused .
 
Hi all.
The meeting point is the same - Holiday inn rugby m1 jct 18. THE CAR PARK HAS A PARKING EYE CAMERA SO WHEN YOU ARRIVE POP INTO RECEPTION OR THE SOCIAL CLUB AT YHE REAR AND USE THE TERMINAL TO ADD “visitor” AND YOUR REG NUMBER. Failing to do this will result in a charge being sent to you.

Yvonne and I will be outside from 8.30 and we will all leave at 9.15. Drive safe and see you in the morning. Mike and Yvonne
 
A couple of quick photos from the show stand ... Boots on the ground. The club have a lovely spot next to the river :)

We had a lovely day today and enjoyed meeting up with friends both old and new. The temperatures reached up to 27 degrees in the cars....it was a scorcher !. The line up of A2,s looked great and I have never seen such a finer collection of vintage Volkswagens in one place. The A2OC stand had many admirers and opened up a new audience to the merits of our little aluminium gems.

A big thankyou as always to Mike and Yvonne and to Jeremy for organising our pitch in such a picturesque location. Sarges wife Nasra does make exceedingly good Samosas which went down a storm.

Hopefully we can arrange something similar for next year.

Cheers

Dave:)

What a day, thanks for a great show and day out Jeremy well organised and so much to do and look out really was impressed! mike and Yvonne thanks for having me, great turn out as normal so many different a2s and all I can say that was a hot hot day!!!!
 
What a fantastic day we had with the A2OC at Stanford Hall today. So much to see, lovely people and the weather!! Thanks so much to Mike and Vonnie. Hope you enjoyed your meal. Barry is now under his carport relaxing! Looking forward to seeing you all again soon. Such a lovely atmosphere.
 
Wow what a great show. Great weather helps but great company also makes a great social. Good to see some returning “new socialites”
During the day we had several public come over and expressed an interest in a2 ownership along with people coming over to say “I have an a2 and never knew there was an owners club” so more new members signed up.
Thanks for all those that came and made it a great day. 21 A2’s is a great turn out thank you.
We have a fold up chair that was left behind my yellow storm. It’s now safely on its way to Milton Keynes so get in touch if your missing a green fold up chair.
Great variety of classic vw’s - we will return next year if Jeramy will have us?
