Let's do late August - would be good to get in before the move, and Ray can make that too

Got a reply already ....

I also asked about the move (whether they were upsizing or downsizing) and mentioned our larger annual meets ....

Hi Mark,

We would be able to accommodate a garage tour late August although it might need to be over two sites as the garages might be moving first. We would need a minimum of twenty people to book a private garage tour, please let me know if this is still of interest and we can start to look at dates.

Our new site will be slightly larger. Your club meets during the summer, for next year of course, would be something which we would be happy to accommodate. If we know that there is an organised club tour then we will be able to arrange a small amount of indoor parking space, we would just ask for as much prior notice as possible to ensure that there are no other bookings scheduled for that date.

Regards,
Sarah

Good result - for both potential meets. It's good to talk

Great

So do we have a preferred latter-half-of-august date? .... and who's coming?


We should probably plan a little drive or two too .... into the Peak District perhaps?
