Any of the options for me as neither is too far a travel for me :)

Vote for option 1 however I'm only 50% on this right now. Basically I already agreed to go to a drift event but it *might* not be happening anymore due to regulations.

I DO however, have this off work. Which is rare for me.

Either is good for me, Beamish is closer but I have somewhere I can stay in N.Yorks

Either one would do, haven't been to either for years and years.

Damm really wanted to come! But cant afford to drive to York. Cornwalls far from anywhere especially when you live right at the bottom of Cornwall and I was prepared to drive far but not to York. Always next year

Not so very long ago I had occasion to speak with a certain James, who in an unguarded moment
confessed that it might be necessary, ne' essential to remind him of certain tasks, started but as
yet unfinished.

Right yer bug** r - here's a reminder - 1st. & 2nd of September - WHERE ??? (yes I'm shouting).

Sorry folks, I mustn't have visit the thread since ignoring an update email a couple of weeks ago, now long since buried in the inbox...!

The ad for the VOC magazine is written, pending confirmation. On the Sunday, we'll be visiting the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, from 10 until approximately 3, when we'll move on to the North Yorkshire Motor Museum, just down the road. The NYMM is only small, and I think we'd struggle to fill any more than a couple of hours there, but it does give a little motoring interest, at least.

I am still waiting to hear back from the railway with confirmation that they'll be happy to have us, but we can pencil it in for now. I should have confirmation in a few days.
The activities for the rest of the weekend will be worked on 'shortly' ;)

cheers
