What's a good arrival time, assuming we would prefer to park up together?

Hi Eric

You want to be there before 9:00 it is going to be very busy, it is the Old English Car Clubs AGM for all of BC and there will be a lot of fine British Automobiles in attendance. The show gets better each year, last year they were very close to locking the in-gate. The field was almost full, this year that may happen. (weather dependant of course).

Here's a little info on what we are talking about for those of you who have never gone to it . Brits on the beach Sunday July 9th 2017

Have fun I will not be there this year.

I'll be there with the 110, dust, dents and all! Planning to be there around 9AM.

Any of the rover crowd interested in a beer and a burger after the show at my place in Ladysmith let me know. All are welcome, BYOB but I'll supply burgers and pop. Note: LUCKY beer is not permitted on the premises.

Cheers, Rob

Hi Rob

We will miss most of the show, but show up for the Bar-B-Que.

On another note following you out of the shopping mall today, your left rear brake light is very weak maybe 2 or 3 candle power and the right side one although bright flashes in sympathy with your left rear signal light. I kind of hated to bring this up knowing how many hours you have put in trying to fix the wiring problems but belter to know.

At least your rover runs.

See you Sunday Victor 1962 Dormobile
