Ashby Folville - 13th June - Picnic on the Cricket pitch

impmad2000 · Post by **impmad2000** » Wed May 03, 2006 8:57 am

Every 2nd tuesday during the summer, The Carrington Arms in Ashby Folville hold a classic car night, cars start to arrive from about 6:00pm and there is usually everything from 1900 to modern Kits.
The turn out is something to see, cars from every era, and some wild and exotic. Prepare to be "just another 911"

This is a must for every classic car enthusiast, pack up some folding chairs and a small picnic; come and see how the Leicester folk do classic car meets. The Pub usually has a hog roast or something, and drinks of course, but just take the time to wander among the cars.
Lets make the June meet a DDK gathering.
Who's in ?

A quick reminder for those at Ace Cafe last night.
And a nudge for the Northerners... We are promised some of the southern DDK contingent ! See you guys there

Actually, this is about dead centre of the country what about the East and West contingent too

This really is an impresive classic car meet, lets see a big turn out

Hope to see you there Tim.

Sounds like a good excuse for a pre Le Mans run out, even if I will have been to Scotland in it the weekend before

I'll also try to drag up my '75S owning friend from the 'South'

Right, 1 week to go and I think some of you need a reminder.
I've got some southerners coming up, so who from up north is going to make an appearance ?
Ian ? James ? PMJT ?
This is a big classic car meeting, Loads to see - Everything from steam traction engine to pimped rides

! , and if you are into classic bikes, they are usually stacked right up the street as far as you can see !
Come on guys'n'gals , you will enjoy this

Hi Tim,

If the weather plays ball I should be there, and just you all keep an eye open for the boys in blue, snap, snap, nudge, nudge, no what I mean.

I drove through the village yesterday, lovely place. It'll be a great evening, especially if the weather is as good as it's supposed to be.

Is it held on the village green/cricket ground opposite the pub?
