..... Weekend of driving, beer and laughs ? .... Isn't that what we do quite a few times a year anyway but usually up North or in Europe where the roads are actually a pleasure to drive ;)

Classics at the castle is what it is , we'd be worse off without it

I really enjoyed the day. I was trying to explain it to a colleague today and said as important as the cars and as interested as I am in seeing them it's the opportunity to catch up with friends that made my day

DDKamp.

http://www.gosfieldlake.co.uk/camping.html is 5 miles away from Hedingham and has a pub next to it. We could go the day before for, sleep there for £8 and get sozzled. There's even a big lake to throw left4dead in when he doesn't stop going on about regretting swapping his car for a house.

Nice to see some pics of the event as been on holiday I did miss it on the 5/6 times I have been it has grown in size and popularity and for me has become a bit of a Pcgb jewel in the crown event for the top knobs of that club I have been a member of afore mentioned for almost 4 decades but never has an atmosphere like the events we do in this little band of brothers as mark says drinking (I don't do that like) and the sporting driving the people in what we call our northern group which also includes a few southern imports always have a fantastic time and the Scotland trip we just had was brilliant catc is a long boring run down the a1 to look at stunning cars I ain't ever going to own I would rather be ragging it round the back roads of wherever it happens to be cheers peter (took me 15 mins to type that shite ha ha hope to see you all soon)

Still time to get another run in before the weather turns . Pick a point on a map with decent roads and a pub for the night .

I enjoy Hedingham a lot but I wouldn't swap it for weekend on the road with my mates .

( Fek me Pete , your on form today . All that time away with the Missus done your head in ? )

No. I don't think so. That doesn't sound like something I'd do.
