W.Kent May News

Hiya. I know, I haven't run a report now for a couple of months. Thatâ€™s really because, nothing much to say. Being cold and damp, the numbers are way down. By that I mean 6 to 8 members at each venue, so a good total, but if you want to know what the latest is, come to the meeting.
Right as I say things are picking up now so we should be out in that garden for meetings soon. The breakfast meetings (first Saturday and third Sunday) at the Woodman really picking up, and the lunchtimes atÂ the Woolpack start about now.
Couple of things coming up where Iâ€™m booking club pitches, Bodiam on the 16th June and Bexhill August bank holiday Monday. I need numbers asap to request the correct size pitch. Sorry, missed drive it day, but I was away that day. Chatham was so cold and uninviting that thatâ€™s a no show event now, but there is a new show on the 23rd of June (same day as Bromley) just south of Tonbridge. This replaces Bud of May which has gawn.
So we have the first show done, Detling. Booked a 6 car indoor pitch and the tickets went faster than Glastonbury. Colin and I arrive about 7.30 in cold bright weather, Ken just made it before the damp but Chris caught the first of the damp, that lasted all day, so great being inside. We actually squeezed a 7th car in, great to have a Herald soft-top next to Chrisâ€™s estate. With Spitfireâ€™s fromÂ Colin and Alan, Stag from Phil and my Dolly, cracking line up. May meeting are the 28th/29th May and all details are on the website,
see you all!!
