Thread: UK get together!

This has rumbled around the 'Newbies' section for quite a while now and needed either pushed or buried. It's getting pushed!

The title explains all, the venue was thought best to be midlands area - maybe Castle Donington, very handy for East Midlands airport (Ryanair return from Inverness £30 on a good day!). Time yet to be decided but probably best into summer and venue to be found. I have offered to locate a venue, get prices and do a fair bit of the organising - it's in my interest because I have things I want to learn apart from socialising of course! And I like distractions from my real work...

What is needed is an idea of who would be interested but also importantly a few offers of demos etc. - a honing workshop, collections, perhaps a couple of pics of members favourite razors to put on a powerpoint and we can all relate why it's the best! Restoration basics etc. From this angle we really need senior members willing to come along and impart their knowledge. Just a couple of seniors jumping on the wagon would really help to get it going.

So - offers of 'on the day' wee demos please if poss. An indication of support otherwise and after, that if it seems like a go-er, I can pin down either a hall or hotel etc and get prices and dates in order to finalise through a poll. Evening entertainment for overnighters will obviously be crucial and no expense (time) will be spared in finding the best pubs and the best grub to round it off.

cheers
