Events Calendar

Magnificent Motors

This was better than last year weather wise and we didn't lose our marquee. Saturday was the best day with Sunday having a few showers. The fund raising was slow but we all had a good time.

Eastbourne Arndale Centre

Once again this is our main event. We had the biggest tombola yet with over £800 of prizes on offer and this reflected in our takings the 3 day event raised £1,800 by the time we had some money donated by chocamour who come in with us.

New to this year

We have been invited to 2 charity football matches in Eastbourne to sell prize draw tickets so will be interesting to see how we do. dates are 21st and 22nd of July and Sunday 12th August with ex pro's from Arsnal coming.

Loions club event 15th July

We have been invited to their fun day on Hailshame reck. We will be setting up the Italian Job marquee and running a tombola to test the waters. hopefully the weather will be good and we do well

FESTIVAL OF TRANSPORT 25-27 AUGUST

After being put in a bad place last year we hope that we are placed in a better area this year for fund raising. The event it self is a good one and has a very good turn out of exhibitors and visitor alike.

MINI CRUISE 2nd SEPTEMBER

After my last cruise that was very well attended and liked I have organised another one. This will take us from Beachy Head to The Farmers Pub at Scaynes Hill where we will stop for 45 min's to re-group and have a drink. Then of to Hever and will stop again for 30min's to re-group and drink if needed before heading back towards Eastbourne stopping at Filching Manor for a ideal photo shoot and be treated to a tour of the private motor collection for £3 and if your up for it 15min's karting for £10. If that wasn't enough I have arranged a special price carvery at the star inn with reserved parking for £4.99 so come on join in. Meeting at Beachy Head car park to head off at 11.00

LAUGHTON 8-9 SEPTEMBER

Again this is a goodie with live music in the beer tent at night and a massive firework display at the end. The only problem is getting out we took over one hour last year to get out then all roads where blocked so just as well i have a electric fan to keep the engine cool.

Italian Job Run 26th Oct to 3rd Nov

This will be the 6th run in a row with my mini and hopefully will give me no trouble. We will be leaving on Monday 22nd October and taking our usual route through Germany into the tirol to attempt the Timmelsjoch mountain pass of 2,009 metres. The first leg we will be driving around 600 miles to get right down south Germany. After that we will be hoping to spend a day in the Mountains and taking lots for photo's and video too. After that we are staying at lake Garda before the dash to Venice where the event starts.
