Sunday 23rd June - Wilton Wake Up

[SiT]

Wondered if anyone else was going to Wilton next month, its a Best Of British theme, but its always a great day out especially if the weather plays ball! All proceeds go to Salisbury District Hospital 'STARS' which is equipment and treatment to treat children with cancer.

There are 4 of us going from Weston-s-Mare (3 VX220's and an Alfa 4C) so anyone else is welcome to join, kicks off at 8am although better to get there earlier ideally, shout up if you want to tie up and travel over.

What time you leaving Weston?
As I live The Lizard 😂

[moreflaps]

I'm in Bristol, what route are you taking and what time are you setting offf? I could bring a Lotus GT410

[SiT]

Hoping to get going early doors, leave Weston at 6.30, convoy to Wedmore to pickup another, then across to Shepton Mallet to collect another before travelling across to Frome and picking up A36.

The more the merrier!

Been looking at the map and, assuming you are taking the 361 from Frome, there's a layby on the A36 just after the Bell on Rudge Rd. and before the railway bridge and junction with Marsh Rd. I could be there -what time?

[SiT]

Yes that’s the plan, got one to meet in Shepton at 7.30 then heading across so guess it will be 8.15ish??

Just looked at map, we were going to turn onto A362 towards Longleat and then pick up the A36 just beyond Centre Parcs roundabout, it looked to cut off a corner??

After you get on the A36 after Longleat there is a large layby (approx 1 mile) where you can meet up with others

If i'm up I might join you if a yank motor is acceptable?

[SiT]

Of course, the more the merrier

Where are you meeting in Shepton? I'll tag along if I'm up in time - BMW M235.

[SiT]

No worries bud - the entrance road to Dobbies Garden Centre for about 7.30ish

Brilliant to meet you all this morning !
Must admit I'd never heard of this event but it was well worth the early start.
The breakfast and the company were fantastic, I'll definitely come to the next one

Be unique..buy a McLaren

Great meet with lots of cars to oggle. Next time I'll try not to be late Thanks for organising!

[SiT]

Great morning run out, nice to meet you chaps. It all seemed to be over so quickly and when I asked the lady what time those ‘inside’ arrived she told me 6.45 they started arriving - that’s quite keen in anyone’s book!

Will organise another one fairly soon





And my passenger on the way home........

There is the Haynes Breakfast meet on first Sunday of the month if you want another run out, next one is 2 weeks today

Think we were planning to go, did the last one which was blessed with sunshine and a good turnout
