Guys,

In North Licolnshire, in the town called Brigg (Off the M180 at Scunthorpe) a Sports & Classic Car show is being held. Its being presented by Jeremy Clarkson and Tiff Needle.

A few Ferrari's, TVR'S, Lotus's and Lambo's locally are already attending the show. If anyone wishes to attend call 01724 724406 and speak to Cliff Wood. Its been reported by the local press that between 10,000 to 20,000 people will be attending. Many clubs are meeting up at this event.

It will be a great day....

Good roads to get there too guys, either quiet stretch M62 towards Hull and over the Humber Bridge, which is pretty impressive if you've never had cause to go across... or quiet M62 across to a usually even quieter M18 and then onto a virtually dead M180! Stretch the legs a bit

This may be getting a little confusing.... so:

The main topic of this post is the big do at Brigg on Sunday August 8th.

There is however an evening do tonight, July 27th, still at Brigg, meeting in the town centre market place (Brigg isn't that big, you'll find it!) along the same lines of Beverley a few weeks back I presume. This one kicks off at 6.00 - 6.30 until about 9.00 - 9.30 and is just a get together of local classic and sports cars.

If it's anything like Beverley, there were about 70 or 80 cars there.

Sadly, I can't make Aug 8th as we're in Spain and probably not tonight as I wouldn't be able to get there until 8.30! ... however, I am playing out with the big dogs tomorrow
