As you may know, the 'PH Roadshow' started last year and provided a lot of entertainment and things to see for all those who came along to show off their shiny steeds.

It's time to take entries for the first of this year's events, East Anglian Practical Classics, at Easton Farm Park on Sunday 19 June. This was our debut event last year - the first time we turned out to fly the 'Smiley & Pistons' - and we had 12 cars on the stand, which was a superb turnout for a new outfit.

Like most of the events we do, there are other things going on as well, so even if your 'other half' or children are not petrolheads they can still enjoy the day. Easton Farm Park is a well known activity zoo with lots of cute animals, falconry displays, blacksmithing, crafts, music and a beer tent as well :-) There are several places on-site selling food, or you can take a picnic if you prefer.

Entry is free if you have a suitable car to show. Even if you don't, you can still come along, say hello and enjoy the day. I need to book places so please let me know if you'd like to come and join us.

You can see more of our fortcoming events at www.phea.co.uk and click on the PH Roadshow button.

Im up for that, if I'm not at Le Mans.

My aunt told me about some classic + sports car show which is on in the region soon, I'll have to find out which one it was.

Well you've got 7 weeks to spend your Griff proceeds on something nice!

Great stuff Wayne, thanks for that and I look forward to seeing the new beast. Or if you still have the Noble, bring both

I missed the sound of that V8 unfortunatly the Noble is two cylinders short of a real engine.

The new car has had the pre-cats removed too ! It sound bl**dy gorgeous.

I may get the front end sprayed and twin headlight conversion done by sending it to Webbs Autos in Bristol.

See you at the next FF meet in May.

Too far for me but some 'northerners' like Ian and Neil might be interested - why not post some more info?

Hi,
this is where the info for the event is, I just rang the number and got some info through. They send you details on other events too that may be local to some others as they appear to be organisisers of many events. It cost £5 for a car to enter, the money has to be sent before the event, so if it rains youve lost a fiver, www.bromleypageant.co.uk/easternpageant/

Arse. Never mind, if you've got a friend with a suitable car, persuade him to go, then blag a trip with him using your pass

My car won't be back from the bodyshop in time otherwise I'd gladly have taken up one of the spaces.
Is it a similar format for the Rougham event ie/ a PH cordoned area for us to show our cars?
Would like to attend that one, do I send money to yourself?

Hi Zippee: yes, the format is the same for all shows - a reserved area for the cars plus PH banners front and back - and you're welcome to attend any or all of them. Most are free to enter if you have a suitable car, eg your TVR will do fine. Just mail me with the ones you'd like to go to, it's as simple as that
