PHEA Honington Families Day, Wednesday 29 July 2009

[bigtalljim]

For all of you who attended this little meet last year I have been asked to organise the same again even though no longer in the RAF I have kept contact so its nice to be asked back.
Appentley last time we stopped everybody in their tracks when we turned up in convoy, and the event raised a lot of money for the Help the Heroes and Air Ambulance.

So I will gladly organise another show if I can get enough people who want to come along again, and new commers more than welcome. The more the merrier.

If I could ask the usual suspects to help with stickies and throwing the net as far and wide as possible for me. (DAZ and Simpo to name but two).

I think last year we managed about 16 cars or so, if we can better that then it will be great.

Will pass on more news as I find out, but will be the same as last year with a big pitch to arrange the cars on.

I have asked about the runway again, but at this short notice prob not, but they interested in a go at it another time.

So please come along, get the day off work and enjoy a good laugh for a good charity.

cheers

I reckon I'll come along to this if I can skive off work.

[viper kev]

I'd like to come, have to see how things shape up nearer the time

[bigtalljim]

Forgot to mention that it is only for a few hours approx 12 - 4pm like last year. I will arrange a meeting point and time nearer the day.

Jim

I've booked the day off so will be there. Was a good afternoon last year - particularly the free beer!

[bigtalljim]

Its a start with a few names. I need to pick up the speed on this a bit and let the organsers know if I can bring along a few more vehicles and drivers. I think we had 18 last year so come on all you bods in fast cars get the day off and join the fun.

The 88 rules.

Sorry can't make this year due to other plans, bit gutted as last year was a really good day out.

Let's hope that we can do the runway thing in the future as this would top the day off a treat, just need to put the health ans safety people in the cupboard for a few hours so they don't notice us having some fun and raising money for charity too.

[prmoldoaks]

Yes Count me in on this one please.

It will have to be the Porsche as the GT has been sold sorry guy's

It now lives in Germany

[bigtalljim]

Good to see the numbers are growing, thought for a while it was going to be a tough job getting cars.

I intend to meet up at same place as last year as it provided a good blast up before meet.

It was the Hotel opposite the Sainsburys round a bout in Bury. Symonds Rd I think it was on.

They want us at the show for 12 ish so we should meet up by 11.30 to group up and roll out. I think our entrance was liked by all last year.

Darren/Simo, can we organise the Piston Heads banner for this one please?

Darren has the high banner and I have the low one (which is probably more suitable on a windy airfield). You're welcome to collect either, geography permitting!

Think I have found the meeting point on the map, but can someone supply a post code?

I believe it's IP32 7DZ.

[baptistsan]

Being a bit thick. Anyone care to explain what this is all about?

[baptistsan]

Okay after a bit of digging found the thread from last year. Happy to turn up, assume a bog standard 911 is okay? Assume details of when/where we are meeting will be confirmed some time soon?

I'll bring along the tall banner, Jim.
If it's too windy, we can have it at "half-mast" like it was at Kimbolton

[prmoldoaks]

So is it 11.30am, the old Butterfly hotel Car park - Bury st Edmunds?

Thanks
