Hollow Tree Meet Sunday 20th April 2014

[rich17865]

Our next arranged monthly Sunday meet will be on the 20th April at 12pm at the Hollow Tree in Stretton.

Come one, come all, everyone is welcome

My family and I will be there to get some food, I will as usual have my tools and the T4 with me.

Come along, bring the family, there is an indoor and outdoor play area, it makes for a nice Sunday out!

Please don't turn up and leave without finding us, send me a PM and I will let you have my phone number in case you cannot find us.

Please be aware that regional meets are not official 75 & ZT Owners Clubs meets and as such are not covered by the clubs public liability insurance.
Also the Owners Club take no responsibility for the meet in any way.

[vindaloo]

You do realise that's Easter Sunday?

[rich17865]

Nope, I doubt the pub will be closed, I will check.

[vindaloo]

No it won't be closed but I guess not many will turn up. Can't really move it to week before as that's the National.

[Godfer]

Liverpool away to Norwich on TV, midday KO. I won't be there! :duh:

[DennisA]

Didn't know you were a Norwich fan Sid, only joking the accent is a dead giveaway?

Still luckier than me, I'm from Fulham and went to the Cottage a lot as a kid when they had Johny Haynes and Bobby Robson up front, but then decided to take up rugby, but I'm not biased - I don't mind who beats Chelsea!

Or Wales at rugby for that matter - didn't we do well yesterday!

Just a little bump for this, I guess as this is Easter Sunday it may be awkward for some to make this, but why not bring the family for a meal, all welcome.

[Stephen wade]

Stephen, Rich will have his T4 with him, I suggest you get it properly checked out whilst there (you need to PM Rich to sort a cost, I know it'll be reasonable) and well worth it!

You can also have some dealer options enabled\dis-enabled :D

[montego bob]

Hi, I'd just like to thank you all for making me so welcome on Tuesday. I really enjoyed the night and it was great to see so many 75's (and ZT) in one place! Sorry to Robert and Jim who I met in the car park when I arrived but I never got chance to chat again during the evening.

I'll be coming along on Easter Sunday and I'll be bringing my wife and two youngest kids so I'll see you then.

Thanks again
Rob

[vindaloo]

It was great to meet you too Rob, hope we didn't put you off with our 'friendly banter' about some of your favourite cars! Pleased that you will be coming on Easter Sunday and bringing the family. There are usually a couple of other SWMBO's at the Sunday meets.

[fusilier50]

hi got there 1pm didt see any one else so left

did you check the little carpark to the left side of the pub? Most of us were there til around 4pm.

we might want to get our own sign to put out with a big arrow.

As we have had problems with new members finding us in the past here is some useful information to point you in the right direction.

Location:
We have kindly been able to get the use of the car park at the Hollow Tree pub in Stretton WA4 4LX. It is just off junction 10 of the M56. As you join the A49 towards Whitchurch from the M56 roundabout, immediately take the right hand lane as the turning into the car park is about 100 yards on the right.

As you turn into the car park, you have to turn right towards the pub, there is then a turning on the left into another car park, we are in the bottom of that car park out of the way of the pub goers.

Where's your priorities, Stephen?:D

Hope everything went well. Grandaughter or grandson?:}

I think Rich's attempt at retrofitting a roof-mounted video screen in 10 minutes could have done with a little more planning.:getmecoat:

Nice pics as always Jim. For once it looks like saloons outnumbered Tourers. :D:

It drops down from the roof when the sunroof is opened. Unfortunately it ends up on the floor :D
