None at the moment.....

The last one was a South Wales RS, and we had a vacancy for North Wales. So I guess we are open to a either a north & south or whole of Wales RS

Any takers please PM Simondi.......

However, any member can organise a local meet, it is just not covered by the Club's Insurance and the following disclaimer needs to be put on the opening post to the thread for any such meet....

Disclaimer...
Please be aware this is not an official 75 & ZT Owners Club meet and as such is not covered by the Club’s public liability insurance. Also the Owners Club take no responsibility for the meet/event in any way.


That is the way of the world we live in......

I did try and get a regular nano meet up and running but very little or no interest, so I knocked that idea on the head

The trouble is with Wales is that there are no easy routes, esp. from West Wales, it can take an hour to travel 30 odd miles

There may be more interest in 2-3 meets a year, as opposed to monthly ones. of course monthly ones would be better attended from the M4 corridor

Default Welsh members.

Thought long about this because i live so close, and you might think i am biased,but i would like to put forward that we could arrange a small meet at Bryn Bach park located on the heads of the valleys road. If you look on their website you will get some idea of what a pleasant day out, if the weather is good, it could be. there is cafe/restaurant on site 2 pubs just outside of maingate for those who need stronger refreshment. I would like to add this is a council run park with no entrance fee and i have no connection other than walking around lake 4or5 times a week.

Hi John,

That would be great, but please do start a new thread on the proposed meet, giving the details, location etc....

You will also need to add the following to the OP....

Thanks Andrew will make enquiries about what events they have planned later in year to see if members would like to make it a family day out or keep it as a car meet only. They have fun days, fishing and i think they still have a golf driving range.
John.
