Hi All, I have spoken with Chris and we agreed it is probably best not to have the BBQ at his place as there is limited space and lots of flammable stuff.
The good news is that I have managed to borrow this place
Proposed date : September 5, 6, 7th (Mainly the Saturday 7th)
It is slap bang in the middle of the New Forest and has some specially arranges rates for camping. There are also tipis, log cabins and even rooms in the house available for those who want to make a weekend of it. i am working on prices but it depends on numbers so please confirm you will be coming as soon as possible. All money goes to charity so if you book but don't turn up you are still saving the word.
Agenda for the Weekend (Work in Progress)
Friday
Arrive, pitch up, drink, eat your own food and share, talk bollocks and stuff
Saturday
11AM - Cruise across the New Forest
1PM - Lunch in a pub somewhere
Later - Factory tour of Tribute Automotives manufacturing plant with the opportunity to have a photo with the founder, placing orders
Later still - Back to Avon Tyrrell for a BBQ, cocktails on the lawn, beer by the lake, Pimms on the pedalos etc
Sunday
Nursing hang overs
Cruise to the coast *** Beaulieu Autojumble
Ice creams over looking the sea *** looking at the rust
Going home
I was thinking that we should make this open to all so that if potential Tribute owners or just interested people wanted to come they could. I was thinking we might get about 20 people there but I have reserved 600 spaces incase of unexpected demands.
Question : Do you want to pay for the BBQ on Saturday and get loads of stuff provided or do you want to all bring your own and cook it separately.
I would like to charge something like £10 to cover all food and cooking and bring your own booze but please let me know. There is a REALLY good chef there who we use for the Bike Bike Bash (
