Seeing as the wife will probably be away, me & the little man are pretty much a 95% cert, but you can never make any guarantees with kids & wives. Don't know if he'd be able to count towards the total though as he's only 3!

Im awaiting the car club information pack from the Motor Heritage Museum but I was thinking that if we are able what about some sort of informal picnic around the cars? I have no idea where they will park us yet Im hoping that will become clear when the pack arrives, my idea is if we know who is coming we can all bring some form of food and refreshments and stick it all in an open boot and help ourselves.

I do a few passable picnic dishes and could also introduce you all to some Polish food that i think you might like, as i said just an idea it could be something as simple as a few buttys and a couple of buckets of salad type stuff for the women folk like :wink:

thoughts please?

Not a bad idea. If we all bring enough to feed our own little clans + a little bit more, we should have enough altogether to share between us all.

thats what i was thinking, if we all bring our own eating irons and a bit more food we can stick it all in a big pile and tuck in, I will try and remember to bring some Polish beer over for the non drivers :cheesy:
