Hi,i know am only a new member of the club,but i did find billing a little lacking in atmosphere,perhaps its the security thingy stuff on the gate ,never been to wicksteed park,so is it a better place,more friendly?but will still come to the show,as got to bring the shield back,just hope the weather is a little kinder this year,see you all soon I think the weather dragged it down a bit last year.

On a a sunny day with more than double the cars there is a great atmosphere among members and there friends at the National meeting,2015 was as bad we have experienced since the late 90's when we had a washout weekend .

Harvey and I do appreciate the input from a number of members on the subject of the AGM location. However you may have noticed on Harvey's most recent post, listing the Annual Show Calendar we have decided to stay with Billing for at least another year, so 23/24 July 2016 is confirmed at that location. A number of reasons - it is a known, centrally located venue - not really practical at this stage to start negotiations with other alternative sites - and that would probably fall to Harvey who has plenty to do, the reason why and it is only a very small gesture to help him, that I am posting this note.
As you may have seen unfortunately we still await some volunteers to offer help. We have had a much appreciated offer on PR to help promote the Club but nothing for an Events organiser or Webmaster. We do appreciate some constructive comments on the way forward and realise of course the commitments that members will have - work, family etc. We do have retired folk like me, in the Club, with some time to spare but often little or no computer skills and decreasing energy and mobility levels to roam the country. But we live in hope!

The only discount offered is for camping, this year once again Billing events team has changed staff several times in 12 months, I have found them difficult to get a hold off,and I personally feel that next years AGM will most likely be held at another venue, as will be discussed at the AGM

I tried to ring them twice today (well yesterday) to find out how much it will cost us to get in on Sunday. Their website says std entry is £5 per car, BUT could be more for certain events. ie thay make it up as they go along.
I have asked them via Email for clarification on how much it will cost to get in.
