Welsh Weekender

The wonderful Welsh weekender is rapidly approaching.

Saturday 23rd May sees the 3rd PCGB Anglesey Track Day. If you wish to attend this delightful day at what must be the prettiest race track in the UK, please contact Paul Grainger at Club Office on 01608 652911 as soon as possible as the event is filling up fast. Novices remain very welcome. If you have never done a track day before, there is no better opportunity to drive your car as Porsche intended and instructors will also be available to help you make the most of the day. A few full and half day places remain available. Spectators are more than welcome, free of charge and passenger laps will no doubt be on offer from many of the participating drivers.

The following day, Sunday 24th May, sees the return of the ever popular Porsches on the Prom. The event will take place on the North Shore Promenade, Llandudno and entry will be via the lifeboat access, directly opposite the St George's Hotel. Cars will start gathering from 10.30am and we will finish for 4.30pm. If your car suffers from any sort of leak, we would appreciate it if you would bring a drip tray or some form of mat, as an oil spill on the Prom is a definite "no-no". There is no fee for entrance and everyone is welcome. People will be attending from the length and breadth of the UK. There are plenty of eating places in Llandudno and, as an historic Victorian seaside resort, it is a fascinating town to visit.

With regret, parking on the Prom is for Porsche cars only, even PCGB members will not be permitted to park other marques in the line up, however exotic. If you are attending as part of a group and one of you is not in their Porsche for whatever reason, please alert them to this requirement to avoid any misunderstandings turning into disappointment.

For those wishing to make a long weekend of it, many PCGB members are also attending the Prestatyn Car Show on Bank Holiday Monday 25th May. See www.http://prestatyncarshow.blogspot.co.uk for more details.

Finally, if anyone planning to attend Porsches on the Prom is able to help myself and Arfor Jones meet, greet and park cars then please let me know "" regional@porscheclubgb.com.

I look forward to seeing you there.

I shall watch out for you in my rear view mirror... then enjoy the sound of your 964 flying by [:D]
 
Brilliant day out at Llandudno today. Thanks to all who organised, particularly for fixing the weather!
 
Although the day started out by being wet & windy, by 12 noon the rain had gone and the sun came out. It turned out to be a lovely afternoon as it does every year. I was a little disappointed by those who decided not to come because of the weather, but all in all a wonderful afternoon was had by all.

A total of 202 cars arrived on the prom and that coupled with a wonderful track day on Sat in Anglesey made for a tremendous weekend.

Thank you to everyone who made the effort to come. It was greatly appreciated and a particular thank you to Mandy and the gang from R9 for hosting the excellent fish & chip supper in Llandudno on Sat. night.

See you all next year

Warmest regards

Brendan Daly
Director PCGB.

Great day out at LLandudno.

If numbers where down slightly on last year that was due mainly to bank holiday week/end, ( people commit to family gatherings)

the selection of models was definitely broader, than last year,

well done. (local tourist board love it)

This was my first event with the club since joining two weeks ago and was a fantastic day on Sunday, many thanks for those who orginised the day, looking forward to future meets and especially the cologne trip in September.
 
Yes, indeed, the selection of models included three, that to my knowledge, we haven't had on the prom before:

An early (swb) 912; a 914/4 and the rare 914/6.

There was no 356 on the prom this year, although one has made an appearance in previous years.

Thanks to everybody for coming.

Arfor.

Well done to Rob and all those that helped make this a splendid event. Lots of early cars right up to the ones you can buy in the PC's today. Weather tunred out good, had a great time!

Rob - I note you must have left your car in the same parking spot for 12 months?[&:][;)]
 
Thanks John, I just got there early ;-)

Many thanks in particular to Arfor and Tony for all their help, others too and Brendan for making the arrangements with Mostyn Estates.

Thoroughly enjoyed both days, so many lovely cars and lovely people.
