Sam Lander Cars
The open morning on 21 April was a resounding success. Over 60 people attended from R3 and R7. Thank you so much to Sam and the team for taking the time to open their doors and welcome us all. From what I hear, Sam may have broken the record for the amount of breakfast butties generously provided, which makes me all the more sadder that I was unfortunately tied up with work commitments. Additional massive thanks go to Simon Poole, in the always-lovely 968, for organising and leading the R3 flock to Malton safely.

Impromptu events
A quick note for everyone regarding impromptu runs out. Several people have contacted me after some members have organised and completed some wonderful impromptu early morning runs when the weather has, on the rare occasion, showed signs of being favourable in the coming day or so. I can’t say enough how thankful I am to these members for taking the time and initiative to enjoy each other’s cars and company.

I know a lot of us have work or family commitments so, when some of these impromptu events happen, we can’t make them due to prior commitments. Please please please don’t think this is targeted at stopping people from attending, the reason we call them impromptu runs is exactly because that’s what they are... impromptu. The formally planned runs and events with route guides and convey etiquette rules will still be happening as normal, the impromptu runs are simply friends enjoying the Club and the beautiful Region we live in.

The only thing we ask if people do want to organise impromptu runs is they try not to do so when other Regional events have already been planned and organised. Any questions regarding this, please don’t hesitate to email me.
Club night
A reminder that Club night is the second Wednesday of every month and is held at the Stables restaurant, Beamish Hall Hotel, Beamish DH9 0YB. We usually gather around 7.30pm with a view to starting the meeting at 8pm. Feel free to come along earlier and enjoy the Club discount on food and drinks. Hope to see you all there very soon.
Don’t forget to keep an eye on the Forum for upcoming and impromptu events.
