    Firstly happy new year and welcome to 2017. After the weekends meet and chat it's that time of year to start thinking about the coming show season and as such this will be the first show that NMS will be attending south of the border in 2017.
    In order to get things organised for the club stand I'm looking to see who's interested in attending.
    The show this year will be held on Sunday 2nd July 2017 and it's our intention to head down on the morning of Saturday 1st and come back after the show finishes (usually around 4pm).
    Anyone attending is free to pop down for the day and attend the show if they'd rather and don't feel pressured into staying down the Saturday night.
    The show is held at Lytham St Anne's and NMS have attended the show for the past few years (even winning best club stand in 2015).
    Accommodation has not been arranged yet but I'll try and sort out the same hotel as previous years which is literally a few miles away from the venue and it has secure parking.
    The only downside is that i will require firstly for you to confirm that you're going and secondly i would be needing around a £20 deposit (non refundable) to reserve a room. Please also let me know what kind of room you'd prefer (twin or double) and I'll see what I can sort out.
    Once I have numbers I contact the hotel and confirm the price/deposit. As in previous years the number of rooms is limited so please don't delay, check your diaries and don't be afraid to join in the fun.

    The hotel has private parking and more importantly an outside tap so there's no need to worry about you not having a clean car before you head down.

    Don't worry if you've never been to a show before there are a number of regular show goers and we'll all lend a hand getting the cars organised and sorted.

    All confirmed details will be added to this first post as and when they become available or are confirmed. Entry to the show is usually pay on the gate and is around £5 (from memory)

    1. Davy & Cat (2 Cars) - paid in full (D)
    2. Pete - deposit paid (T) - paid in full.
    3. William & Megan (2 Cars) - paid in full (D)

    D - Double T - Twin

    UPDATE 06.01
    I've contacted the hotel and we can be accommodated at this time. The cost of a double / twin room has been held once again for us at £75. There are no single rooms available for this date. This price does include breakfast. If everyone could confirm as soon as possible that they are happy with this then I'll go ahead and book rooms accordingly just let me know the room type you want. I do however require a £20 deposit (non refundable) as previously mentioned before I book your room.
    We have in the past enjoyed a great evening meal and made our own evenings entertainment so once the cars are sorted you can relax and there's no need to go anywhere.
    Rooms are extremely limited and I need to confirm with the hotel asap the booking. Sorry for the rush but I don't want us to miss out ...
    UPDATE - phone call from the hotel saying people were trying to book rooms on line so I've reserved rooms for the people with names above. If folk could get the deposit to me asap I'll confirm your respective room. Any questions fire away ...

    UPDATE 28.06
    Rendezvous at Abington 10:30 and then head down to Lytham, hopefully get down there about 2ish. Gives us plenty time for any hold ups and to get the cars clean for the following day, plus a couple of refreshments and dinner :)

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    I will be there even if I have to walk to Lytham.

    There is some "unfinished business" that I need to sort out from last year.

    Yes, you know who you are.
