2017 Event - the DOC does Blackpool! |

Dear All,
discussions were had at the NEC about what to do about an event for 2017, taking into account the Club's commitment in 2009 to move the annual meet up around the country to make it fair on all members to have a chance to get to an event near them - back then, the national meet up, which always happened in the same place, was often a PITA for folks from further afield to get to, so that's why the decision was made to have an national event in a different part of the country each year where possible. So far, we've been to Shropshire, Derbyshire, North Yorkshire, Dorset, Northants/Bucks and Norfolk.
For 2017, the idea had been muted to combine a national event with an established car show or gathering. Mike Hutchinson, who has connections in the TV/Film car business, suggested we join in with the big TV/Film car meet up in Blackpool in August 2017. There seemed to be a great deal of enthusiasm for this event, which will also celebrate 35yrs of Knight Rider. An idea was suggested to do something round St Anne's on the Saturday, the Saturday evening descend on Blackpool's 'Golden Mile' and parade the cars up and down, have a fish n chip supper, and then the rest of the evening is free to spend how you wish. On the Sunday, there will be the main car meet itself, with DeLorean's, KITT's, Trotter Van's, Starsky & Hutch cars, etc etc.
All in all, I reckon it'll be a fun weekend, although Mike did say that Blackpool is unbelievably tacky, but meh, who cares, its all about getting together and having a good laugh.
Mike will be adding more to this thread in due course as dates are known, myself and Mary Hooper will also be assisting with sorting out the event, although I will be taking more of a back seat this time round, as I've got too much here to sort out, including building work and the small matter of a dead engine in my own DeLorean.
So everyone, get behind Mike on this one, put on your best 'Kiss me Quick' hat, and lets make Blackpool 2017 a great success !

Dec 2016 East Midlands Xmas meet? |

Any interest in a pre-Xmas meet up? Thinking maybe of something with a Premier Inn/Travelodge attached for anyone who wants to travel from afar (Ben?) and stop over.
It would have to be a weekend in December, so if I can gauge interest on here first, then I'll look into booking a table somewhere.
I know Paul Birks is interested in a get together, so hopefully something can be sorted out.
