Pershore Plum Festival Car Show

Post by Topcat Tomcat »

Just an early reminder that the above will again be held on August Bank Holiday Monday.

Book early to avoid disappointment, as there are only 182 days to go!

Apologies for the late reminder

If anyone is interested in attending this excellent car show, entry forms are available on the Pershore Plum Festival website.

The cost is £8 per car, with all proceeds going to the upkeep of Pershore Abbey.

I’m hoping to attend with two vehicles, but I need to get a move on, as the cut off date for entries is the 31st of July. Sorry.
:oops

I might be, I am trying to find the latest arrival times (8am is a wee bit early!) and departure times!

It’s site access from 08.00. I usually arrive about that time and walk home for breakfast and to make my sandwiches!

People are often still arriving at 10.00, which isn’t a problem as there is plenty of room in the park. Late comers just end up at the edges, so they don’t have to drive through the crowds!

People start leaving about 15.00, although I seem to remember that you can leave earlier if you inform one of the Stewards.

It was good to talk to you this afternoon. It’s always good to put a face to a name.

I was also interesting to see the differences between the Rover R8 and the Honda version. And I learnt a few things as well!

It was a shame that there were only about 650 cars this year, but I guess a lot of people are having to cut back on their spending at the moment.

Perhaps next year, one or more of the various Rover clubs might be officially represented?

Yes, it was nice to see you, sorry I had to disappear off, we'd booked the tower tour at 1530! Most of the Concerto is the same as the Rover, it's mainly cosmetic, though that does pose problems when trying to get certain spares!
