....
The Wessex region will be joining The Rover 75 and ZT Owners Car Club at Kingston Lacey House, (NT) Near Wimborne Dorset on the 29th March at 11:00am. There will be an Admission concession price of £11.25 to the house if wanted and there is a restaurant there but we will need to know numbers attending a week before particularly of how many people are eating in restaurant. The grounds and gardens are well worth the visit.
The idea is an informal meet, with Old and not so old cars hopefully together, a “getting to know you” and general car viewing. It may finish with a run to “The-Classics-on-the-Prom” in Bournemouth.
Contact Chuck Berry, Wessex Region rep, to register in, before 20th March please.

UPDATE: I contacted Garry from the 75 & ZT Club and Kingston Lacy for an update and this is what is happening.
It would be good to arrive from 10:30 on the Sunday. We have been allocated a space in one of the overflow car parks - keep an eye out for some bunting.
In order to gain entry into the grounds or house, groups should congregate and book into at the reception together in order to have the reduced admission rate. NT members can use their membership of course.
The grounds close at 6pm, so there is no rush to leave.
All we need now is for Mother Nature to do her bit and shine on us!
Kindest regards,

www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/forecast/gcn8fzy5q
Knowing weather for-casters - don't rely on it too much!
I will be bringing some P5 brollies! and try out my new-to-me waders!!!
Those hoping to attend Mary & Chuck Berry
Steve & Jan White
Aidan Donegan
Will Irvine & Family
Keith Hardy
Eric Rice
John Buckle & family
Keith & Angie Lazenbury
Patrick & Jo Kelly At this rate there will be more P5's than 75's Any More?
If you're not going to the restaurant you don't need to book particularly if you are NT members.
See y'all there
IMPORTANT I have just found out something that for some could be disturbing....
Toilet facilities are only available inside the grounds. I am afraid this is out of our control.
National Trust Members are OK but none NT will be expected to pay the entrance fee to gain access to the toilets.
Kindest regards,
Mary & H. K. "Chuck" Berry: Regional Rep. P5 Dorset & Wessex Group
