Would any members be interested in attending a regular monthly meet up in Lincolnshire? I have a venue in mind with a decent size car park as well as snack bar and toilet. I have already arranged 1 regular meet there (Skoda) and we are having the 1st meet tomorrow.
The venue would be the Waddington Aircraft Viewing Enclosure (WAVE), situated on the A15 between Lincoln and Sleaford, opposite RAF Waddington and Avro Vulcan XM607.
I am just gauging whether there would be enough interest before going ahead with organising anything.

Bit cold there this time of year, might be worth venturing somewhere inside until the sunshine plays nicely again.
Providing I have no work commitments I would attend, although it would be in a modern as my only road worthy current retro is my VFR400, although my 95 Disco might be a better idea if the weather man gets it right lol.

Some days you just need to take a grinder to an inanimate object, just to make your day a tiny bit better!!

Sounds good to me although the cafe a bit further up the road towards sleaford might be a bit warmer?

The reason for choosing the WAVE, is it is run by a friend of mine who is struggling for business at present, due to the fact that RAF Waddington's runway is being replaced, so all the aviation enthusiasts are not visiting due to there being no activity on base, The cafe down the road gets plenty of passing trade, but John's takings at the Sentry Post are down over 85% since the runway work started, and those go on for approx 15 mths.

I'm moving to Lincoln in the new year, so I'd be more than happy to come along to a meet (to meet new people) and buy some tea and cake/coffee and a bacon butty. '96 T4 camper retro enough? it's that or a 2002 Caddy (or a 2013 Yaris.....)

Good on you for helping your mate's business. I'm about an hour away and often have something interesting. Being frank; I don't want to stand in a wet car park looking at a handful of ordinary-ish cars, but if the sun is shining and you've got some interesting cars coming then I would make the effort with something cool. Good luck!

Interested. But with the heavy military and civillian police in the area, because idiots think they can jump the fence to protest about the unmanned drones being launched from there, it'll probably end up in everyone getting moved on unfortunately.
