25th May 2014 - Scottish Italian Car Day - Cairnie Fruit Farm

[M21MFS]

Quick update folks - I was invited along to the organisers meeting again yesterday, all I can say is it's a fairly impressive site.

For those who mentioned that West Coast Rally had more family facilities on site, Cairnie answers these concerns. There are plenty of activities for the kids, although entry to the visitor centre is by seperate admission.

As per we'll have our 'zeebo, the legendary FS bbq and we can potentially get 3-4 tents on site as per normal.

In terms of location it's actually a LOT easier to get to than Hill of Tarvit. Though it's in the Cupar area I was no where near the main town yesterday.

We'll again be looking for a couple of members to help with marshalling again, but as per last year anyone who can volunteer an hour or two will be given an admission ticket for the event

Anyone else down for this?

 

[M21MFS]

Bumpety bump....as per scoop is anyone else up for this? Just realised Im still listed as maybe...work diary looks good so will be there!

Its always a good day out and although a new location again it should be one of the best sicd events yet!

Also...any volunteers available to help would still be appreciated!

 

[Marti155]

I have got days booked off Work so I will be there ad long as the car is going. I will be camping over as normal. Happy to volunteer or help with any thing that needs doing.

 

[Andi9386]

I'm still going, got the day off & have requested to work an early the day before.

There's a question over on FF about the times of this. I've said 10-4 as that's what it usually is but added in the past we've had to get there early to secure a space. With Cairnie being bigger is it going to be more like St Andrews with lots of room or do they still need to be on site sharp? And is 10-4 correct?

I should manage to get there with my panda

 

[Johno933]

I will be there......Lets hope the weather good, or i may get wet....

 

[lkc]

Good stuff both of you calumsthomson, do you want to go down as a definite or a maybe?

 

[calumsthomson]

Put me down as a definate! Wouldn't miss it for anything

 

[lkc]

That's what we like to hear. Will you be driving the Panda this year?

 

[gengis]

Can you put me down for a definite...although I'll probably be in the Lancia, if that's all right? Spider may be in the bodyshop.

 

[msb89]

done for you buddy

 

[Andi9386]

Can you put me down for a definite...although I'll probably be in the Lancia, if that's all right? Spider may be in the bodyshop.

Would be good to see the Lancia John, but if neither the Spider or Lancia are available, then far as I know you've still got Steve M's old Bravo.

I meant to add this earlier and got side-tracked.

Even if you aren't in the Spider ( ) please make sure you stop by the gazebo to check out the white board for all the various goings on. We'd love your presence for the usual group photo and other shenanigans that will be happening this year. oh yeah, and simply to say hello again

Apologies in advance if I drool over the Lancia

Quick question regarding Convoys.
I presume a handful of us will be meeting at the usual place (McDonalds Queensferry), if so what time.
I will be coming from Edinburgh rather than home, as I'll be staying at my Sister's flat next Saturday, just means I don't have to get up at yawn time of the day.

 

[steve119]

Crikey I remember the good old days when we used to be into double figure pages by now discussing convoys etc, where is everyone????

 

[lkc]

To be fair the Birthday Bash has taken up a lot of people's attention this year and detracted from the usual build up to SICD. However with just over a week to go it's time to start pushing this and getting numbers up. Thanks by the way for bumping the thread over on FF, much appreciated [attachment=1:2nl3bwko]thumb.gif[/attachment:2nl3bwko]

So folks, despite appearances we have been working on making this yet another great show. We've got a new venue, several new cars, a new FS gazebo, new banners plus our old favourite the bbq.

Who's all in?

Oh yeah, and there's a possibility that for the first time in years every member of admin attending will be in a fiat. you can't miss that!

 

[Marti155]

Every member in a fiat natural will never happen. Looking forward to the event. only a week to go better get the radiator fan on the panda working. I suspect the coolant temp sensor.
