3ma15

[Thotos]

I would like to suggest that 3ma15 should be 27th to 30th May 2015.

So the main idea of this rather over-stretched and long post is to get both suggestions for 2015 and 2016 but also and more importantly volunteer(s) to organise 3ma15 and 3ma16. If all else fails I'll end up organising 3ma15 in Wales by recycling one of a number of Lancia events I attended in Wales   and I'm sure you'd all want something better and of course better organised than the rather chaotic meeting that promises to be if I organise it    

With the NEC Classic Motor Show done and dusted, our attention will be turned towards 3ma15. While little has been said about 3ma15, a lot of organising has already taken place behind the scenes and full details of 3ma15 will be announced soon. The good news is that Hero member Phil has stepped forward and taken on the mantle and the thankless task of organising 3ma15. The dates have now been fixed as already suggested from Wednesday 27th May to Saturday 30th May 2015.

Our base will be Llangollen, a small town in Denbighshire, north-east Wales,  situated on the River Dee and on the edge of the Berwyn mountains. Llangollen has something for every visitor with an astonishing range of caf?s, bars, hotels, restaurants and a wealth of independent shops to browse and interesting places to visit.

We have offers from two hotels which we are considering and details of our chosen hotel will be announced soon once we finalise the best deal we can get.

Further details to follow soon.

Having finally got out of teaching I may just be able to make an appearance

Spend 2 years in Llangollen on my boat - it's very very nice up there even I might turn up 😄😄

Great news it's earlier in the year, and doesn't clash with anything, so I tend making my way to my first one

Thanks Theo for putting all the hotel information onto the site.

There?s not a huge amount to report at the moment, I have planned three days driving and have the basis of an idea for the last day.

Tansy and I are going to stay at the hotel next weekend, when we will drive the routes to make sure everything works and I will provide updates after our stay at the Wild Pheasant Hotel.

quoto :Our reserved rooms are block booked for the 3ma dates (5 nights from 26th to 30th May 2015)

 so can 1 or 2 nights be booked at that rate ?

Yes, of course you can do that

Hotel booked and getting on to sort out ferry....

That is great news Heini, I think you are the first to book this year

If any one decides to take the overnight boat from Holland to Harwich, let me know you are all welcome to have breakfast at my house (1/2 an hour from the ferry) before setting off to 3ma.

What ever ferry crossing you decide on I am sure we can arrange a meeting point for a 131 convoy.

It will be DFDS Seaways, Dunkerque-Dover

A quick update for you all, we have had a great day doing one of the planned 3ma15 drives, the sun was shining, the scenery great and the driving was fantastic, which I am sure will be even better in our 131's

A few photo's from today to whet your appetite.
