[doc] Classics on the Common 2006 is on! :-)

["Claire Usher" <claire_usher71@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all, sorry to post again so quickly, but thought I'd give you the 
good news that Classics on the Common in Harpenden will be going 
ahead again this year.

I will of course let you know further details as and when they become 
available.

Email from organisers at bottom of this post.

Thanks,

Claire

Classics on the Common

2006 Update

Dear all,

Following my last email to you all I was inundated with replies, over 
100 in the first 24 hours. Every single one of them wanted the event 
to continue, all offered support, and many offered practical 
assistance, advice, other potential venues or solutions. I was 
greatly encouraged by your responses, I apologise for not responding 
to them all but John and I have been actively investigating one 
solution and the good news is that Classics on the Common 2006 will 
go ahead. I do hope that those I didn't reply to will understand that 
I wasn't being ignorant, your views and support were very welcome 
indeed.  


The initial idea for a solution to the problem of where to park 
spectators cars came quite independently from two entrants, Chris 
Small and Richard Colebourn. It was subsequently also suggested by 
Jasper Gilder of the TVR Club, I am grateful to you all. All 
suggested some sort of a park and ride scheme. We have enlisted the 
support of Harpenden Rugby Club to use their ground for parking and 
we hope to enlist 3 or 4 classic buses to ferry spectators to the 
Common. It solves the problem and will also be a nice addition to the 
event.

The date has been set, I'm not going to announce it quite yet as I 
want to get the website updated first before I start taking bookings. 
I can say it is a Wednesday and it is likely to be a very similar 
date to last year. I will of course send out a general email as soon 
as I am up and running and ready to take booking.

One final note, for those who are not aware my co-organiser John 
Tibble is retiring as landlord of The Carpenters Arms at the end of 
this month, he is moving away from Harpenden but he will still be 
very much involved in the organisation of Classics on the Common.

Very many thanks

Peter Madden
