I have received the email below from the East Lothian Mini Owners Club asking if we are interested in attending their show on 1st June at Haddington.
So this is to see if there is any interest. I have a wedding that day so wont unfortunately wont be there but that doesnt stop the rest of you going.
Add your name to the list if you are interested and I will go back to Chris.

Interested

'East Lothian Mini Owners Club are proud to invite you and your club to our Classic Car Show to be held at Neilson Park, Haddington near Edinburgh on the 1st June 2013 from 10am to 4pm.  
Incorporating our car show with the annual Haddington Festival Fun day it promises to be a great day out for all the family. 
With a good range of Minis, Classic Cars, Show cars, kids rides, face painting and much more yet to be confirmed. The event will be free to the public.
For entrants there will be the added incentive of Prizes for Cars voted by a few members of the public. Last year we had prize contributions from Ring Automotive, Carplan, Adrian Flux Insurance, Raceland and Bedlam Paintball. It was a great start to an annual show with over 35 cars of all marques turning up.  http://www.elmoc.co.uk/index.php?p=1_4&a=ELMOC_SHOW_2012" rel="nofollow - (gallery can be found here)
This year we are doubling the cars attending and make it a show to remember
We are offering display pitches for clubs and individuals. We have space for up to 60 cars and will be opening invitations from all makes and models.
There has been a request in joining the Parade that goes round the town. I would like to gauge feelings on this from you and your members to see if this would be something worth taking part in? The parade itself is very slow moving and older cars have been known to overheat. We have been asked to do our own parade lap at a faster speed this year to prevent overheating.
 
Please let your members know and come back to us uf you are interested in attending.

We would love for your club to take a stand at our event and help us make this an annual event that will be popular with the public.
 
Up to date details are available on our website  http://elmoc.co.uk/1_14_Show-.html" rel="nofollow - www.elmoc.co.uk
 
Please either reply to this email if you wish to attend or click on the following link to the online form.

    No Shorty for this event unfortunately.

    I'm the contact for the organisers to deal with. 

    Can I suggest that we meet at my house (everybody knows where that is) at 9:30 for a 9:45 departure. 

    People may arrive earlier if a bite of breakfast is required. There are 2 shops in Tranent High Street that I can recommend for Bacon Rolls etc. Snack Shack and The Bakers.

    Can I meet at your house as well as I'm not quite sure where the show ground is.
    I've been to your house before but can't exactly remember where it is but I could get directions from Paul

    guys. I'm no gonna make this. flight was majorly delayed today and everything I'd planned to do today has to be done tomorrow now.

    If I can get it done early I'll make a late appearance but don't hold yer breath as I need to deal with NHS 24

    Not quite what I expected, but still a good day out. Weather held out, but was a bit chilly when the clouds came over 
    We were meant to do a parade lap around the town, which was a bit disjointed

    Congrats to Ian - his Mini won Best Mini in Show 

    I'm working through my pics, but here are a few to start off
