Re: LITP 2025
Seems there's no need for us to pre order Sunday evening.Is it the same menu for Saturday and Sunday?
I've emailed to ask.

Re: LITP 2025
Hi All,
Below are your menu choices. Please check I have got your choice correct and if you want to change it now is the time to say.

Re: LITP 2025
I’d not seen mention of the Saturday Pootle, but have contacted Ray and confirmed there is and you can join in as long as also booked for the main event on Sunday.
I e booked a place - it’s on a first come basis
To get yourself booked on you will need to message Elisemadray on MLOC forum. Any difficulties let me know and I will send him a message for you.

Re: LITP 2025
Is this now dropped in favour of the 'pootle' then...?
A thought for Saturday if we want something different to the pootle.
www.thecardingshed.com
www.iksportclassic.com
Both at the same place.
A 40 odd mile run from The Manifold, but we've got all day.

Re: LITP 2025
I'm open either way. If there's enough takers for us to plan our own route up the Carding Shed it could be a nice leisurely run out. Not sure we should expect too much from IK Sports classics though. Web site makes it look like they take weekends off.
Sure there won't be any issues with the Pootle if we drop out. Its pretty well supported.

Re: LITP 2025
I can't seem to find the MLOC link for the Pootle in 2025, so can't see where it would take us?
Happy to do our own drive though. I like the sound of the Great British Car Journey but if everyone has been there previously, does anyone fancy Crich Tramway Village?

Re: LITP 2025
We really don't mind either but if we had to choose a preference it would be to do a 'Grand Tourers' thing on the Saturday and 'Lotus on mass' on the Sunday...Either suggestion for a possible LGT trip is fine with us.

Re: LITP 2025
I'd agree Andy, we have enough wedges to do our own thing on the Saturday. Crich (trams) is the opposite direction to Carding Shed, but let's make our own Saturday run up.
I'll ring the Shed and the car place to get an idea what can be seen car wise.

Re: LITP 2025
Regarding the Saturday night meal - can you please answer the questions below. They usually ask this kind of thing on the night

Re: LITP 2025
Obviously a detail man, you'll need another column on your spreadsheet Phil!
Can I have cream on my cheesecake, and can Sharon have cream on her Bakewell tart please. Thank you!
