15th & 16th July saw us attend the Farnborough Army Show for the
first time. This turned out to be a spectacularly successful event with 30
Panthers in attendance. Always the Club with the largest Displays. The
weather was superb and around 30 degrees on both days. By all accounts
there was loads to see & do, lots of Craft etc type stalls, fairground
and Displays with Dogs, Birds of Prey, Motorcycles, marching bands and
Parachuting to mention a few. Another plus was that this years it was Farnborough's
turn to host the Air Show so we were entertained by many low flying planes
of all types. Being local we were able to set up our area in advance so
the Caravan & Marquee were readily available from the moment we
arrived! As usual No. 91 hosted many overnight guests! and the Saturday
night we had a mass BBQ with 21 members. A phenomenal interest in the cars
from the public, and of course there were visits from people who used to
work at Panthers!! an additional bonus of signing up a local new Member.
It was great to see so many members turning out with 'regulars'
being joined by other members who had not had the car out for a 'couple of
years'
WELCOME TO ALL.
