Luego Owners Club At Exeter Show
I have just received an email from the chap who organises the Exeter show, the body of the email is as follows :-
Hi all, I have three stands available at the Exeter show for club displays. Please ring me if your club can put on an indoor display of one car to
promote your club there is no charge. It will be necessary to have the stand in place by 8.30 am at the latest on the Saturday morning and break down
will be around 5pm on Sunday. It will not be possible to remove the car before this time.
Now I will not be in a position to attend the show, however I know that we have quite a few builders/owners down that way who might be interested in
going to the show. If you are interested in going down the route of an inside display of your car(s) for the duration of the show then please let me
know and I will see what I can sort out.

They must be desperate to fill the hall sending emails like that.
Sounds like it will be a c@@p show if they cant even fill the main hall.

It's actually usually a pretty good show.
Smaller than some but I've usually enjoyed myself there.

Well I had a feeling I would get one post back like this. 
As Kit Car Owners and Builders we get out of these shows what WE put into them. Should we be part of this countries/worlds financial problems by NOT
doing something. OR should we say yep there is a problem but maybe, just maybe we can help ourselves, even if the mega rich fat cats are not prepared
to help. By helping out then maybe we can show these lazy fat cats just what a bunch of total t*$$£rs they are.
As general organiser for the Luego Owners Club I think I can safely say that for most of the year our displays are attended by a hardcore group of
built car owners and the meetings boosted by attendance of builders. So far we have not had a 'Bad' display due to the effort put in by
these few. However it would be grossly unfair of me to ask those from north or east of me to go due to the mileage involved. However, I think it would
be fair of me to offer some of our more southerly members the chance to promote our group at this show.

Exeter is an ace little show and the organisers don't have trouble filling the hall with a few stalls out in the open as well. Oddly the weather
is usually kind. The hall is crammed full of manufacturers, accessories and a couple of club stands. (I believe these are offered in rotation to
interested clubs.) Well attended by kitcar owners/builders and the general public. Fair number of cars come 200 miles to attend at despite the
month.
I could be one of the booked exhibitors can't attend or has gone bust and the organisers are offering a paid for space for free.

Please sir, can I be excused? Not sure if I'm going or not but if I did I would need to be away too early on the Sunday to be of help . If the
weather is kind I may go but I doubt if I will be camping as I'm getting soft in my old age. And as for Bills excuse, ain't that bridge
paid for yet??

Distance not chronic (excuse to go through the hills south of Bristol ), weather could be a bugger but it's a big ask for the two days unless
you're trailering - Could we do it with two cars?...
If you pay peanuts...
Mentale, yar? Yar, mentale!
Drive it like you stole it!

According to his email there is only space for one car on the display stand and once on it (pre 08:30hrs sat) it cant come off till late Sunday. I
would have thought this means that who ever does it is really going to need to go with someone else so that there could be some sort of shifting for
breaks and also to go and get supplies as necessary.
edit bit.
That is, I don't want to stop anyone from going, in fact I would encourage people to go. As I said originally just let me know if you want to do
the display and I will contact the organiser and see what we can get sorted.

Clive, Couldn't do the two days - just too much on and I'd go stir crazy hanging aound for two solid days. If the weather is forecast OK
then we'll consider the blat down the A38...
Cheers, Neil.
