A massive thank you to Rob for taking the time to create the lovely flyer. Always appreciated. (And no, I didn’t hold a gun to his head, he chose it all by himself )




Christmas comes early at the ESOC and with just under 4 weeks to go, I figured now would be as good a time as ever to present you with our final Pub Meet of 2016.

We have been known to decorate cars for these December meets in the past, -'we' being 'me' if last year was anything to go by - seeing the addition of tinsel, fairy lights and baubles.

However, those who choose to do this should be mindful and be sure to abide by road safety laws and common sense.

**Do not attach anything to your cars that could prove a distraction or a potential hazard to other road users.
Do not obscure your own vision or attach anything that could come flying off and potentially hit another person/vehicle.
In addition, you should be wary of how you fix things to your cars. Cellotape can bring the paint off if not careful and isn't advised.
Be careful not to place anything plastic such as fairy lights or other decorations where they could get hot and possibly melt.
There's a fine line between having a little fun and ruining your car- it’s just not worth it. **

I would advise that if anyone wants to decorate their cars, they do so in the car park and then remove said decor before embarking on their trip home.
Failing that, stick to the use of shop-bought decorations designed to be used specifically on cars (reindeer antlers and plushy nose spring to mind)
*Rob, I will allow the neons on this occasion, but only red and green.

If you don't want to violate the car- you can always embarrass yourself instead! Ugly christmas jumpers, silly antlers and santa hats...you get the jist. It's just a little fun but by no means a requirement.

Hopefully the weather will be kind to us but please remember that we have plenty of room and warmth in the pub should it be a little on the chilly side -'tiz December after all!-and of course if it turns out to be quite a nice day there's plenty of room outside thanks to the spacious garden.

This family owned pub offers freshly prepared hot and cold food (served from 12-2pm) as well as a nice children friendly area for all the mini ESOC members.




As ever, there is an opportunity to discuss upcoming events and shows that people might be interested in attending as a group, plus any plans for 2017.

I know there have been a few new faces cropping up so far this year, along with a resurface of a few familiar names; so newbies and vets, come and make yourself known!

Don't forget that that those wishing to purchase our rather snazzy club decals can do so on the day, just come and see me.

Now, the boring part. Please don't act in any form of stupidity, i.e. testing your exhaust loudness, donuts, burnouts. etc.
Anyone caught acting in this manner will be dealt with in certain ways which can lead to being asked to leave the venue. SN accepts no responsibility for anyone's driving style.

Right, now that's done. Lets get some names down.



"Christmas!? Where??!"
