Ultymate Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Being born in North Staffordshire I was raised on Oat cakes, had half a dozen last week along with grilled bacon and cheese, as a matter of fact as they are readily available in N. Wales which is where I now reside. For the uninitiated they are a type of savoury pancake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Marsh Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 If Elvington iis not going ahead, or if the Ashbourne event gets moved, I will go. Just can't be in two places at once! As for Oatckes - well known that I don't like them... Anything soggy, or sticky puts me off. Last year I "won" one and gave it to Chris.

Foxfan Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 When we lived on our canal boat, we used to winter in Market Drayton and the lady who cooked at the excellent Woodies caff/emporium always had oatcakes on the menu and I always had one with bacon and cheese or sometimes coronation chicken. Absolutely delicious, but over here in East Anglia we can't get 'em! Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ceejay Posted October 9, 2019 Author Share Posted October 9, 2019 a quick heads up peeps keep yer eye on here getting local weather updates from site (well nearby) from club sec and so far its not good the long range is giving a wet front moving right through us on sunday and those of you who know Ashbourne is/was the highest RAF base in England and is subject to some extremes of weather and a very local climate ,if i had to put a number on it its 50/50 currently the front is supposed to clear through by mid of next week (met say 10 days) which would put the clear if cooler weather just right for the 20th so all is not lost. the day should pan out as follows whenever it happens. gates open 8am manned until 10 am kitchen opens for tea and butties gates close (coded lock for day visitors 3 digit one code 109, the 4 digit one is club members) flying commences following the briefest of briefings continues all day flying ceases when its to dark/cold/wet to see or do or 6 pm go home chris final decision by Friday evening chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceejay Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 Hi all sorry to be bringing unwelcome news but even this early on Friday having e mailed club sec at Ashbourne the weather is set to be poor shall we say. Wot that means in real terms is high winds and heavy rain showers forecast for most of the weekend so postponed until the 20th i hopeyou all are ok and this reserve date has worked well for us in past years, please let anyone who may not see message upside is list is still open so bring more mates thank peeps chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff S Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Thanks, Chris. Wise decision because it's horrible here and the forecast for the weekend isn't much better. Never mind, it'll be perfect on the 20th, as usual Geoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
