Most important fact for the moment is where people can find us!! So for all you people who have just discovered this website and fancy coming along you will find us on the first THURSDAY of every month @

The Peacock @ Nantwich

Dave, The Landlord  reserves the area to the right as you walk through the enterence solely for our use. The tables will be labelled as reserved, but yes they are for us ;-) Anyone wanting food can eat in The Club area or in the restaurant.........The choice they say is yours!!

So where has the year gone???

A very big "THANK YOU" to all of you that have attended any club events over the last 12 months. I think generally speaking we've all had good times and made new friends along the way and long may that continue within the club, after all that is what we all want!!

The membership has swelled as the year has gone by although I'm sure a few have passed by the wayside too.....you are always welcome back. Having said that I have received a couple of fresh e-mails recently and hopefully a few more new faces will be coming along to the meets. Look forward to meeting you.........you know who you are!!!!!!

The future?????? To continue growing naturally, does that mean watercooled I here you ask??? I think realistically we have to be open to the new generation of watercooled enthusiasts. The reason behind this? We know of people with classic waterboilers who are saving for there 1st camper who have been put off by the fact that all the site suggests aircooled ownership and I believe that needs to change:

Yes we are predominatly an aircooled club and that will remain the heartbeat of the club for many years to come, however we have members with water cooled veedubs and I think that as long as the roots of the club stay as they are and new members respect that then all I can say is if you own a classic waterboiler.......get yourself down to

The Peacock (first Thursday of every month!!)
