The group met in glorious sunshine for a record-breaking Crossfire meet at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford. 24 Crossfires were in attendance, an amazing turn out, and well and truly beating our old record of 19 cars. May be it was the beautiful sunshine, or the added attractions of this fantastic venue, but the line-up of Crossfires was a fantastic sight! It was a great pleasure to meet so many new friends and welcome them as new members of the group.

The next meeting of our Club is on the 2nd June at Blenheim Palace and we have the initial information on the arrangements for the day. Blenheim Palace web page link www.blenheimpalace.com
As usual please plan to arrive at about 11.00am. We will assemble at the Falstaff, which is shown on the map below of the grounds. Access is best from either the Hensington Gate or Woodstock entrance. We have agreed that the entrance fee will be paid at these entrances at a preferential rate of £7.60 for the grounds and park or £13.60 to include the house. Please note that the cost of visiting the House will be an extra £9.00 if paid for after entering the grounds if you only pay the £7.60 gate fee, ie the total cost will be £16.60 not £13.60. Hope that makes sense! There is a discount for members over 65 at £6.20 and £11.70.
After we are all assembled at the Falstaff we will drive, in convoy, to the display area, weather permitting, which is in front of the Great Court entrance which should make for some wonderful photographs. We plan to park the cars either side of the road in a herringbone fashion to really show off our cars to their very best.
