Final itinery from Martyn:

Fiat X19 Owners Club National Event 2013
Dates: Friday 6th to Monday 9th September 2013
Location: Kelling Heath Holiday Park, Weybourne, Holt, Norfolk, NR25 7HW (Tel 01263 588181)
Accommodation: Camping and Touring Caravan Pitches available along with luxury holiday homes at the Holiday Park. Booking essential. Please contact Claire Pennock on 01263 588181 to book and mention the X19 Owners Club for a discount. Details of accommodation can be found on the website link listed below. Other accommodation is available nearby including hotels and B&Bs. For campers and caravanners arrival is anytime from midday, holiday homes from 3pm.
Itinerary
Friday evening: Meeting at the Holiday Park bar (The Forge) anytime from 6pm with a view to eating in The Terrace Restaurant at about 8pm. I hope to be in the bar from about 6pm and will be wearing a black X19 club t-shirt/rugby top for ease of identification!
Saturday: Depart 10.15am and drive to Binham Priory for a brief stop, then onto the delightful village of Little Walsingham for about midday and a light lunch (there is The Bull Pub and several cafes). After lunch we head up to Wells Next the Sea and drive east along the coast with a short stop at Blakeney and then onto Cromer for some photos and perhaps a walk along the cliffs and seafront. This is a drive of about 50 miles. We will then head back to Kelling Heath for a BBQ (or if the weather is awful another meal on site). BBQ food can be bought in Cromer and there is an on-site shop albeit with limited choice. I will provide a BBQ/charcoal/plates etc.
Sunday: Steam train journey to Holt or Sheringham for a light lunch. Approximate departure time 10.30am from the Holiday Park. Trains run fairly frequently so we can be flexible about when we return to the Holiday Park. For those staying the additional night there is plenty to do at the Holiday Park (please refer to the website) and I will be happy to recommend other local attractions.

if I stop over and cant get a caravan. Anyone got a spare place in their van or tent?

Got a spare room going, £100 for the weekend, BYO beer

Mark (the chosen one), Nick and myself will be leaving Herefordshire at 1pm tomorrow (managed to agree an earlier finish at work). At least we can get the tents up in the light!

Car's ready and we'll be starting off about 1.30pm tomorrow.

Looking forward to it. The weather doesn't look like it will be too bad over that way.....

Leaving God's own county straight after school at 3pm.
Supposed to be heavy rain on the way :ohmy: but Saturday and Sunday look decent in Norfolk according to the BBC weather online thingy

Just make sure you don't get yourself in detention otherwise you'll be even later getting there... :lol:
