Peter and Jayne Raine have kindly offered the use of their house and surrounding grounds and buildings for us to do some sort of Christmas/Winter get together as agreed in the October and November meetings.

After driving to Ashbourne, Peter Raine will meet a pre-booked group of Porsche Club members . He will then lead them on a scenic route through the lovely countryside around Ashbourne to Norbury Manor in Norbury. Norbury Manor is the home of Peter & Jayne and their family, in addition is the beautiful mediaeval manor owned by the National Trust set in a formal Knot garden & surrounding grounds & formal walks leading down to the River Dove. Also visits to the adjacent church with 15th century tombs & wonderful restored glazed chancel dating from 1306.

A festive lunch will be provided for the group. It will consist of- A warm welcoming (non-alcoholic) drink on arrival, with nibbles Vegetable soup with warm rolls, cheese & fruit, a selection of sliced meats, potatoes & salads, dessert with tea or coffee, wine & non-alcoholic drinks to accompany the meal.

Parking is limited to about 15 cars but should provide a wonderful photo opportunity.

Numbers are limited to 30 maximum therefore pre booking is essential.

A donation of £5 (regardless of age) towards the cost of refreshments is requested.

Places are very limited, so if you want to go, contact Phil Mansfield as a matter of urgency. See the Region 8 Section of the website for contact numbers or e-mail r8@porscheclubgb.com

Phil,
Not sure if you got the email last night so just to confirm that Di and I would love to go to Norbury if any places left. Won't be in Porsche as it's not taxed so bit dodgy on plates.

Sorry not been to see you in the new role but had house (and car) in bits.

Managed a few track days at Dono but now need bigger brakes, well any brakes at moment !

Good to see you in a proper piece of metal and look forward to Le Mans - going on the Weds night.

Ring me on (number removed) for easier contact.

Cheers
Dave & Di
