I'll be coming for sure, along with the AA and boot load of spare oil and car parts......(ok, may be joking about the last bits but I'll be there). And yes, I'll meet you all at FatDonalds for another artery clogging breakfast or a pre-meet chat at the very least.

The reason it's been moved this year is because they can't afford the bill for cutting the grass and Haynes are really annoyed about some Volvo owners last year trashing the jungle with their AWD's and leaving angle gear parts behind in the process. :hilarious :D (just kidding) :B_thumb:

hi, you are quicker than me again.
Just to answer a few notes above, the venue is an old mill (not a farm) and the cars will be parked on a "Lawn". Grass kept short as lots of events are held here.

hopefully here is all the info you might need:
SWEDISH DAY UK 11TH MAY 2014
We invite you all to the 7th Swedish Day UK.
2014 sees a new venue and new ideas, but the show is still for those interested in Swedish vehicles including Swedish commercial vehicles as well as all other Swedish products.
Our new home is at Haslebury Mill, just outside Crewkerne. A fantastic old 19th Centaury Mill with lots of history everywhere you look.
The main Swedish Day will take place on the Sunday but this year we are planning to make the show into a longer event for those wishing to make a weekend of it all. On the Saturday afternoon you can enjoy a tour of the local countryside with a road trip being organised by Etienne Morsa who lives in Belgium but loves England. Saturday evening will see a carvery cooked by the chefs at the Mill. Limited camping will be available if wanted.
For the first time we have introduced a vehicle fee of £5.00. (no charge for occupants or foot visitors)
This is to help us with running costs and monies left over will be donated to a charity.
The chosen charity for 2014 is “Cancer Research UK”
Each vehicle owner will be given a raffle ticket, as a thank you, for a nice gift.
On Sunday, the chiefs will cook up a breakfast for those arriving hungry as well as a Hog Roast at lunch time. The Mill’s bar will also be available during the day.
There will be an area available for a few trade stands and auto jumble alongside our sponsor’s displays.
As always the event will be a leisurely day out, come along, park up and meet friends old and new, chat, admire, eat, drink and chat a bit more.
There will be a few prizes given out, favourite Saab/Volvo, favourite truck, furthest travelled etc.
Application forms can be found on the web site; however they will also be in the presentation pack on the day if required.
Thank you very much for supporting the first years of Swedish Day with a big thank you to Haynes for their support in the early years.

More details at www.swedishday.co.uk Any questions. please email me. We look forward to seeing you on the 11th May.

Swedish Day is creeping up faster than ever this year but I wanted to check in with a few extra details.
Camping.... We went to the Mill the other day and looked at the camping and caravan options,
there is room for about 10 tents but your car would not be beside you. The grassed area is behind a fence.
There is no charge but you will need to remember there is no toilet outside business hours. Toilets are inside the Bar and restaurant.
The area for the caravans is behind the Tithe Barn on hard standing with space for about 20 vans but again please let me know, You can stay both Saturday and Sunday night but please be aware that there is a wedding taking place in the barn so music could go on until the small hours. No charge again but as with the tents, no toilets after hours.
The Saturday tour is coming together very well, Etienne has arranged a very nice slow country tour covering about 55 miles and including visits to a pottery, a cider mill and Lyme Regis.
We are still planning the Saturday night carvery and details will be next on the list.

On the Sunday, Rob Voisey from XLPest, will be there with a few hawks and an owl for you to admire.

Lance Cole has offered a prize for a new category, 'Most characterful oily rag Swede' oily rag being a dirty old unrestored but daily driver, so no excuse now,

Any questions? please PM and I will get to you as soon as possible.
I think that's it for now, until next time....
Robin.

We normally meet up with Sharkey, Graham and Annemarie at Popham services, then head down to Maccy D's in convoy. This year it's being held at http://www.haselburymill.co.uk/

If you want a Maccy D's breakfast we'll have to meet at about 7.30.

How's that dictating? So if you're ever invited somewhere, let's say a wedding, you don't RSVP, as you don't want to be dictated to.
I have noticed you never have a problem putting your name on the list for the softies meet, or is that because you're the one doing the dictating?

Over the past few months I started the softies meet threads so of course I would put my name down.

You normally get INVITED to a wedding you don`t have to put your name to attend !!!!!!!

You are telling me as my name is not down for the Swedish day I can`t go ................................ now that is dictating.

I didn't say you couldn't go, you asked that if your name wasn't down, that meant you weren't going, if you haven't put your name on the attendance list, that would suggest you weren't going.

Swedish Day is almost here so its time to write the final notes.
This message is going out to all, so if a question I may ask has been replied by you already then don’t panic, that’s my job.
All the events mentioned are taking place at Haselbury Mill and their post code is TA18 7NY. Haselbury Mill is located just off the A30 about a mile outside Crewkerne (Yeovil side)
The weekend starts off on Saturday the 10th with a Road Tour of the area. Organised by Etienne from Huy in Belgium and I will publically thank him here for his hard work.
It’s not a race but we plan to set off at around 11.00 and then the day is yours. I will be there from 10.00am.
The evening carvery meal (10th again) is looking to be a very popular event. There is an option for a vegetarian dish and also kiddies meals if you would prefer. The restaurant we are using is above the main bar. The stairs are just inside the main door. The bar and restaurant is the first building you come to on your right, just past the pond.
Please note that there is a wedding taking place on the Saturday.
Sunday 11th and Swedish Day takes place over the whole of the grounds. We have been given “The Tithe Barn” for the day and in here you will find food and drinks served all day, hot and cold,,, and hot and cold. Toilets are also in The Barn. It’s a very large building so if we do see a small drop of rain you can shelter inside.
Please use the main entrance when arriving at the show where, you will be greeted by members of “South West Saab” who are kindly helping out.
Trucks and caravans are requested to make their way to the exit which is a few yards up from the entrance. The gate way is wider and more suitable for the wider vehicle set up.
Well, I hope that I have covered everything, if there are any questions please don’t hesitate to ask away.
Robin.
