Last ever ZEDfest (UK) 13th August 2023

[mac27040]

Hi All, could you please sign the petition to save our watermill from closing to the public, we are appealing the decision so this will help our case. If we can get it overturned the ZEDfest 2024 will be back on. here is the link to the petition

Hi All, ZEDfest is back for another year and will be held on the 13th August 2023.

PLEASE NO BBQ

We do have card payment facilities for drinks and food. Please bring your £5 note for entrance

Car can arrive from 10am no earlier as we will be still setting up.

Local police will be attending our watermill open day (ZEDfest) and will more than likely be doing speed gun checks on our road!!!

SupaKool (mobile aircon re-gas service) will be on site, please let me know if you would like it doing. Just to say i had my Z4 system emptied as i’m doing an engine swap, car should hold approx 700g, however i have not had it done whilst owning the car (10 yrs) and it only had 400g left in it. They said most cars lose 10% per year. So well worth having it done.

We will be filling up paddock 1 first then paddock 2, followed by Menage, yard, paddock 4, 5 & 6 the last paddock 3. This is all on first come basis, please dont ask to be moved until everyone is in. Finally please respect my home and the fields as the grass is feed for our horses you are driving all over!!!

The plan is just turn up on the day, entrance will be £5 per car NOT per person (cash only).

The Bull & Bush local pud will be managing the drinks, food and a small bar on the day, Watermill & Blacksmiths will be in operation.

ZEDfest 2023 is 13th August. 10.00am - 4.30pm


Look forward to seeing you all.

Neil.

Birthday weekend for me, might have to pop along to this! Sounds like a few staying in local hotels? It's within a days drive but might be nice to have a weekend away as part of it.

In the diary. Local constabulary surely have to bring something very cool and fast with them or we aren’t interested. Whatever happened to the unmarked Cossies? Or go retro and bring along a ‘sandwich’ SD1
