RECENT EVENTS
Check out where we have been this year.
I am sure that we are all gearing up for the festive season and the 'classic' has been put to bed for the winter. But, let's not forget that they still need to be run regularly and, during these cold months - if the weather is fine and dry - there's nothing like getting our 'classic' out for a run in the cool, crisp air. So, I hope we can all get out and about at some point this winter.
The next event is our Christmas Luncheon. This is filling up very quickly and we are almost at capacity. Therefore, if you are contemplating joining the club, don't leave it too long before putting your name down!
Sunday 26th January is our time for the Annual General Meeting, details of which will be forthcoming, including the agenda. However, if you have any topics you wish raised at the AGM please email them to me in advance, Please email info@surreyclassicvehicleclub.com. This will potentially avoid too many topics under 'any other busines'.
Don't forget CLUB NIGHT on Friday 12th December. This will be a fun night of games and quizzes. PLEASE DRESS APPROPRIATELY FOR THE FESTIVE PERIOD. There will be a prize for the best/tackiest/worst/sexiest(?) costume so embrace the eccentricity of Christmas and dust off your jumpers/reindeer horns/Grinch masks etc. and join in the fun! Oh, and bring a few pound coins, as well...
Have a great time this Christmas!

DECEMBER UPDATE
So, Santa has his list; he’s checked it twice, some might get a new classic car, or maybe fluffy dice. But, fear not as although there is little to report from the Events Department, the year is not quite over yet.
Coming up in December, we have a ‘Fun and Games’ Club Night at The Fairmile on 12th December (please be sure to bring along a few pound coins) and we have the Christmas Luncheon on Saturday the 20th at Tyrrell’s Wood Golf Club at 12:30 for 1:00pm. Tyrrell’s Wood Golf Club can be found in The Drive, Leatherhead, KT22 8QP,
Looking forward, we have the AGM in January (more information coming soon) and, as in previous years, there will be no Club Night; meaning that the next Club Night will be on 13th February. Stay tuned though, as we are working hard to prepare the Events Calendar for 2026 and if you have any ideas of what you would like us to include, please let us know!
Well, that is it from us save to just impart one fun fact: The world’s first traffic signals were installed outside the Houses of Parliament on 10th December 1868. They used semaphore arms and red or green gas lamps, but unfortunately they exploded just a few weeks later in January 1869; Parliament was unharmed though.
So, we would like to wish you all a very merry Christmas 2025, and a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2026.
Jeannie & Phil
