Notes on The Jack's Hill Cafe Inaugural Gathering
sent in by Jim King.
Last Sunday, 15th.
April saw the inaugural meeting of The Jack's Hill
Cafe Gathering held at Jack's Hill Cafe on the A5 at
Towcester, Northants.
It is an informal meeting open to all makes and ages
and was only broadcast by word of mouth. Despite
this some thirty plus vehicles attended and a large
number of spectators filled the parking lots.
The owners of the cafe opened up at 7.30 a.m. and
you could have been forgiven for going back in time
at the throng of drivers chatting about "the good
old days" and the gentle waft of a drivers "fry-up"
breakfast in the air. I am sure that with a little
publicity this event will become very popular in the
coming seasons. The Leyland marque was represented
by the Buffalo and the Martian and a most enjoyable
day was had by all.
Watch out for this one next year, hopefully to be
held around the same weekend, it's a blinder.
