There were 3 Puma's at this morning's Hook Norton Classics meet at the brewery.
Dave Shaw with his lovely Millie, Rob and Jo Josephine Peebles with their Thunder and Kevin Leek with his rally Puma.
For a change, I didn't take a Puma, I took my Quantum 2+2 instead.

Look forward to hearing when the next one is.
The next meeting at Hooky is on Sunday May 12th. 10.00 to 12.30
Hook Norton Brewery, Brewery Ln, Hook Norton, Banbury OX15 5NY
Usually the meets are on the 2nd. Sunday of the month from January to October, but the odd one changes, like when a lot of us are going to the Isle of Wight Classic car Show in September.
Its a very friendly, well organised and marshalled event. Anyone with a Puma would be most welcome or any other interesting car, last Sunday there were 174 cars including a 2017 Fiesta ST200 and over a 100 motorbikes.
it does get very busy, so I would advise arriving nearer 10.00 am.
 
Who is the event organised by John? I thought you were talking about a Puma meeting, but sounds good.
Are you aware of The Classic Motor Hub gatherings at Old Walls, Albilington, Bibury (classicmotorhub.com).
Next one is May 5th - Motor Hub Ride in Day. They have a cafe and exotic (classic) cars for sale.
I expect that is busy. Haven't been myself as yet.

I've been to the Classic Motor Hub, twice for free, but I believe that now they charge £10 entry, so won't be going back.
The event at Hook Norton Classics is free and run by the group, in March we had 5 Puma's there, normally there are at least 2 of us, Kevin Leek and myself are regulars. There aren't many Puma meetings, a group go the Isle of Wight Takeover and Ford Fair at Silverstone.
As far as I know, there are only about 2,000 Puma's left on the road in the UK, some of which aren't owned by enthusiats, so it's very rare to see one on the road, which is why I publicise events that we're going to.
I and a few other Puma's usually go to the Gaydon Gatherings at the British Motor museum, 2nd Tuesday of the month from April to October, it's free, but you have to book a ticket, I always do a post when the tickets are available, most Puma's we've had there was 5 including 2 FRPs.
On July 21st, there is the Old Ford rally at Gaydon, it's for pre 95 Ford's, but we park in a different car park, last year we had a lot of interest in our Puma's, which was the first time we'd tried this event. This year entry costs £10, which also gives you full access to the Museum and the Rootes Heritage show, so it gets very busy, a good event to attend.
Please try and give Hook Norton a try, it's a wonderful location and of all the events I go to, is by far the best regular meet, photos from last Sunday.
