Default How old is ESC?

Just wondered how old the ESC is?

Was it created off SN and then brought onto SN?

ESC was actually formed circa 2005 IIRC

Started on here and created when the SIDC Meet combined with the Flat Four Meet

Flat Four meets were originally @ the Plough & Sail ( Rettendon )

Then to The Dick Turpin (a127)


From there to

The Lodge .. Spring 2006

LOL Nope !!

Moved from dick turpin to lodge (3rd thursday meet )

The old sidc meet ( 2nd thurs ) has always been " the hwh , hence we have two meets on consecutive thursday meets in each month

My Wife pointed out to me that we was attending meets whilst JOSHUA as about 2 years old.

As i bought the car just after he was born & didnt meet any of the ESC untill seeing TINYS CAR @ a show on SOUTHEND SEA FRONT then i attended the next meet,.

Joshua was born in 2002..

Diane beleaves we must have gone to our fisrt meet December 2004??
