Thanks for all the messages. I'm back home now, discharged this afternoon, but can't use my lft hand much, hence the bad tryping!
Dog was a cross, either rottweiler lab cross or more likely rotty/doberman! Big heavy, square head like a big lab, lab type floppy ears, doberman sort of colouring, darker body, light brown legs!
Off work for probably a month.. minimum of 3 weeks.

Have a good day.

Alec

Good to meet everyone again, seems like ages since we last popped up. Glad I made the effort to get up there early this time. Didn't even realise it was near on 16.30 by the time we left!

Was really impressed with the turn out. Good to say hello to some new faces too.

Definately going to get up early again for the next meet fancy some of that Carvery this time round.

Well that was a Fantastic gathering of like minded people,a meet which I will attend again,A very special thankyou to Mac (Mollusc) for the 340 wing and dashboard parts which shall be fitted in the morning.The venue was excellent its just shame there arent other venues like it.On the drive back home I lived up to my reputation of getting lost LOL ended up somwhere in Cambridge was to busy chatting to my boy and not looking at road signs.The overall favourite car that by boy mentioned all the way home was the Black 854R which I just realised as I was writing this post belongs to Andy.The Amazon was my personal favourite,really hope to see that car again.Really sorry guys but having a brain like goldfish I forgotten most names already.

all I can say is " at last " Mo , we have chatted a few times but never met. good you meet you and the cleaner .

the amazon is always there , most people local see it blasting around the town all the while.

i need to check my photos , still have not took my camera out if the case.

also Andy and bro had food

glad to see new faces and some of the less than regular ones too.

What a great day!
Was good to see a good range of Volvo's and nice to meet a few faces from the forum.
I'll be a little earlier next time we come. (thanks for the directions Gary )
Excellent venue for a meet too, I was stuffed after lunch!
Anyway, heres my pics of the day...
Before I caught all the flies...

And in no particular order...
