Looks like you had a great day, wish I'd had the petrol to come down as we seemed to keep the rubbish weather up here for the day!

aww, looks like I missed a good meet. A9 was closed at Dalwhinnie because of an accident, so I had to take an altenative route. Made a day of it anyway and did a 280 mile trip to Fort William and Oban before heading back to Perth for work today. So got some good Volvoing done.
See you soon.

I was stuck in it as well, having been up to Inverness to collect a V40. When we got past the incident it was not a pretty sight.

Made it to the meet just after 1500 so got to chat with some of those who were there.

Default Aug meet

Thanks to Dunc for organising the meet on Sunday. The venue was ideal (except for the Force 5 gales!). It was good to see you again and to meet everyone else present.

Hopefully we'll be able to come to the next one too. I'll keep my eyes pealed for the details.

Cheers
Simon
