Really really pleased I/we came - enjoyed it all bar the rain. Only Volvo's would get me out in weather like that!!! Just learning about photobucket, so hope these pics work. Looking forward to the next meet in weather where I can get to see more of those amazing machines of all yours. Thanks for the invite. Jeff/Susie/Peter

That was my first ever car club meet as well as my first ever CB meet, thanks to all for making me feel very welcome.

Here's my snaps, sorry they're not great, had to do the best I could with my phone after leaving my camera at home. Doh!

Cheers,
John

Thanks, it's a Sony Ericsson with a 3 megapixel camera so it's better than most phones, but I still had to do quite a lot of playing with the pics once I got home to make them presentable!

Good to meet all of you too, hopefully next time the weather will be better and we can talk for longer. Definately liking your 900 btw, exceptionally tidy.

Cheers,
John

Nice one Engineer how many Banana trees do you see on the way to Essex lol,
must admit though as Chas will vouch the AWD does fill you with a lot of confidence

Great to see everyone again, look forward to seeing some of you at the VPCUK Essex meet on the 10th June

Gary.

Hi All,

An enjoyable day again despite the damp conditions (by the way, a tip from me for wet weather. Dont wear jeans that are too long, as you can see from one of the photos. You get wet legs !)

Engineer,

Happy to help with the rain protection !

Gary,

Yes, had some fun on the way home as well. The AWD is such a great car in the wet, well come to think of it, the dry as well !

Iain,

Liked the new vehicle. Nice colour by the way !

Nice to meet some new people as well, being a relative newcomer myself. Good pictures folks !

Look forward to the next one

See you soon,

Chas
