I think considering how bad it's been weatherwise it was a good turnout.A big thanks to those who travelled quite a fair distance to attend.Fantastic breakfast yum yum.
Pictures later as I now have to go do the weekly shopping.
LJD I was stood next to you and your son when ordering.Sorry I didn't say hi but I didn't know who you were.I hope he was kept fairly amused at the cars.

Regards Brian.

He loved them all !

Might be a great idea time to have a "table banner" so new people can just know "thats the boys' and join in

It looked like a very friendly meet


Brian , it would have nice to say hello to more people, but it was hard to see who was "volvo" and who was not !

I think there were at least three tables each with a few people on but agreed maybe next time we could all congregate down by the motorbikes toward the end of the cafe.I think theres tables down there.Years ago we had an oxford meet and asked the place if we could have a seperate area.Worked out well as we could all talk without having to walk all over the place.

As for banners well thats easy enough.Maybe we should all be given mousse antlers on arrival Lol.
