Wow,
What a turn out.......I never fail to be amazed at the level of support both Diane and I get from our Mid Essex guys and girls.

so....these are the statistics for today

10 of the most beautifully turned out Ferraris....

2 Nobles both TVRcc members

2 Marcos one a TVRcc member and the other his guest

1 Viper TVRcc member

1 Porkie ex TVRcc Member but I'll let him off just this once

and..........


wait for it

82 TVRs

The raffle for young George made £270!!!!!!



Thank you to everyone who bought raffle prizes....we must of had over 20!!!

Think I should have donated some of it to Ed....who got covered in mud helping to push one TVR out of it's parking place!!!!!!!!!

I should think both Podie and Alf will need to recover after leading a convoy of 54 cars from the White Hart.. in groups of 12, of course to comply with

All in all a very busy, but really enjoyable Meet.

Great stuff.

You're a great bunch.....

I have piccies will post them soon.
I intend to put a post on the Ferrari site and ask a mod to transfer it to here....so if you have any better Ferrari piccies than mine..(not difficult..I'm no David Bailey ).please post them up so they can see them.

Thanks.

Well we won't mention that I took the wrong route and split the Tuscans...but didn't lose the Ferrari or the 3 ducklings following but still managed to arrive with the other Tuscans lol

This meet just gets better and better....!

Can I be ignorant and ask where the meet is? I am off to Brockett Hall near Braintree Essex I think?

The organisation of the convoy just gets better and better as the months go by......

Full marks to Podie and Al for the brilliant way they bought 54 cars to the Meet.

Podie organised for the White Hart to be open early....a really good idea (good RO material is our Podie!!!!)

Feeding the cars into the Forresters was.......interesting and I'm sorry that I couldn't keep them in the order you arrived!!!!!

But we were a little backed up and I didn't want anyone to overheat, even though it was cold ....

Good team work....
