Ouch. Low blow, Mr C! laugh

I'll be there. Though, following the summons I got in the post yesterday, I doubt I'll be driving myself.

Just don't do the high speed run thing. Stone chip nightmare, esp if an arse in a maxed alfa GT infront of you thinks he can out drag a Ghibli cup.

Hi David, It was good to meet you and Jan yesterday. What a great day wih a good turn out of Lambos and excelent weather. Its always good to meet other Lambo owners and to see just how well the cars are looked after and presented. Hope to see you all again at another meeting.

Yes I was there and surprised at the huge turnout of cars. Dave thanks for your advice about refurbishing the Diablo wheels. A job for the winter I think.
Crikeymikey thank you for the wine and hospitality. Everyone was very welcoming and that helps when you turn up to an event on your own.

Yer welcome. And I doubt you are ever on your own for long, Jan. Though I'm sure the attention isn't always welcome.

Now if only Jon and Tony C had been available. What a sight that would have been!

...I had planned on coming along, but just couldn't make it. Also not sure I want to park my car next to Jan's or Jon's at the mo, as the front end looks like it has been sand blasted!!!! ...not much Arancio left!!!
