Let's hope so Andy!

The current weather forecast says that there is a 5-20% chance of rain between 12:00 to 15:00, so we might be home before the rain shows!

Hope to see you at the usual place in the morning buddy!

Very busy today, even arriving at 08:50 the queue for the breakfast was still too long!

Lots of lovely cars there as well!

Of course Steves new Lambo was the best looking one there!

We were wondering how you managed to turn up with it so clean - did you have a transporter parked around the corner? wink

I followed Steve and the rest of the guys from our meeting point in Redditch this morning!

Lots of the roads we came down on,,were pretty muddy dusty and wet in places too!

But God knows how Steves car remained so clean!

Perhaps it has a secret Klingon cloaking device that we don't know about? wink

We had a good look at your R500 too - a friend who was with us used to have one and was saying how INCREDIBLY quick they are! As for keeping clean - well ours is again now but no way could we get there with it looking as clean as that Lambo!

I think the reason it looked so clean is more to with it being less than a week old tbh. That and avoiding puddled(-:

Some great cars this morning, but actually the place was overloaded, the breakfast queue was ridiculous. If that's how it's going to be from now on they either need to start restricting numbers or get in a burger van or two. I didn't get my breakfast until 11.30, and that was at a garden centre back towards Droitwich.

I have a couple of theories about this. I think that the first couple of meets have been particularly well attended because the weather has been favourable, also, at this time of year there is very little else going on for your typical pistonhead/petrolhead to get out to.

We won't be there next month and many other people will have other commitments by then (I think it falls in the Easter holidays so lots of people will be away).

So - my top tip is this - pray for rain and get there really early and you might just find yourself 1st in the queue for breakfast thumbup

Massively busy. You need to be there at 08.30 these days or be very patient.

I have taken a few pictures of the meet and the sporting trial - will post them up when I get home.

Right, as promised:

As is the fashion, one of Sone's new toy. But I am also going to give a mention to the beautifully turned out F-Type R next to it.



First 4C I have seen in the carbon



And a selection of my better ones from the trials (the first I have seen, and which incidentally is great fun to watch)
