Long old jouney to get there tonight.

Will have to start thinking about heading up, in a few minutes, if I'm going to make it for 5pm.

Great meet, nice to meet some new people. Glad to see all turned up fully clothed....lol

Nice venue with fantastic roads. Shame Ian had problems with his intercooler pipework blowing off as we'd have been right in the thick of the action.

Matt, your green machine is growing on me, good luck at the pod, don't break it. Have you AA cover...lol

I made it to sourton with just under a quarter of a tank, so all's well.

NOTE TO ALL THOSE WHO USE SHELL AT SORTON IT CLOSES NEXT SUNDAY FOR A REFIT -4 MONTHS... OMG I now have to go South Brent or Trerulefoot for fuel bloody nightmare!

May see some of you at Smeatharpe next Saturday

nice bit of overtaking there on the way back Giles. Did well to get in behind me past that tanker. Was it me or did he brake as we were going past?

Great to meet everyone, some nice motors as well. Thanks for organising Lee and maybe see you again on one of our many visits to the South West.

Thanks to all who made the trip out last night. I think a good time was had by all? The turnout was amazing and bigger than expected. i think we had every base covered with a real varied selection. After the poor press attached to these gatherings created in Plymouth Saturday night i think we showed the public what its really about smile
I tried to speak with everyone throughout but a lot seemed to disappear after Tescos? so apologies to those i missed. Shame you guys didn't make it to the end though as the roads cleared out a bit after that and it was nice sitting outside having a BBQ and a drink. Made sure i was last to leave just to hear the cars all roar up the road. they all sounded amazing cloud9. all the general public ran to the hedge to hear the Lambo off hehe
To the next one beer

Cheers Lee, as you know I had to head back from Launston. Talking with the guys I brought along from work. They lost the convoy after Tesco and made their way up to Bude separatly, but could not find the Venue. Still had a good run out and a meal in Bude though.

Chris Keep missing you at meets. I need more Lambo in my life.

Val based on how much my car shook when you went past, you were traveling some. thumbup

(Fortunatley my hair's all real)

It was fine, except some guy in a white sportscar in front was holding me up, as the car came towards us ! wink

To be honest, that was the best bit of the driving yesterday, I had my window down the whole way back listening to your exhaust.......sad isnt it !

I was a bit surprised how quick you came up my behind mate! Next time I'll drop it down a few gears rather than being lazy and leaving it in 6th! smile That'll teach me...

No, that's not sad. What is sad is I still have my window down listening to it and the air intakes on accelerating...

Yep, sorry John, was beginning to think you'd gone off me mate! Did ask where you were and they said you'd bailed at Tesco's.

Bit worrying Lee, when people run into the hedges. Perhaps they were wary of car meet burn outs? wink
BTW, if you are semi half serious, I can ask my brother about Beamer discounts.
Although he doesn't work there any more he still keeps in contact with people that do, I believe.
Just PM me and let me know.

My mother turned up out of the Blue, from Liverpool. Not bad for 75.
