Good run out, shame the return journey home wasn't at the same pace. Well done all. Anyone manage to get many pictures?

Awesome day out again, thanks guys! Apologies to the leader in the RS4 between Thetford and Stowmarket if I was a little too 'enthusiastic'! Thats 'my' road which I know very well so naturally wanted to go all out! Happy to sit behind, love the sound of V8s wink

Didn't get to take as many photos as I'd like but feel free to share and tag yourselves/each other smile

A BIG thank you to the organiser's of this event from me.

Absolutely enjoyed it, even though my lad was bursting for a pee half way through the run and eventually caused me to pull over and almost lose the convoy.

Then had the missus shouting at me when i had to catch everyone back up !!!!

Anyway, a fantastic turn out of people in their machines and a great run across, up and down to Aldeburgh.

I also have some reasonable footage captured, so once i get some time to edit and put something together, i will put a link on here for you to click on.

Thanks again guys, look forward to another one. smile

I had a good day, absolutely cracking cars a very eclectic mix. I left Stow at the back of the 'fastish' group, but immediately lost them completely as the other traffic in Tesco wouldn't let me out, as a result took a much more sedate pace to Aldeburgh. Maybe next year biggrin

Thanks to Darren and Mark for usual impeccable organisation...apologies for the wrong turn in Parham and losing most of the group, my excuse is that there were two blondes in the Porka and we were busy craning necks to make sure the group were behind! but trust everyone made it Aldeburgh???.
Kay and I had a look at the chippie queues and headed up to Dunwich to the Beach Car Park chippie and then back to Swaffham via Beccles and Norwich...even had a bit of bijou blatette with a very nice dark blue EVO from Blythburgh to Beccles.
All in all a cracking day out and great to meet up with PH friends old and new....
Oh, and Mark, the Sauerkraut is delicious!

Great day, perfect weather and big thanks to the organisers. Car of the day for me was the little red Alfa.

Enjoyed the run, even in the 'slow' group. Great work, Digger! smile

Me and Viv had a great day,
Nice to see some old faces and meet new ones,
We left stow at the back of Marks group but got cut off by 2 shoppers straight away, a quick turn back and slotted in behind that lovely Alfa and then had a great run to the sea side, we must have a bigger car park next time, still parked up in town fine.

A very big thanks to Darren and Mark and the others for making this a great day out, later we left to get an ice cream in Yarmouth!

Thanks for slowing down for us, although we did catch up (sort of) and then i ignored the Aldeburgh turnoff, thinking that we were going to take another route in, as i could see in the distance that everyone had gone past it. Then only to find you lot coming back at me and then taking that turnoff after all. Lol.

Thanks to everyone for a really enjoyable day out. I did worry that the run was a bit out of the way for me but I enjoyed every minute of the drive. Particularly the first leg from Thetford between an impressively 'nippy' blue Fiesta and a lovely Tamora. It was a good test of the brakes to stop for the family of ducks crossing!

Didn't realise how common Evo IX FQ-340's were until today!!

That was us in the blue Evo! smile

We were the Tamora behind and took us a second to work out what was going on but the emergency stop for the duck family left both my passanger and I in fits of laughter and shows to us the true spirit of PH runs, to enjoy going out for a fun drive, going quickly is just a by product!! Spent the whole day being chased by 2 M3's which I hope enjoyed a few pops and bangs from my Tam.

Thanks to the organisers, please can we sort the chip shop queues next time as they were too long for my wife and that cost me a 3 course lunch in the Regatta bistro! Food was great and made the day even more memorable. smile
