My plans now altered, I'm able to come along to my first SS (yes another newbie!).
With plenty of enjoyable organising for the PH East Anglian region, it'll be a pleasant change turning up as a punter thumbup

Alarm clock is on a Smart phone which is smart enough to do it automatically.

Bloke at my work changed his last Sunday night and was an hour late for work on Monday.

I live just up the road. Think I'll pop down if there's space left on the list.

I thoroughly enjoyed that trip out! Many thanks to the PH team, their marshalls
and to everyone at Zenos for the warm reception. The thought, science, engineering
and self-evident raw passion certainly makes a Zenos a worthy candidate for investment.

I was reminded of a time, back in 1964, when just down the road from me there was
a similar outfit producing bespoke cars. There was plenty of innovation in their
vehicles too with the body designed by none other than Giugiaro. I speak of course
of the Gordon Keeble. It's fantastic to see that 50 years on, that same pioneering
spirit lives on, so I wish these guys every success!

Thanks again thumbup

Regards,
Steve

A few snaps from me

Arrive together Park together – A few from the PH EA group – all of arrived together 3 out of the 5 left together – I think the DC2 Teg broke down…… Or could it be the Chim



Midge (not A series motive force)



PH is all about Barges



Vette



No offence to the owner but I wasn’t sure about the wheels



NSX’s R Us (three in total turned up that I saw)



Incontinence issue?



Colemans on a bacon roll anyone? (in all seriousness the bacon rolls were scrum – thanks whoever picked up the tab for that)



Cobras look so much better without a front number plate



Gatso view



Ex Top Gear (err I know what that’s like to have to live with)



Too Orangey for crows





And dyno-rod orange (well it probably once was – very sensitive to fading I guess)



Demolition Man (Passed us on the A11 while we were waiting for a TVR to be fixed and meet us)



Hiding in the shrubbery another previous A11 spot (we had to wait for……… a TVR)



Top bombing – While we waited for someone we also saw this on the A11 (enough yet?)



A bit to scene for me and one of my cars has a nickname of “stickers” so I really shouldn’t comment



Sounded really nice as it went past on the A11 – (I’m guessing the joke might be wearing a bit thin)



Trying to hide the wife’s car behind a FFRR……..



Hairdressers Car (it’s OK I have one) Fast Eddy


Iluvmercs (Aston)



Reminded me of sticker a friend had on his Lotus – limited to 377 bhp please pass


NSX Packaging



Awesome Dash



Condensation issues



Lots of BHP’s



Obviously we came to Zenos so have a picture or two





And the backbone of the operation



Other pictures maybe in my bucket

Thanks PH team for organising – just a bit of advice you do need to keep an eye out I saw a couple of dodgy characters nicking the banners of the fences – they were well prepared had side cutters with them and they had the banners down and stuffed in the back of a car really quickly.

Thanks Zenos for hosting the event

Oh and thanks again whoever for the bacon roll and coffee – I missed breakfast leaving early –then spent a bit of time waiting for….. Have I done that joke earlier??

Interesting to see the Zenos, best of luck to everyone there in the venture-it certainly looks like it has the spec to succeed.

Thanks to everyone and special big thanks to Phil from Zenos for helping us with our locking system failure.

We both enjoyed the bacon rolls, coffee and the sweets.

I didn't take a picture of your car because you had help on the task when I went past wink

Bit off topic but is there a American military base up that way somewhere?

On the way back we saw loads of funny looking USA imports. Mostly new-ish cars all LHD and on square numberplates. Strangest was a recent 328i on Q-plates!

You get to see some sights driving past those bases. Galaxys and other military stuff doing turns and approaches overhead, lots of US metal on the roads, and the US Forces radio station which makes for a bizarre half an hour as you drive past smile
