Mikey! Ledge'! Superb! Thanks so much for sorting so impeccably - so appreciated :-)

It was lovely to enjoy the company of so many lovely people - so much that we had to stay Saturday too! I'm just an enthusiasm of superlative positives here smile

The only drawback was always being around slim friends that make one a bit feel portly!


But, we worked hard, firmly pushed the 'firm' button and had the cooled seats on their MAX setting biggrin and I was delighted with the way my 'land yacht' (as my 'not yet shaving' Vantage mates cheekily call herbiggrin) puffed along with the carbon tubs sailing these slim lanes! This was often my view of the road around Soar y Mynydd and Tregaron for agonising seconds eek:



The pic outside Nant yr Eos fast food Mansion is an absolute cracker yet to come :-)

Thanks so much again Mike - or 'Diolch yn fawr' as the one saying "she's on the back of the truck boys" might say but with their tongue firmly in their cheek winkcoplaugh

Mikey, thanks a million for a great weekend!!!

All weekend events are memorable, this one was the first I have been in with the long arm of the law - group pull-over by blue lights! Luckily we we're doing anything wrong (as you would expect yes) it was just a technical with someone's registration change and their insurance docs. The policeman loved all the cars thumbup
Great pic Will! My lawyers may be in touch LOL ;-) Proper policing by a proper copper - nice to see it can still happen, and end with a gag too (the rotter!) smile

Martyn said it was quite normal in those parts when I complained Nick (with his stumpy bonnet mind;) )!

DS2000 Dave came on the radio and said "I've lived here for 30 years and never seen roads like these" yes

Haha he suggested you needed a booster seat as well smile
They were some pretty amazing roads, I know the Llanfyllin area pretty well but it's more good hooning A roads. I may have to explore some of these side roads.

Mikey you are a star for getting us all organised and on the road again! Well done matey - we had another great weekend of driving, meeting old friends and making new ones. Mind you - those McLaren drivers aren't exactly party animals are they?! By lunchtime on day 2 there were only 2 McLarens left and by dinner that evening there wasn't a single Mac in the car park!

Saturday evening was quite lively, lots of laughs, so you Big Mac boys missed out on the fun! Then Sunday morning was like old times & I got to play leader back into Herefordshire. Happy days!

Ha Ha, after being held up on the road all morning by a couple of tourists I thought it best to finally open the car up and head for home smile

on a serious note it took me about 4.5 hours to get home so rather do that and have sunday at home to clean off all the sheep poo smile

probably the best roads I have ever driven, especially the first half of Saturday morning Awesome ! ..... will be going back soon.
