I should point out no sheep were killed

But, they were a bit worried

Did you all notice that ... Molly says "I wonder who will turn up next year"

All looking very optimistic then. When does booking begin?. are we going to the seaside?.

Thanks again molly , I just keep reliving the whole experience. The memories should keep me going for a while, just love it

Maybe the evo triangle, over the top of snowdon, drifting on pendine sands and then drop Rob off at the priory to spare Molly?

Seriously tho' Jon - it would be great if you want to do a 'Triangle' run as the Beacons are my specialist area but the north is a strange, strange land to me

Frequented by strange farmers as well

[SELON]

William - flipping fabulous car! I hope to see more of you and T Spoon! You epitomise the origins of the marque. Lovely to meet you guys.

Getoff - AbitQuick more like. Please flash more when you want to get past!!!

Rob - I was a bit pickled, but he was the cheapest round in 10 years. "Keep the change barmaid."

I knew the people would blow the cars away!

Molly - please put me and Mrs H down for your next excursion!

All at the dinner on Saturday (being tooooo late for Friday) just brilliant!!

Ed50 - see you soon!

I heard the Hedlu (Welsh for Polizi) operate speed traps in the Evo triangle area now due the fame the route has gained via the motor shows?

Justin's idea of the trip to the sea from his location could be a great option?

They have done for years, there are far better roads up there

Question: Do you think there are larger or fewer numbers of sheep in North Wales, compared to South Wales ?

We sure witnesses a great number of those "white stones" as someone said, who was that?

Retman certainly thought they were white stones until he saw me slowing down in his rear view mirror and then realised they were sheep lol!

Yes indeed Molly!

I was impressed with your reaction time to the cow brake test on Day 2...

I thought Rob had a picture?

Better than that (possibly) he has a video, complete with commentary, but I need a bit more time before I can sort it and share it

You asked Mike and so you shall receive

The majority of Welsh Weekenders are going to say they remember the sheep, the horses and the dinosaurs (does no one else have photos of dinosaurs?!) but not the cow. That is because it was a Sunday morning cow. I drove the lead car for about three quarters of the route from the hotel to Tintern (sorry if I held you up guys but wasn't it my turn to have some fun at the wheel?) and then, as he was on home territory, Mike (Gdc) lead the rest, which is when this happened:

More photos




As a special surprise we had arranged for the villagers and local constabulary to come out and line the route. The locals had taken it very seriously and many had even dressed up for the occasion!

[DAMIT]

[quote=MollyGTi]More photos




On reflection, it was a good job those ladies on their bikes made it to the top before we all "gingerly" proceeded down the hill!

More Woolly Bollards in NW by my estimation

When's the next meet? (now I have an Aston again!)

Molly and I have been talking, maybe a sorti over north wales in sept/oct but we're going to make you rear gunner otherwise we'd never see you!

Maybe a shelsey Walsh breakfast club one Sunday.

Haven't you got a mini Europe adventure first?

Not a mini adventure in any sense of the word - this one is definitely going to be epic & I've just finished packing

I agree Mikey, when is the next one - I recon we need a "Fall/Autumn" weekender as the leave are just turning - anyone up for this?

[W1111AM]

Found another couple of pictures:

the flock of moving white rocks:



Duuurrr, don't play on the dinosaur kids - it will eat you....
