Not for me thanks, cigarette and a pint will do!

Also, may not be around for all day .... girlfriend has told me that we're meant to be going somewhere; apparently I've known about it for ages...
I don't think so, Darren, as I will have had a late breakfast on the MX5 run.
Thanks guys smile

Glad to have you along. The MG V8 offers a fine sound, but it won't quite be the same without the deafening Wedge in the pack earshehe

Hello everyone,

A huge thank you to everyone who made it out to our first Event of the year thumbup
Where were around 15 cars of various shapes and sizes taking to the very wet (and sometimes flooded) roads, but we stayed together for the main.

Once underway, we all managed to stay together for the most part. The rain did little dampen the fun.
Lunch was tasty and the pub life very easy.
The second part actually contained some sun! Rain at the end point was a shame, but I managed to speak with everyone before they departed.

Feedback is always welcomed, as it can only help improve the next Run!
Even if I so use Tesco again, I'll certainly look in to tweaking the exact meet area as it did get a little congested!

Great to see the usual PHEA suspects, and welcome to the PH newbies wavey

Once I have uploaded my photos, I'll post a link here.

I will be posted the 2017 Calendar very, very soon so please watch this space smile
Thank you again, and I hope to see you all throughout the year.
