Anyone get any photos of our Black/White 1935 Rolls Royce 20/25 Limo or of us in our period costumes? We were alomst the only ones daft enough to brave costume in 35° heat so if you snapped anyone in costume it was probably us.

BTW Eugene7 & Lowdrag, cheers for organising the BBQ, best steak I've ever had an a great way to spend a Friday afternoon.

seeing as I had camera in hand on all 3 occasions we stopped for a chat I can't beleive I didn't actually get any. doh

good to meet you all (though if your not recognising the user name you will remember my rather dashing travelling companion and her dresses, who was one of the few others to make an effort)

Good man Garlick, can't beleive the old girls didn't make it into your weekend review though. BTW, spoke to 2010 'Diablo' owner at Dover, he told us it's a hybrid, BMW V12 with a lot of genuine lambo parts, we told him he's got to change that plate asap.

markiii, I did use the word almost (or alomst!) with Ms Chocolate (or Salad) in mind, think she must have the best photo of all of us.

How the hell did Garlick get to take a photo of the cars without us spotting him? hehe

Maybe some of us were drinking? drink

Sorry to miss you!

Sorry to have missed you guys too. I always find it hard to introduce myself at meets if I'm honest, unless you get chatting to someone naturally it doesn't always happen.

I would like to introduce myself more, but I feel a bit silly walking up to a group of people who are already chatting with their mates and saying 'Hi, I'm Garlick' hehe

Bit o/t, but we were in a close relative of your Rolls for the 24 Hours...

It's Pistonheads - just stroll over and hurl abuse at the attending rabble - works for me!! hehe

I guess we'll just have to get a picture of you so you can't hide!!

I guess no smilie faces on the t shirts didn't help this year frown

Hey boys! Gave you a shout out in the 'Hands up...' thread

I've got one of us all in costume. Well, that does depend on whether the rather drunken Caroline ( tongue out ) managed to focus the camera correctly biggrin Was gutted myself not to have any of the Roller frown

Will look see later...

The French white Opel GT in the shots above was with us at the BBQ

That's great - many thanks for the photo! Difficult to see here just how drunk the others were! hehe

Well done on the outfit - we appreciated the effort for period attire, even if it was a bit warm for the jacket!!

Great to catch up with you again!

Cheers

I must have been standing next to Garlick when I took this - so to add a period feel....



Great afternoon, it was a pleasure meeting the Rolls Rover crew beer

The reason Rob couldn't tell how drunk the others were is.........well..........something to do with alcohol!

By the way, following this thread has led me finally to join up with PH. So, Mark, to add another face to name to username this is Adi
