Hi all,

I know it's probably getting boring to some but I thought I'd post up a picture after the ribbing I took during my site visit today.

Well the surprise of the day came when after receiving a very warm welcome I was informed that as the event is growing nicely and on hearing about a few things I have organised for
the day the powers at be have kindly upgraded our ground space to the very nice North Court Yard and adjoining lawns,this will give excellent access to the property without the need
of running on gravel as we shall now approach via the tarmac drive.It will also offer panoramic views of the House for photo's and offer a great back drop to the event.

Now with the upgrade came the ribbing and the challenge was throw down to out number the Ferrari Clubs Event of a year or two ago where they amassed 150 plus Prancing Horse's for
the day,I'll attach a picture of their display so that you can see the Court Yard and the run off lawns which hopefully you will agree offer a splendid setting.

Now surely we can't be out gunned by these chaps and their exotica so please get behind the event and sign up to save me further ribbing or at least help boost the charity pot.

BTW spot the red trousers and on the full size picture I could count 142 F's in view.

Ta,

I vote for a car in each of the fifty shades of grey in the circle, you know, for a splash of variety hehe.

I bet there was not a dirty prancing horse to be seen in that picture. We had better get the bucket and sponges out to not let the side down.

Ed, the answer's staring at you every time you check the tally of attendees.

The first 40 that signed onto the list! (I'm ninth in, by the way.)

That's an option. You could ask "Who wants to position themselves in Ed's ring of excellence" biggrin
