Before I move to the next thread thought I would invite everyone to upload any hi-res pictures of the meet that they might have..

http://ph.uncle-dave.co.uk

Totally freee! I've got plenty of diskspace left aswell..

Didn't get a chance to meet all of you, but maybe will attend another week..
I was the one with the white shirt that arrived in a very stylish Escort wish the Golf would hurry up.

Nice to meet you all, may see you soon!
Dave.

Yep unfortunately went home...
It was partly the fact that we were in the escort -- Well can't have you all being shown up can we?

But mostly the fact that we'd already had a bit of food earlier - and when we saw the parking situation we decided to move on home..
(Plus the fact my Dad won't talk to anyone because he thinks he needs to have an excellent knowledge of TVR past and present and various other European and International Marques)

Will be different next time though! Hopefully see you next time (might be snatching a lift in old64er's Griff!)

Hopefully will meet more of you then! It will take me a few weeks to learn everyone though

Dave.

Ah, you'll join in the world of us oldsters. Due to a somewhat, er, excessive past my memory is somewhat kippered.

It's not all bad though. If you like meeting new people it's great, cos next time you meet it's like the first time.

Anyway, what were we talking about...

And you are?....

Nice one...

By the way... someone pulled up half way through when I was talking to Joolz and (I think 2SB was there at the time) said he would be back in about an hour in his wedge... Did anyone actually wait for him or did he mean he was going straight to Matlock Bath?
Can't help but feel sorry for the bloke though if he did turn up to an empty car park!

Dave.

Aah I'll be able to sleep now..

(Just wondered)

Never actually seen a wedge on the road before.. also applies for a Sagaris (and until Tuesday a Tamora!)

The sound of the beauties at Cromford was beautifulll!

Must Sleep Now Turning into Primitive State - See you all tomorrow..

Bit late, but good to meet you all yesterday - putting faces to cars to PH_Names (yes, 2SB - mine *are* all the same! <- comes from an imagination failure)

Can't make it next week, but hopefully again sometime soon.
