Look out for a Porsche Carerra, various Corvettes, a Skyline and come and say hello

First one back ! (or first one sad enough to go online in this lovely weather !)

Great to see y'all, really enjoyed the drive and putting faces to cars to PHNames.

Good run (if a little slow), I left early too, and its too hot to do anything else this afternoon, let alone drive, so i'm being a lard for the rest of the day. Watching the Le Mans coverage, then the F1, then the footy.

Good to see you all, especially liked the 308 and the 'vettes.

Good to meet you all and to meet new people. Enjoyed the run (even if it was too slow - I spent most of it looking in my mirrors wondering if it was just me and the Ferrari!).

Not sure about the Bubble Inn it was a bit Lax Powa for me especially when we passed a number of more picturesque pubs en route

Roll Call
Porsche Carerra
Bently Turbo
Corvette
Corvette
TVR Cerbera(?)
TVR T350
Volvo (but with a turbo)
Some Red Thing (ooops sorry Nev a beautiful Ferrari 308)

Various BMWs at the Services but it turned out that they were with themselves (if you see what I mean)

Various Plod Cars but they got bored and went chasing innocent motorists


Ideas for the next one?

[nevpugh308]

p.s. just back from doing the dutiful Nephew thing, seeing an old dear up in hospital in Sheffield, which is why I had to exit-stage-left early.

Anorakism isn't my strong point Perhaps you need to download Fotango? Anyone any Ideas?

[nevpugh308]

Ive never used it, but I think I've heard / read somewhere that you have to mark the album as being for public access (it currently asks for username / password)

How about a longer drive out somewhere (Derbyshire ?) to somewhere where we can get some grub ?

[Balmoral Green]

I could do a route and book somewhere for lunch.
Some great roads and good pubs off the A515 between Ashbourne and Buxton.

Cool pics.
