Top day and again thanks to John.

Was good to meet the other PHers although I must admit to not knowing all your PH-ID's. Took a very long route back to breath some life into the old girl after that lengthy parade .

Do have a few pics which I'll upload and post here in due coure.

Thanks again John for organising another great day out.

Sorry we missed you when we left but we'll see you at the next FF meeting.

All I've got to do now is find out about a chip repair person to sort out the slight confrontation I had with the hidden curb on the way there !

Cheers again,

Wayne and Linda

Thanks very much guys, and to all the other PHers who turned out. 14 cars is a super turn-out and the amount of interest from the public was remarkable - one chap even thought I sold Nobles!! (I sold him all three - please have them ready for collection 9am tomorrow )

7 x TVRs (1 x Cerb, 2 x Chim, 4 x Griff)
3 x Nobles
2 x Ferraris
1 x Gordon-Keeble
1 x Lotus

...and we even found room for a couple of 'asylum seekers'

I'll post some pix tomorrow when my feet have stopped aching. If you fancy another jolly before the year's out, please see PH Roadshow's thread on the Coltishall Run (12 Sep).

I got soaked on the way home, did come over to see you all, but couldn't put faces to the names you all use on here, so didn't really get to meet anyone except for the Ferrari 360 driver who was behind me in the que getting in,

Aww! Doesn't really matter who's who, we're all enthusiasts, just muscle in. Next year, head for the silver Griff and I'll introduce you. Anyway, hope the rain didn't spoil your day too much - perhaps see you at the FF?

top day indeed -- met a few in the pistonheads area, though my V8 Vantage was with a couple of other astons in the inner ring area.

Very pleasant day out with good company as usual. Although, that wind was a little parky to begin with, Brrrr.

Ah, small country shows, you've got to love 'em. This woman really was knitting in the back there. Bless.

Oo eer misses! Works well though, don't you think? Although, I quite like the sound of having a go at Phil's idea of hanging the camera from a helium balloon (I'll pass on the rocket ), complete with remote video monitor and shutter release. I'll leave the funny voices to you Phil

Now, anyone know where I can get hold of an industrial balloon and a cylinder of helium?

Nice pics. Looked like a good show!

count me in for next year. I should have my car ready for that!

BTW, how long does it take you to smudge out all the number plates in those photos?

I see from your profile, you`re building an Ultima - if you come to any of these gatherings, you may well bump into PHers "Tuxman" and "Hornie" who have been frequenting these with their Ultima - lovely machines

Thanks for the welcome.

I have been following this forum for a while.
"Tuxman" and "Hornies" Can-am looks real neat.
