Well, I had a good day out :)
Even the weather turned out better than expected. It got quite hot in the afternoon. (you were right Ian, the weather improved a lot once you arrived!)
Nice to meet you all. Some amazing cars. Bit dissapointed that Tuxman didn't win an award. Beaten by a TVR! That's just not on ;)

Air display was great too :)

Thanks to Simpo for organising it so well. :thumbup:

Really sorry to have missed out on this one. Ended up having to do family things that I had gotten out of before but had no excuse to cancell without my car to go in!

Looking forward to seeing some photos of the day please!

I hope my £5 went to a good cause.

"Sincerity of the year" award goes to Gary!

Lovely day out and managed to meet most on the stand today. Glad I managed to pull the good weather down with me, but sorry my legs were on show once more! - thanks for organising it John


Qoute of the day - "Dawn finds the Ultima very practical for shopping at Tescos, especially @ 8 miles to the gallon" by Simon (Tuxman)

Excelllent day out. Great to see you all again.
Well done to John for organising us all and getting us to park in a circle. It certainly looked good and we had no problems with Indians all afternoon!

What a great show. Good to meet you all again, and some new faces as well. The air show was great too. Looking a little 'lobstered' this morning though dispite the sun cream yesterday. Hope to see you all again soon.

There are some very good ones by Supraman in the Photography forum. I'll add some later.

Many many thanks to all PHers who came along yesterday, particularly the first-timers who I hope enjoyed the day and will join us again, if not at Lavenham then somewhere next year.

Ultimas are on the up, beating Nobles 3:0 for a change! We would have had several more cars but people had either sold it (Ian!), had it dismantled, were off with Gandhi's revenge or trying to retreive daughters from pop concerts! Next year I might go for a complete circle...

Well done Tuxman for making it to the ring No doubt Pauline will be giving you tips on how to win - I can reveal that the secret is to smash it up twice and rebuild it Well done Daniel though, he earned it.

Ian has put down his elephant gun and is planning another 'Raid'. Rumours have it that it will involve cars and beer, so turn-out should be good!

Look forward to meeting some of you again next week at Lavenham; after that I shall relax!
