Looking forward to seeing the T-shirt Mick!
It's great. Powder blue - I'm wearing it now. Looks cool with my Calvin Klein boxers & Doc Martins.
Well done Nicky - nice t-shirts. I might model it to the next meet. cool

Woody went awol on Tuesday morning, last seen heading northbound, hope he's ok.


Is that the new sat nav. you were telling me about then Ceri sonar ?
Didn't work too well today did it evil Saw you at the start - saw you at the finish, but where did you get to on the run-in then scratchchin ?
Stop off at some more dogging dodgy lay-bys again whistle ?

Thanks for the run-in Jon. Some good roads there, just a shame everyone else was on them too curse .

Great run - thanks to Jon for organising and for leading (even if at one point you led us into a barn and an old woman attacked us rofl ). Seriously though dude, top marks, as usual, Beds and Herts car club would be empty without you.

Was great to see the usual croud, special thanks to MarkL for the quick blast in your Lotus (window shopping hehe ). Looking forward to the vids

Just a quick note to say thanks to everyone for another great day!
I've got a little video footage which hopefully I'll get posted up in the next few days.


Cheers,
Mark

P.S. Shabs, next time you need to take me out for a spin. I've been to 4 TVR meets and have still never been in one!

shame I couldn't make it......

car dropped off for sevice, and it is officially confirmed I have a major overfueling issue hehe ... as if some of you didn't know rofl

this is what is causing my car to smell like a mobile petrol tanker scratchchin ( as if I hadn't worked that out myself) .... the black soot I've left over the front of many of your cars and blocked particle filters on some old aston smile , and also my hot start issue as its flooding the engine........ so hopefully all will be fixed and back to my 270 horses.... may be a few more, if i dig deep in my pockets but we will see what the root of the problem is I think smile

I did kind of notice last time when I couldn't breathe whilst following you and my perfectly waxed & polished car ended up with black polka dots all over it hehe
Hope you get it all sorted OK anyway!

Looks like I missed another great run as well - mine is also still in the garage having yet another alternator fitted and also trying to get to the problem of my ECU fault. Hopefully see you all next month!

sorry I couldnt make it chaps. looks like i missed a great run in to the meet(as usual). my tuscan is at a garage at the moment for a second opinion on a recent intermediate service that was undertaken because it still feels rough. second opinion awaited!

I'd like to see the video Mark, to see what i missed, waited ages in that layby in the picture above, not a Tvr in sight, just the local wildlife for company laugh

Was a cheap round back at Tudor's though and perfect timing yes

The run-in was rather hectic hehe Really sorry we lost Tamster en-route. Was probably my worst leading yet! Was so tired and had not planned the route as well as usual rolleyes

Great pictures Lewis, and great video mark. Really must get my video gear working...

Next months meet is the Kimbolton? meet. I will be tearing around the Isle of man with the Lotus lads and lasses so no run-in from me. Would also like someone else to have a go at putting together a run-in or two! It is great fun leading, but I have done a fair few now and would like to sit back in the pack and give someone else the chance to offer something. Plus I'm sure you are all getting bored of my local area laugh

Somewhere along the way I got a puncture! Rear tyre was nearly flat when i got home.

Mark, thanks for coming along on the runs and posting videos!! You are more than welcome to have a drive of my car at Brands in a few weeks. May get you to buy a TVR? or a supercharger for the Exige hehe

Hi Jon,

The video is ok, but certainly not my best! It was a bit rushed as I knew I'll have no time during the week. Loved the roads - the ones in the video looked faster than they felt at the time.

Looking forward to Brands although not sure it would be the best place to drive yours. We'll see on the day!


Cheers,
Mark
