Excelent event, already looing forward to next years with 'loo' improvements. Did make it to the evening wich is a shame as sounds like it was a laugh. Got loads of pics and DV shots including the jet car. 0-238 in 6.3 seconds. I see a mod comming on!!

Sorry for those I didnt get to meet especially rudegirl for the directions.

People pronounceing me as 'P-wig' instead of 'pwig' as in pig with a 'W' in it.

Best Moments...


2. Iguana, coming over to the TVR boys at 2am and slagging our "kitcars" (as he put it) off.... To which The Pistheads TVR band responded with a three hour Version of "porschia Boxtaaa" to the tune of Mull of Kyntire...He left defeated at about 3:15am only to walk straight into SMiles tent and end up on his arse, thus adding another verse to the song.....you just had to be there- awesome!



I tried my best and fought valiently against many foes, but they were many in number and while I fought with the heart of a lion I could not defete them

I do however maintain that in a superman/kryponite fashion it was the fumes of the GRP & glues wafting from the the Trevors that weakened me & made me unsteady on my feet

Oh dear - Im not sure i want to see this Why oh why do we always start drinking at lunchtime at these events - I told Zee this morning I am off alcohol for the foreseable.

I had a Fantastic time and I loved the Gatso's - Sounded amazing to me but then I was verrry

Great to meet more PH'ers .. Hello to all, sorry to those I didn't get a chance to say hello to

At least the tyre went out in a blaze of glory! Look on the bright side; at least you did not blow the engine like the scooby

Luckily for me, I remained the picture of sobriety and didn't do anything silly like that..

Ah - good pictures up already. Well done, folks! like Buster's.... ...will spend some more time looking.

Found some fabulous roads on the way out. Instead of coming home yesterday we decided to go west, exploring the A and B roads of Wor-cester-shire and Hereford - it was too nice a day not to get out there and pick up some new insects for the collection!

I see there's some constructive criticism going around - nothing really to add, just to say it was a great meeting place for chatting with new and existing friends. (Hoovered up various titbits about Tuscan ownership as usual - temptation, temptation )

As I wouldn't normally go out of my way to see the drag racing, and then we both thoroughly enjoyed the people and the spectacle, I thought it was really inspired to link in with an event like this. So it's a big round of for Ted and the team, the supporting businesses and all the PH family!
