What a fab weekend in Cornwall at 'Tiv's n pasties'! Great bunch of alcoholic loonies managing to bring Newquay to a standstill, but then Newquay managed to bring our spectacular convoy to a standstill. Never seen such an incredible public reaction.

fantastic event! to 21TVR Simon for so brilliantly organising it. Many many thanks to Martyn and everyone at Plume of Feathers for being such wonderful hosts.

We now have a new PH handle "Porno Fred" (dont ask) . and Martin, do you sleep on your front????? "Just Trouble" lived up to his name!

Wonder how many people have ever seen a TVR with a hand operated throttle @ xxxmph!?! or seen a chim creating crop circles!

Great people, great venue, great fireworks, great event!

Simon can you put our tickets in the post for next year. Hope to see you all again soon.

Tony, Di, Lauren and Kev

Now how did I know who would be the first up on here . Got to agree, it was a great weekend which we'll have to repeat next year.

Well done Simon (21TVR) for the organisation, couldn't have been better, unless of course you leave out the hangover bit. Good to meet up with such a fun (if a touch off their heads) bunch of people. Oh and those shorts!

I seem to remember there was only one acceptable answer to that occasionally repeated question. Only trouble is I've forgotten what it was, probably the beer . It does that to you, pickles your memory. Perhaps you'd better ask it again.

Roll on the next one.

Martin .

Hee Hee, and by the way thanks for the blast in the Noble. What an outrageous form of transport. Superb.

Breaking news!!! My passenger Colin has phoned Padstow Harbour Commissioners and they in turn have spoken to 'Cyclone' - they have between them recovered my camera!!!

Outstanding Colin - you are a star!

(more nonsense on here as soon as I have time!)

I don't know Lady T, What are you like ?

Excellent weekend!

Great food, beer, company, cars, fantastic time! Thanks Simon. Thanks every body, it was great to meet you all.

Good news about the camera, hope it finds its way back to you OK. Actually I'm suprised a seagull didn't fly off with it, if it was left in Padstow!

Are we going to get to see some piccies then? Don't think I got caught on "digital media" doing anything incriminating, the camera was lost before the "holiday" shirt came out!

Nice drive Saturday, good route, though I didn't expect Newquay to be that crowded! I didn't get lost once, in fact when someone pinched my navigator I was the only one that didn't get lost!!

Thats Martin and Tony for giving Jane a ride, she loved it and I'm jealous!


Cheers,
Andy

Hi Andy, Blimey, I forgot the shirt, it upstaged everyone elses dress code, gonna have to go some to beat that next year, but I will try. Great to meet you and Jane. Maybe next time she will bring the bike.

Nice one, I hadn't spotted that . Then again, nobody noticed we'd lost you for at least an hour so that's not too surprising.

Good news about the camera Simon, who was it that was saying there are still a lot of honest people about? S'pose we'll have to wait in fear and trepidation for the photos now .

Lady T, I didn't mean it honest. I meant I'd forgotten the answer. Was it no? How does Tony do it? I reckon he's got a secret stash of ear defenders .

Thank you Lady T or should I say Lord T, and the Pastie Gang

It was a pressure!

Great event as you all say and I look forward to next year and 'Tivs 'n Pasties II' start booking now - which weekend ? the same one ?

Don't forget your tool kits and your shirts!

Check out the Tuscan Forum for a write up of how that fella with the throttle trouble faired - who was it again ? I didn't catch his name!

Tough Simon we've already booked direct. There is no way you are doing this again without us. A long way away but do you have any thoughts about a visit to the Eden Project and perhaps a beach BBQ. Hmmm, thinks, why wait till next year when we still have half the summer left,or am I being a bit over enthusiastic? Anyway wheres our invite to the Cotswold region???You know we love to travel.

Seriously for a minute (oh God!)
Bow Tie Phil said that he would provide a bateaux and some skis. I like the beach BBQ idea

You are all welcome to the c3c Region anytime you like. How about the Tuscan Driving Skills Day this Monday the 14th July, or another one for c3c on 28th July, or maybe just turn up to one of our meets...it's time for e-mail!
