Just to add my thanks to Simon, et al for a great weekend. Managed to get the S3 back home without too many problems. I could not get first or second out of Exeter services but gently pursuaded it into third . Booked into D.G. at the weekend, so hope to get it back in time for Gang on the Green
See you all next year (T&P II) - if not before.

Incidentally, as I headed off south on Sunday, I noticed the nearest Shell garage was only at the roundabout just down the road. Make a note of that for next year.

Also passed a blue Tamora heading north (towards you lot) 5 or 10 miles down the A30!


Got your camera back yet Simon?

Speaking of cameras, I took a few pics I could post on a page somewhere if anyone's interested.

Also, where's the "Group Hug" photo? Was that your camera MBS3?

Sorry, don't have enough web space for Fred's movies!

Yeah we saw the Tamorra, miserable sod didnt wave. Strangely enough he came from behind us though. He must have turned round or maybe there was two of em. More likely we were all hallucinating after too much ale.

Yeah, didn't wave back to us either.

I was going south passed it going north, you were going north, therefore it came from behind you.

Hang on, it caught up with you!

Just goes to show we're good boys (and girls) tiddleypom , actually, more throbbing from the heads than the engines and still perfecting the hand (throttle) job.

I was warming me engine up - prescribed Tuscan proceedure, no more than 3k revs until 50 degrees oil temp etc

Camera is supposed to be picked up by Colin (my passenger thru Newquay etc) today Bless HIM!

Yes the Tamora was GTS Blue the same as mine, he was very arsey - maybe that's a thing with Tamora owners, we passed another one on the way down to cornwall and he ignored us as well, free beer Tamora hey!

I'm submitting an article for Sprint, wether it's in August's issue or some time later (or not at all!!) I don't actually know

So which dates for next year then ?
How many people max ? Questions, questions ?

Sounds like you need to come down here on a Sunday when we have a c3c meet and we can work it out over a warm coke!

Ok - here's the links to the 'Group hug' pics, along with a few others - enjoy

One is definitely crying out for a caption competition....I think you'll know which - entries on a postcard please!

Oh, and if anyone knows how to upload pics to Fotango so that you can use one link to access all of them, please let me know!
