Mrs H here: Oh.....and thank you for your assistance

And thank you Mr. for not giving me a ticket for getting a little carried away while driving through the tunnels!

Great day everyone and superb photos. It was good to meet a few fellow PHers. Bit of a dodgy start to the run though but what a lot of fantastic cars. Maybe a longer run next time would be good. Cheers.

Was that the plod who met u at the roundabout just after alderley edge what happened.?

Yes it was. He followed us for at least 5 or 6 miles more.

My car started coughing a bit and decided it needed a rest on a bad bit of road.

Because plod was following, he stopped right behind me and applied the blue lights. I jumped out to explain the situation and asked for 3 or 4 minutes to get the lump going again.

He was on the verge of calling a recovery team quickly due to the the bad location of my short stop but gave me a chance to get it going again.

After a few attempts, it fired up again and he gave me the thumbs up.

All credit to him, I think he was more enthusiastic about seeing such an array of well presented Tiv's than he was prepared to let on!

Sorry I missed the run-I had a very late start this morning so didn't get to the Romper till 2-30pm!I still did the run out to congleton though in the vain hope of catching up with everyone,but,I only saw one car(hi again,yellow wedge!)Still had fun though!
Hope to make the next one.

Nice to meet you all yesterday.

The tunnel blast was fun, the yellow wedge (Nick?) behind me sounded excellent

By the way, ended up having a McDonalds in Congleton.

Had to keep my daughter happy you see.

nothing wrong with keeping the kids happy..stops 'em moaning.

My little boy (John) managed to fall asleep on the way home, I must need a louder exhaust pipe.

So you were just trying to keep him awake going through the tunnel?

[lazyitus]

Richard, after all the e-mail contact I'm sorry I never got to speak to you. Sometimes difficult to take in who is who when everyone is meeting for the first time!

Will speak again no doubt!

[Psychobert]
