I too am from Lancashire (although I spend an awful lot of time in London), and as George says, it's a lot like Yorkshire but better.

I was trying to work out how many of you guys are 'Up North' from looking at previous outing posts and i didnt really get anywhere so i thought i would ask!
I live not too far from Leeds and only ever see the odd 1 or 2 other Astons tootling about and im not sure if those owners are even on this forum?
I went to cars in the park at Lotherton hall this year and noticed a small hand full of Astons parked up, but how many of you live in and around yorkshire?
Jamie have you not seen the thread covering the last Astonauts outing.We met at Leeds and it was a blast around the North Yorkshire moors. Steve did a great video of it as well.

I am in South Yorkshire, just north of Sheffield.
A rare sight indeed to see another Aston around these parts.
(Though somewhat bizarrely, my neighbour has recently bought a 'baby'whistle Aston)

I'm in North Yorkshire - I do see a few DB9s around and last year in our local restaurant (Crab & Lobster at Asenby) there was an Aston Martin Meeting as there were about 15 in the car park, everyone having lunch.

I'm from Leeds and I was at Cars in the Park @ Lotherton this year too - Mine was the MF White V12V. I chatted to quite a few people there - were you one of them?

I did see a white V12V in the line up, from memory there were also a couple of DB9's and a black vantage and i think a really old blue aston turned up, not sure of the model?
I didnt chat to anyone as i had my little ones in tow screeching but i had a quick wander around.

This may explain the similarities in your outlook on life between you and the Georgeous One, Slarti
