Unfortunately the better half informed me on Friday that she's 'on call' that weekend, hoped to be able to find a work around this morning but to no avail, the joys of working within the NHS supply chain at the moment.
So it's a reluctant cancellation for me I'm afraid.

Sorry to hear that mate, hopefully next time.

Hi all,

A quick update. After yesterday’s announcement GH have said we are limited to 30 people on the 13th. if you’ve paid already you are ‘on the list and confirmed’, if you haven’t yet theres only a handful of places remaining for lunch.

Yeah, as Andy has said we have now got a limit of 30 people so the people already paid are confirmed. We have currently 26 people who have paid so just 4 places left.

Please can you let me know if your still interested in this day out as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

The main list is on page 1 for further details and venue details are on page 4.

Thanks. We were willing to make our own lunch arrangements.
I seem to recall that the one I organised in the north that there were plenty of people who did that as the pub was full.
It was great to have more cars on the run out itself.

I'd love you to come James but unfortunately we are limited to 30 people.

I've been organising this for along time and you've had plenty of opportunity to be put on the list.

Due to Covid restrictions we have to keep to numbers and I'd hate for people to either get fined alot of money or get sick.

Plus if owners want to upgrade there cars they can goto AM Newcastle themselves.

So maybe next time.

Bit of a strange comment that one.

The comment was referring to Paul Thursby (Newcastle AM DP), if anyone wanted to ask him anything they could visit his dealership, that's all.

[paulrog1]

Sorry to hear you had to sell your Aston, hope things get better and you can get back into the marque.

I lost my job last year also but luckily i found another so was able to keep the Aston.

As you know we are now full for the venues but if anyone pulls out i will let you know.

You are very welcome to join Andy and I after lunch, if not they'll be another run out August time I'd imagine.

it's hard keeping up with the V12s in my lowly 4.3 V8

You were able to keep up no probs.

The afternoon run out was ace, Andy in his DB9.2 rocket ship in front, i was just about able to keep up with him, and Myles then Steve in their V12V's behind giving full beans!!!!!


Having a day off today, gunna clean the car this afternoon.

Myself and Joy would like to say a big thank you to Andy and Paul for organising this, for doing a stellar job and to everyone we met who made us feel very welcome. We’ve never been to a meet like this before and we really enjoyed it, we’re looking forward to the next one.

I’ve been considering upgrading the ‘55 DB9 to something newer, despite other priorities, and I’ve seen something else which I can’t get out of my head!

Great to meet you and Joy on Sunday and really glad you both enjoyed the day and defo go on the next one.

So what have you got your eye on??

Wilky7 said:

I’ve seen a few DB9.2s which, as I may be investing in a new business, would be a good upgrade on mine rather than getting a DBS/Vanquish

Great choice Damien, IMO they're the best Gaydon car apart from the mk2 Vanquish. I'll probs get one sometime in the future.

The great thing is they have the same engine as the Vanquish but power limited to 510 bhp, with an easy reflash the power increases to 565 bhp and primary decatted to 585 bhp.

Andy (soofsayer) is your man he's done the above and his DB9.2 is a ballistic missile!!!!.
