Where do I start ?

To everyone who was there; congratulations. A great rumble !!

To the Speed 6 owners; what a noise !! Just how do you get those cars barking ?

As for the Cerb owners who turned up; I hate you all laugh; I just HAVE to get one and scratch a longstanding itch (Kostas, Nicky; it's all YOUR fault).

To the guys and gals who joined me on the run up from Reading, thanks for dragging yourselves out of bed at that unearthy hour.

Good to catch up with a few old friends, and meet a number of new faces. Hope the Chim with the dodgy alarm, flooded Cerb and Griff with alternator problems all got sorted (bringing a backup wedge was a clever move!!).

It was the run around Whitehall that really did it for me, having made it late last year; the sound off all those cars blatting up and down there will be in my memory for years to come.

Lastly, a MASSIVE thank-you to Dave for all the organisation work; I know how much effort went into that, and it's much apprecaited.

Oh, and to whoever posted the "get over it" comments on the 2007 threead, you should have been out today.

Off to the Cerb classifieds,

Mike

Another funny bit was I drove into the Strand and there was a line of TVR's so I joined.

"Hello - I'm Dave" said Dave
"So am I"
"and me" said another...

Many thanks Dave, my first tunnel run,shout think im a bit mutton after following some of those Tuscans!, What a day, What alot of noise, Blatting up and down outside Whitehall with you guys raised some smiles, think we should all pay a visit to Livingstone next year, before he bans us all from doing this again!! What a hoot,

Must return a quick hello to Keith who a couple of us met in Thurrock this morning (lovely Ultima) hope you had as much fun as we did!!
