;D Excellent turn out everybody. And well done Jon for organising everything. Typical of the british weather, but I think everyone made the most. The highlight for me was the cruise to Newby Hall, we were near the front and to look in the mirror was a brillient site! Lets pray for better weather for the VW Festival.
Cheers Shaun

I agree Shaun the cruise to Newby Hall was fantastic, a proper convoy and looked the business. Just a shame the weather had to spoil it, I hope everyone got out of the site without too much difficulty. I noticed Derek got stuck but managed to get clear. Sun, sun, sun for the next meet please. anyone know any sun dance rituals? ?. Cheers Gez and Linz (Ruby) PS auto jumble went, some one got a right bargin!!!!!

Cheers, but it was all you guys that turned up what really made it a success. Thanks a lot to Wendy and June for helping with the balloons - sorry about scaring the s**t out of everyone wit the helium cannister , won't be doing that again! Ta to all who helped dish out voting slips and helped on the stand. Congrats to Shaun and Joanne for winning the little show n shine comp - enjoy the whiskey guys!! ;D Real shame about the rain - I really feel for the organisers, but all in all I think it was a great day out.

The amount of interest from the public was great and so many voted for the Show n Shine, well done to Shaun & Joanne. Roll on Harewood House, and lets hope for less rain Cheers Mick

Yup, it has to be said. What a top job you 'organisers' did on Sunday. Trying not to be biased, but our stand did look really professional and inviting. Which did appeared to show in the amount of interest our vehicles got. My hat is removed- well done Jon and co. Shame about the weather.
look what polishing your coolbox has gone and done now snowy!!!
