Another great English/Welsh meet. Thanks to Alan for organising it and us. :)

Great to see Zedward off on his travels.

Just got in - out of the house for less than 12 hours and 325 miles more on the Zed!

Will post my pics on the separate thread.

Just to say thanks Alan for organising another splendid meet, really enjoyed the get together, the drive out and we were blessed with sunny weather :thumbsup:
Great to put faces to fellow forum members, nice to meet you all.
Also thanks to Dick Lovett for hosting the start, their hospitality and all their great staff who are as enthusiastic about cars as we all are on the forum.
Super day all round :D

Yes. you're all welcome to come tomorrow. Just come and find me at the showroom, so i can get you slotted into a group.
My apologies for the no show today after all your efforts organising Alan.

I did'nt work on Friday due to one of my regular AF attacks which went on into Saturday and I just did'nt feel fit enough to do a 400 mile round trip today, also if I had another attack that far from home I become a problem others don't need.

I will happily match Perry's extra donation on the pictures thread.

Glad it was a successful day and thanks for organising.

Regards,

John.

Thank you all for the "Thank-you's " and no problem John-E89. Get well soon.

It amazes me just how friendly & sociable everyone is. I would never have thought that 3 years ago when I innocently bought a Z4, it would have lead to the Forum and all this !

The success of the day is down to the willingness and attitude of all the members, so thank you. :driving:

Almost . He's come back home with me this evening for a bit of shirt tailoring, and then he'll be away for the weekend.mhowever, he's been out as Stuart Trumans Co-Pilot today on the Eng/Welsh run and has rsised some money, so yes, he's sort of started, but will be properly on his way by next weekend in a Wales direction.

Thanks Alan for organising today.

I really enjoyed it, I know how hard it is to organise people

It looks like we are all using our i phones to pray for continued dry weather in the second photo down

Giving me the urge to get to a few more meets before the end of the year summer

Thank you Sars. It was nice to meet you & your Mum. Would it have been +10,001 if it'd been Pheonix Yellow??
