I'm presuming the following are staying at a B&B locally?

- Paul (Ferryman)
- Barry (media star)
- Mr. Moss (in a 993? :lol:)
anyone else?

The following people are joining in for a BBQ and a few drinks :drunken: :wink: :lol: :drunken:

- Richard & Jane (targa/red)?

I plan on lighting the BBQ around 6:30pm - you're welcome to turn up earlier but I have got a meeting at the house until about 6:00pm.

If you could all bring a bit of something for the BBQ I'd be most grateful - plus something to keep you liquid

Any problems - my mobile number is on the list in the Members Section :-)

Look forward to seeing you all

Philip

As discussed Phil. I'l confirm if you have another to crash on your floor tomorrow. See you all there. Good fortune on the way guys and gals!

Where's DDK's official photographer - 'Mike' meeting us?

Thanks for the invite Philip, but as we're leaving London very late we'll now be staying near the M6. Have a great evening though :drunken:

It's with great sadness that I have to pull out of the Highland trip :(

As a few of you know, and now apologies have been sent to Brendan and Mike, I have to say I can't join you, the reason being I've sold my car :shock:
People who know me will realise how much of a wrench it will be, but the good news is that there's a new project in the pipeline!
Can't say anymore at the moment but by the time you are all back from Scotland there may be some news.

I know you will all have a great trip and once again you'll enjoy great cars in the company of great people, which is what the DDK is all about.

See you soon 8)
cheers, Mike.

Hello Everyone,

I will be leaving a meeting in Mansfield early in order to get on the road by about 3.30pm on Friday. I presume I will join the M1 at junction 27 and make my way oop to the lodges.

At this moment, my car apperently failed on 15 items on its MOT. It begs the question why, with its full service record, this wasnt picked upon earlier but I'd rather have the guys finishing the car then that I get agitated. Nonetheless, I will be in Scotland and I hope to be with a 911.

Are all the mobile numbers listed in the members section still up to date?

I will have a list with me (just like last year) with the participants details should anyone need it

Catch up soon and keep it safe!

Mike you will be sorely missed so why not come away, and then when we get you drunk you can tell us all about your new project :) Remember it's about people as well as cars.....what do you say?
