Hi Greg

Having stumbled across this post and putting 2 and 2 together (hopefully equalling 4!) I realise I bumped into you last year at the trimmers (whilst you were working on the headliner) and the again at Woolies as you were fitting the engine - and not long before CLM (I was there getting some help with a few little jobs on my Oval beetle).

Good to meet you and very much enjoyed looking round your lovely car - great to see you made the trip too!

Hope to see you out and about on the Norfolk lanes when the weather picks up!

A Norfolk get together or two is a must for this year

Yes, lots of options around Norwich and Norfolk from Route 11 cafe to Ketteringham Hall orangery. Also out to the coast dare I say even Yarmouth. Something on the A11 would be easy for people to get to, assuming its more than 2 :)

Count me in too! Will have the 356 out of hibernation next month. I’ve been to Route 11 for a car club meet on a Saturday morning fairly recently and they get a good turnout, so we could possibly gate crash one of those events. Would be good to catch up again Greg (& finally meet Bootsy in person!)

Sounds like a plan, when are you on the street again?

Well what a very good weekend result. Not expected given both the amazing Porsche's and VW's on display at this years Volksworld show. I drove down on the Friday in appalling weather and then back on Sunday night.

Runner up best in Porsche class and 5th best in show overall.
