Thanks for coming everyone . . . .

I didn't get much of a chance to take photo's (plus mine are crap anyway) . . . so please could you send me some for inclusion in the PCGB mag (and also for the archive).

A big thanks from me to Mark and Jo for all their hard work and to the rest of you for making a northerner feel most welcome.

I was 'forced' to drink far too much vodka red bull the night before to be in any fit state to take lots of photos, so this one's about the best I managed:

Give's me something to work towards... now when is Barry coming up north for a holiday :wink:
2006 RHD 997 Carrera (but DDK remains in my heart - also now no longer)
1972 LHD 2.4T with '73 2.4T CIS motor - gone to a new DDK home
1994 RHD 993 Carrera - gone!
1968 LHD 911L - was the Wife's but now in new hands :-(

Don't worry, Ian, I'll bring the tools ....

Great to meet everyone again, really regret not staying at the hotel: sounds fantastic, esp. the view onto the car-park!

Looks like its going to become an annual event (if comments yesterday were anything to go by), all credit to Fred Hampton and the PCGB guys for a really relaxed event. Think some catering over in 'our' field next time though? :)

I certainly hope so. Was gutted missing this. Glad everyone had a great time.

Thanks guys for a well organised event. Paula and I both enjoyed meeting you all And for putting up with a replica. I will have to get my finger out and organise a trip round the rolls royce factory. BAZ

Sonja & I had a really great time too. I think I'm even being forgiven for turning our 10th wedding anniversary into a car-fest.
Thanks to everyone involved & esp. Mark & Jo.

I know want a 911T/R as well as the ST, 914GT, RS .... :shock: :)

Ian, Peter and Martin seem to be taking a very special note of the 'art'

*wonders why*

Whilst Viv, pretending to be in deep discussion with Nigel, has an eye on it too. :wink:

I think, if you study carefully, you'll notice that Sonja & Jo are intrigued too :shock:

That's where I ended up at 3am - I was worried I had fallen into a dungeon of punishment and had been trussed up!

No wonder you had a haggered, yet strangely blissful, look Sunday morn'
