Didn't see the 2002 in any of the pictures ...
Boxster sadly as took it for checkover first up north.

Was a good choice TBH as it kept me in the front couple of cars and we were.....errrr....pressing on :lol: :lol:

The picture in the insert was taken on the way home from the 2006 Up North Tour. That's the image at full size, digital cameras have progressed as has the house.

But the car and the driver havent changed a bit..!

Another brilliant DDK weekend, there really is nothing else like it.

Thanks James for putting in all the hard work as ever :cheers: :cheers:

Nearly took the 356 but it had a seized caliper - but probably a good thing as I needed everything the SC had to keep up :shock: :bounce:

Thanks to James for all the organising, as ever, excellently pulled together and great to catch up with everyone.

After having to stop to close my bonnet more times than I'd like to remember in the first 30 minutes on the Sunday morning, I eventually turned around at the Tan Hill Inn and limped back to flatter roads and the long haul back to London, but still, a great drive, caning it most of the way.....750 miles in total over the weekend.

Until next time...

As posted on the other thread (thought I was going mad, was sure I'd put a thank you somewhere :roll: )

'Thank you James for a wonderful weekend. It was fantastic to come up Norf again 8) .

Really lovely to catch up with everyone, and the driving / scenery was amazing. Particularly great to see some DDK faces I'd not seen for ages.

I have got well settled into the 996 thanks to my 1020 miles in the last three days, 450 or so on the Sunday by time I got home.

All best,

Barry The Snail.

Nice to see some great photos, didn't take many as we didn't pull up very often, too busy on it.
Great weekend though, thanks to everyone that went (great crowd) and James for organising such a great hotel and some of the best drives I've been on in the UK.
We're in for the next one.
