Larry and i had a fantastic week-end.
Many many thanks Rich and Gary for putting all this togeather, the Hotel was great. just wish they would have turned the water feature off at night so we could have slept with the window open
i am dead impressed that you managed to order the weather, i never had to wear a jumper or fleece over my t-shirt all week-end. i could have travelled much lighter had i (beleived you) known in advance

We got home about 2.30 after a 4 and a bit hour drive back.
What a wonderful weekend.
Thanks to Gary and Rich for all their hard work.
I loved every minute (apart from my constant coughing!)
Caroline had a great time too.
Great to meet some new people.
I really liked being back in the BumbleBee with a new found confidence in it after all the work I've had done. It felt great and there were some great roads to experience.
I've realised I've hardly taken any pictures but here's a couple.
And remember all - take time
oh, and best I change the forum name back to normal now

That's a great pic! (if Sladey wasn't urinating in it!)

some wonderful shots on this thread
Gary, I'm surprised you managed to get that photo .... you must have a quick trigger finger as we did kind of take you by surprise
. Did you get a photo of the 'sheep' on the next bend ?

Surprised it came out myself! I hadn't really planned on the sudden 90mph arrival
