Bloody car rolled down the drive with the handbrake on and smashed into the concrete fence slab. Bugger! Will Duct tape it for sunday I think. Weather forecast is pretty grim though.

Looking like I may not make it, was supposed to have a new kitchen fitted last week, but the builders are starting on monday coming and I still have to pull the ceiling down and the old units. If all goes to plan like it rarely does then I may get over later in the day.

Just heard from (a rather drunk  ) Cowboy who's staying close to the venue tonight. Thanks to our interpreter Dave  , I've now got the postcode where we're all going to meet up to sort out the convoy into Stanford. There's a car park which is plenty big enough for us all at; LE17 5BZ I've got Karl and Dave's mobile numbers for when we get closer so they can direct us in.

Late notice guys but I've bad news. The Italian Meet has had to be binned due to my sprayer carting the car up to Carlisle. He had attended Tatton Park show and was with his dad so it made sense to save a load of cash/time by having him drive the car up. Repair cost is £350 which is great and will be back home in time for the Lakes Meet2 in October. Besides, he's the only one that knows the secret formula for the paint job.........

Sorry I couldn't make it either, we were going to come as a family, however Barcelona airport lost our pushchair yesterday and it hasn't turned up yet. At over 2 stone she's getting too heavy to carry far either, when she loses the use of her legs  , maybe next year

well it was a great day and once we got there and cleaned all the shit of the car, the weather managed to stay dry until i got back home. I met some more great forum members who i have spoke to on here but nether met so that was nice, also saw some nice cars including coupe. I suppose the high light to the day was that the coupe members that where there, will probably be famous as the is an gentleman who has bought a coupe so he can write a book on them, and will be using info and pics from our cars. Cheers every one pics will follow.

Glad you got home okay and hope everyone else did too  Taffy/Trev, sorry for disappearing off at Knutsford services, but I was dying to go to the toilet  I also dropped 20p at the toll, so the barrier wouldn't lift and had to search for more money before the barrier would go up  Was good listening to you all drag racing out of the toll booths though  That was a bad way for me to go though, an extra 40 miles and an hour onto the journey compared to the way I went in the morning. Was a good day and nice to meet some new people  Oh and hope you had a good birthday Cowboy
