That's a shame Bob, will catch up with you soon Sir:}

[coolcat]

Blimey,
That was a cold meet!
Someone forgot to switch the current bun on:D
Anyhow, a great turn out in rather cold conditions.
So cold that I forgot to take any photos for the first time.
I think Mike done the honours anyhow:bowdown:
MrShed,
I don't know how we managed it but after we emerged from the pub back into the car park I think you had already left;)
Can't say I would have wanted to freeze out there today!
Anytime you do want to have a play your more than welcome, just give me a shout Sir.
Look forward to seeing you all again soon:)

[Mr_Shed]

Hi guys n gals, good to see you all even in the freezing conditions. The chips and tea were a great break from cold lol. Seemed to of got separated while talking to the MG guys so didn't get chance say good bye, had to rush off as Aaron had birthday party to go to.
Coolcat, sorry missed you but time ran away. Would still like to catch up at some time, hopefully in warmer climes.

[FLYING BANANA]

[yellow peril]

[coolcat]

Hi Bob and Steve,
Mike ( woof25 ) was taking photos.
As it was trying to snow and I had Ros with me I decided against running around with the camera;)
I think most peeps went for the warmth of the Pub but it got so busy in there that everyone lost site of everyone else:}
But there was a good selection of cars that braved the biting wind and cold:bowdown:

[coolcat]

Just remembered, I took one picture on my phone:D
