Cheers for posting this Brian. Sounds like it could be a good day out.

Time for a bump anyway and we can discuss it with members at Gretna as well and get a few more along.

Are Jaguars welcome??

Thanks Derek, I am sure Jaguars will be welcome at Gretna, but do you have something to cover it with

. I am also sure we will have the bonnet up for a look. I have booked a few days in the Lakes the week prior to the meet at Lakeland Museum, any excuse to be in the Lakes is good with me

. It is a museum worth visiting, particularly for those interested in Donald Campbell's exploits on speed records.

Hoi!! I'm always watching you know

. Mondeo is bad enough, but at Transit you're pushing it!

Anyway, not my fault if you can't keep up, I had the cruise set at 70 to make it a controlled convoy.

i always get those fords mixed up as they all the same lol think i maybe 2 blame for speed of convoy, leaving abington u, flyer, freebird got out i had to stop for some old duffer going round roundabout then a van, so by time we hit motorway u had bout a 3mile start. so it me that drove at silly mph (wont say incase it held against me) to catch up and everyone behind me did same. mind for an old ford it moves lol

well the day arrived to do the invasion, i turned up at abington at 9.10 just on the off chance anybody wanted to go along but lo and behold after wasting my time and waiting 20min it obvious i was 2 be the lone soldier. well to all that didnt go u missed a great day out at an excellent museum which i,d recommend to anyone. spoke to blujohn and family there who are genuinely nice folk and took some great pics, which i cant be bothered putting up really, as go there and see for urself. thanks to general freebyrd and bluejohn for arranging this.
