Arrived at Berwyn 12.35 to be greeted by some very shiney cars so we've hidden our 2 round the back

Log fire is very welcoming and the mystery Ale is devine.

Remembered 5 of the guys names so that's not bad !

Especially Dave and those who helped him put it together. The weather on the Horseshoe Pass was pretty dismal but the varied colours of some highly polished MG and Rover cars shamed the sun into coming out and trying to outshine them.

At the Ponderosa. Thank goodness our cars had the colours to brighten the gloom.

At Plas Newydd with Castell Dinas Bran on the hilltop in the background ........ beautiful sunshine

Bob even had a dry car when being presented with his prize for the best turned out - Redfive

Splendid photos there, looks like this meet will be a popular one to watch out for. Sorry i couldnt make it today.

Big thank you to DMT68 (Dave) for todays Llangollen get together. I was really impressed by the enthusiasm and dedication of so many members , some who travelled considerable distance in miserable weather to make the day such a success. Dave you were quite magnificent , you showed the sort of commitment that makes this club so special. Thank you to the unflappable member who took charge of the parking for the photo shoot, and well done Mr and Mrs Jules for attending my humble abode and eating my biscuits.

Really enjoyed meeting DMT68 Dave,Westonboy, Cimmeron and wife, and all the other members who attended.The weather may have been not very good, but the company was. Really enjoyed the meeting at the country house. Trouble is the time goes to quick. Must thank all those who took part in organising this meet. When's the next?

What I great day its been today. Fantastic company ,Good food and brilliant surroundings. Seen some lovely looking cars and was proud to be part of it. Driving through Llangollen in the long convoy of 20 odd Zt/ 75s turned a few heads in the town as we took over the roads while passing through. A pretty awesome sight ..A big thank you to Dave and Westonboy who put in the effort to make this day so great.
It was nice to put faces to usernames on here and look forward to future meets.

Thanks to DMT68, Dave, for organising a great day, even if the weather was wet, but the sun eventually shone through. Good to put names to faces.

FLYING BANANA · 8th March 2015, 19:49

Just home from a fantastic day out. 4 1/2 hours home. Road works and a nasty accident on the A14. We covered 451 miles on the round trip, got quarter tank left.

A GREAT BIG THANKYOU to Dave for putting it altogether. I really enjoyed the day. Even the rain didn't dampen the day. Many thanks to Westonboy and Westongirl for finding us a lovely spot to get some nice photo's together. Nice to see some old faces and new ones.

Many thanks for those who voted for Redfive, Well chuffed at winning a trophy, and beating a well turned out 260. Sorry Pete.

Next time I'll bring Banana.
