Default Holker Meet!!

Hi Everyone,
Just arrived back from the meet, most enjoyable. It was very nice to meet everyone and to now be able to put faces to names. Many thanks to all involved in the organising. The line of 75/zt's at the Lancaster services looked very impressive as I pulled in and there were some fantastic motors at the meet. One favour i need to ask... I pulled out my camera and took some pic's, only for it to tell me..."can't record". In my haste to get off this morning I'd left the card in my PC because I'd been downloading some pic's of the QE2 last night. So if anyone would be kind enough to e-mail me some piccies My add'y is JT at the club e-mail address.

Many Thanks!!

What a fantastic day! It was good to put names to faces at last. Weather wasn't as bad as expected either. Well done everybody that helped pull this off.

Just under 50 cars, won a prize on the raffle, Names to faces etc. Great day. John, hope you never need the touch up I gave you. Jules, thanks for the demo, Keith, well just..thanks as usual, again, will try and find the bits you need.
Hi to everyone else I met, too many to remember, Dave T, Jontie, sorry memory not what it was......

Just installed a trafficmaster prior to meet and it warned me about the traffic jam @ lancaster on the way back.... so I drove into it to see if it was accurate. It was Doh......

Great day out, more cars next time please (and a sat nav for Simon)

A great day and well done to everyone; Chris, Ken and Pete in organisation, and everyone else who was there to make it a success. The only downside was the M6 coming home, must have passed Ken 10 times in the queue, only to see him wave as his lane moved on ahead again!
Will sort pics later:lol:
