Meet Report and Pics from Xmas Meet 2011
Another post from your romping reporter . . . .
Well what a great meet that turned out to be - 15 x 8's and a couple of "guest cars" and good to see many old friends and also great to meet so many new faces! Can I just thank each and every one of you for making the trip however far you came but an extra big thanks to those of you that came from as far as Scotland, Yorkshire and Cornwall! The weather held out even more than I could have hoped for and The Leopard Inn did us proud with the food and also with organising some large bench tables so we were only in 2 groups. Personally I think it would be great to try and do a Xmas meet like this every year as otherwise there is such a huge gap between the last meet of the season and the first meet of the next year. What does everyone think? I will post some pics up shortly for all to see, and for the record here is who finally came to the meet - Architex Ma8tey Briang9 & Connor123 barzyA8 Daviesbike & his missus - thanks so much for producing the great 2012 calenders for us all! ChalkyWhyte DarrenJoe90 & Mandy HPSauce +1 Sarg (Boxster) + 1 Oli18 ConanTheLibrarian (CtL) RanjA8 Ainarssems - thanks for bringing the oil! Reffro Trophy885 Sundayrider Adrian_E Singh - Amar in his RS6+ JustBen - thanks for making it right at the end! Here's to a wonderful 2012 for all of you and of course to a gr8 year ahead!

Thanks from us too Neil for organising, and also thanks to Guy for the Calendars, was great to see old and new members again and we had a great time. Didnt get home till 10.00pm, weather and weekend/new year traffic made the journey a bit longer, however cant think of many places I would rather be for 7 hours than in my 8, never feel tired or stressed at the end of any journey in it. Connor has a few videos of some blue rep mobile charging up and down the road outside the Leopard which may be of interest to some
 will try and get them posted tomorrow.cheers all

Hi Chalkie,
So sorry to hear about you Dad after I left you yesterday. Hope he is okay going forward. Many thanks again for the QS wheel & tyre. On another note many thanks to all of those who organised the meet, it was great to put faces to names and meet people in the flesh. I for one had a great day. Crap drive home though due to weather conditions. Looking forward to the next meet. David (barzya8)
