Had a fab time meeting everyone and their motors. Talking car stuff and catching up. Thanks for all the great pictures and most of all, big thanks to our trusty twosome (Neil & Mike) for making it all happen. And, of course, our sponsors A8Parts

Yes thank you so much for the great organisation!

It was so nice to see you and your beautifuls 8s. The treasure hunt was great and lead my poor blue car through paths of the Breacon Beacons where no A8had been before. Well, maybe except of Peter's S8. ;-) Marvellous scenery! (naughty scenery also grazing and reaching for the underfloor of my S8)

Thinking of the National Botanic Garden of Wales there must've been some indignant looks of nature lovers suddenly being confronted with a whole lot of A8 (and even someone wearing a shirt "doing my bit to climate warming").

Also the locations were great. Perfect choice!
















Hopefully many of you find your way across the Channel and come see us in Kassel 12th to 14th of August.

Its just 364 miles from Calais Ferry Port to the hotel ;-) And from Unna onward (once you have passed by the Ruhrgebiet) there should be rarely any speed limits if at all. Your cars would sure love that

Hi,
Zum einen kann ich danke Ihnen für unsere treffen sich in Wales in diesem Jahr teilnehmen, dann kann ich entschuldige mich für nicht mehr Zeit mit Ihnen zu verbringen.
Ich muss mich entschuldigen auch für nicht sehr gut zu sein bei in Deutscher Sprache zu schreiben, auch wenn ich höre, dass meine Rede angemessen ist (einfach nicht genug Praxis haben).
Now if you will forgive me I will stop struggling and hope that you are able to understand me.
Having spent nine years in Lippeland (Bielefeld and Detmold) with the British Army my German should be much better.
I am attaching some photos that I think you could be interested in that I took over that weekend.
As much as we would like to attend your Annual Meet I am afraid that due to prior commitments this year will be impossible. We also had to miss last years German meet but we will do our best to make next year's.
Gwen & Ray

Welcome on to the forum Vera!
If you want to post pictures you can upload them on this forum so they will stay there forever - we are lucky to be able to have pretty much unlimited storage

Great pictures Vera!


info* you can do it two ways, you can embed the pictures like you have done or you can click the little paper clip icon and just upload them and then they just show as little thumbnails you can click on
