Somewhat quicker than last years photo montage. I cheated and used the same template I made last year.

The dashcam footage is around 25 and 50 minutes for the Saturday run, so might do two versions of them. Not looked at the 360 stuff yet (other than to check the photos on the Saturday night), but I got it thoroughly drenched going through Wales on the Sunday. It's been in the hotpress for a week.

Great photos Sean. You certainly have a good eye!

Thanks Sean. Great photo reel & I love the aircraft identifiers - very thoughtful. +++

Good memories, but still a bit rushed though on some of them.

Yeah, used their logo and photos of all the plaques I took as I went around.

You take excellent shots Sean, and you've captured much of what we did on that day. Thanks +++

Here's the first two videos using the dashcam footage. It's the first part of the drive on Saturday, with two different versions, the real-time version and a speeded up version.

Real-time version (21 mins.): https://youtu.be/qAvYBXMhf9w

Speeded up version (5.5 mins.): https://youtu.be/xf3dFP5xCMY

An excellent weekend, many thanks to all the organisers and to Sean for the imaging.
Also, not a D3 in sight - what does that tell us? (Not even a V10 S8 :eek: )

PS I had a standard online follow-up questionnaire from the hotel which I completed honestly, fairly and constructively. The manager sent me a personal response by email!

Agreed on all the above: although there was a green D3 (and a W12 one at that! ;)) that pulled out of the road opposite the hotel as we left on Saturday morning, and was sort-of-part-of our "convoy" for about mile or so, before he turned left - not sure if anyone else spotted that though?...

I also gave the hotel similar constructive feedback via email, as part of getting them to correct the overcharging on my bill :rolleyes:

Imagine my surprise as I am on my way to Aldi, I'm about to pull out of a side street and opposite I see a nice A8 pull out, then another, and another and another (possibly an S8 in there somewhere too if I remember). Then I get waved out by another A8 owner and I join a convoy on my way to pick up shopping!

I found you lot within 5 mins of getting home and joined up to just say hello but I've only just been allowed to post.

It's a 54 plate D3 W12 in murano green.

Aha! So that was you that I saw - glad I did imagine it and that it was someone on here ;)
