Annual Meet Report 2016

Right well here we go again!

I'm just kicking things off with a weather and road report approaching from the M4 and over the bridge into Welsh Wales.

Traffic was a bit thick around the M4/M5 junction and queues at the bridge tolls but most of the bad traffic was heading out of wales. All other roads were fine and the hot sunny weather that your romping endeavour reporters ordered during the reccy has arrived!!

See you all soon . . . .

When you've all finished using the good weather this weekend, make sure to pack it up and bring it with you to Ireland. Currently 22 degrees and sunny, but can't have enough sunshine.

Enjoy the meet, all.

It's been beautiful here (Glasgow & Helensburgh area) for some time. It reached 25C the other day and my patio furniture is worn out!

Hope the weather is great for the meet and the Ireland trip

Just a quick one.
Gwen and I arrived home safe at 20:00 hours.
A really great weekend, hot sunny weather and no rain till we got home.
Treasure Hunt on Saturday was fantastic, we are getting divorced next week (only joking, 'cos Gwen got her own way).
Photos to follow, I'm too tired to do anything at the moment.

And for those of you in the know; Gwen was surprised, was also incorrectly dressed but we managed. The caves were well worth the effort, though they were rather damp. SWIMBO kept catching the cold water drops in her hair.

As for the Steam Train, we missed it by two minutes. We could hear it but no sightings. Serves me right for trying to surprise Gwen with the caves and Shire horses, but they were lovely.

I promise, I'll find time to post photos in the morning.

My car took more cleaning than expected, so understandably, everyone left.... :D

What happens in Wales stays in Wales..!

Those are some great photos.

It was a fab weekend, my first Audi meet and I really enjoyed it, especially the treasure hunt, even if the Germans beat me!

I still can't remember everyone's names. Hopefully I'll be at the next one...

Nah
 
Let's hear all about the parking incident 😂

Johnmed 5th June 2016 10:34 PM

Looks like a great meet. Sorry I couldn't be there. (Currently in the back of my car being driven by SWMBO in Barcelona.)

If it's any consolation I can't park my D3 for toffee.

A good enjoyable weekend away. Nice to meet everyone, lust over all the cars, and to have a drive round a very pretty part of the UK :love:
