Big thanks from me as well to organizers, sponsors and everybody who turned up and was giving raffle prize donations. Another great meet as always, looking forward for pictures and videos to come. Downloaded full series of 'The Prisoner' which I never seen before so my schedule is filled for today.

A big thank you to Neil and Stephen for, in particular, organising the cars from Audi and Tesla. Not having driven an RS6 before it was really interesting and instructive to drive the S8, A8 and RS6 (didnt get picked for the RS7
 ) to see how they compared. The battery powered cars were very interesting - almost made me think that this was the way ahead. Trouble is, given the current state of infrastructure support we would have had to go to Glasgow via Edinburgh to get a charge in order to get home the 323 miles home. The "Insane" mode in the second of the two was truly that  .

Like everyone else, a massive
from me to the organisers of this meet as it was the best I have been to. A massive thanks to Inchcape and Tesla for the use of their cars which was fantastic.Also, a bigup to you all for putting up with my none A/S8 (hope I didn't bring the event down too much) and all the new and old faces - always good to catch up. Cheers to Ian and family for sorting out the accommodation on the Saturday night so I could have a few beers. The acceleration of the Tesla will be with me for some time to come I think  Cheers Andy

The special effects are a bit laughable by today's standards, but it's worth watching: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6Ffr1U7KMY Might have to download it myself; it must be 20 years or more since I last watched it. I wish we'd have taken more photos now, but we managed to take a few ... 2015-05-30 09.28.06.jpgP1030671.jpgP1030677.jpgP1030679.jpgP1030685.jpg And a small video clip (leaving Portmeirion): https://www.dropbox.com/s/ce97kybwdr...00037.MTS?dl=0
