nice to meet a good bunch of car owners, i didnt really talk to anyone other than ox. but she was with me and didnt want me standing about boring her.
Downside of the trip, getting ready to leave and seeing nearly everyone else had gone. And getting lost on the way back. came off the A45 onto m42 and
headed for brum, unfortunatly for me it was M42 south west then m5 then m6, added about 30 minutes to my drive.

What a great day thanks for all the shropshire massive for arranging things.
It was good to meet you guys , faces to names and stuff. i enjoyed the convoy more than the show.Little things like when we lost you at the lights in
coventry we thought s**t where do we go now?? but just over the hill there you all were waiting thought that was a nice touch as you didnt realy no us
like the others you could of carried on but didnt . Quite funny realy everyone did 60 70 ish on the way there so as to not break any thing but on the
way back ...ahhh F**k it give it some stick
couldnt let you BEC have all the fun.
Ox , does shake the floor a bit when its cracked up , bloody love it !!
and yeh will be at newark

I'm glad to hear they behaved better for you. As soon as they got a sniff of Oulton they dropped it down a cog and f***ed off

!
There is always next time. PS what date is Newark ? Same time /place to leave ? only kidding.I know you will keep us posted.
Excellent day had by all,thanks.

Realised it was you as you went passed.Not going too fast as motorway arround Birmingham is very bumpy and shakes the hell out of you.
Close to where you passed me did you see a "three wheeled rolling chassis ?" on a trailer being towed by a Picassa.Wonder if he had been
at Stoneleigh . Just wondering what it is, any ideas ?

Mike,
I saw that chassis and it looks very similar to a 3 wheeled hill climbing car i once saw with a bike engine and rear swinging arm all grafted in the
back..........kind of ala Grinnal.
I agree it looked quite interesting too.
Im after a look at the video too if anyone can host it?
I have a 3 minute crap quality video on my phone but thats it
