Is its ok if I'llmeet you all at caerphilly garden centre? Im hoping rob manuel will join us as well. He'll probably meet up with me enroute to the garden centre somewhere.

Cant wait, it'll be kingpins first run of the year, and Ive got working brakes now, oooh. I burnt them out on the last run on the hill down from Maerdy mountain, helps to have working rear wheel cylinders I suppose! :lol:

Cheers

Steve

As usual Ray, a fantastically organised run. And you even sorted out the lovely sun for us all as well. Many thanks for my bottle of vino and certificate as well. Ive taken a few pictures of the day. Unfortunately because there was so many of us :wink: I couldnt get them all on one photo, so apoligies if Ive left anyones car off.

For some reason the website has chopped the right hand side off all of my photos. Apoligies for Karl and arwel especially for showing only half of your cars. I can forward you proper pictures of your cars if you wanted it?

Great weather, good company and enjoyable day out. Will bring the factor 40 next time as my face is rather sun burnt!

The shutter on my camera must have been playing up today so most of the photo's are not worth uploading. "not like that, like that".[frame]Image[/frame]
"Doc, I can't stop singing the green green grass of home."
"That sounds like Tom Jones syndrome. "
"Is it common? "
"It's not unusual."
So I was in my car, and I was driving along, and my boss rang up, and he said
'You've been promoted.' And I swerved.
And then he rang up a second time and said "You've been promoted again.'
And I swerved again.
He rang up a third time and said 'You're managing director.'
And I went into a tree.
And a policeman came up and said 'What happened to you?'
And I said 'I careered off the road.
So I was getting into my car, and this bloke says to me
"Can you give me a lift?"
I said "Sure, you look great, the world's your oyster, go for it.'

Ok Ray, won't mention the clamp but thought this Tommy Cooper Joke was appropriate (last one I promise).
You know, somebody actually complimented Ray on his driving today. They left a little note on the windscreen, it said 'Parking Fine.' So that was nice.
