Right then for those who want to travel up tomorrow afternoon please be at the Homebase Store in Brecon anytime between 2.00-2.30pm. I want to be leaving there no later than 2.45pm, if you're not there then quite frankly tough.
There are a couple of routes we can take but rest assured they'll be a nice drive whichever way we go.
I also have the stand passes for the Sunday show so please make a point of coming to see me to pick yours up.
It'll be a great weekend I'm sure, it was in 2011 when I attended the first one.
I will point out that the North Wales Constabulary are known to be very hot on road safety / speeding and as you'll be in a big group of cars we will all be very noticeable / visible.
Take care as these are public roads and not a race track or special stage, have fun but take care at the same time.

I've got an emergency job to do in the morning (the joys of self employment) I then have to give the car a wash before we leave as I've not had time today due to picking up my new toy . I'm hoping to meet you there in time but if not we'll meet you there. Ty, I'll probably drop you a txt to let you know if we're running late not to mess you around.

As Chris said we really enjoyed ourselves and thanks to Ty for organizing the SWS membersAfter getting back we checked the oil which seemed to be ok but after taking the rad cap of found a thick emulsion around it which we all know is the dreaded 2.5 HG failure,after speaking to Dean at the Arches I am safe in thinking that a 2 grand bill is lurking in the distance.
Happy days.

Yep what he said , I hope it wasn't me missing a gear when giving it the beans .
Dad you need to get them to test it first , when testing the oil all seemed well though and not milky . Me personally am not convinced to be honest . Temp was rock solid and ok loss of oil but that could be a million things .
Having said that I'm sure the lads would agree that if it is 2k is a steep bill but the car is worth the input .
Pulls like a train , handles well even though very stiff ride and it's a looker .
Back to point in hand as well though great weekend to be honest .
Still smiling about the places we drove through , seeing the people in the towns made you feeling like being a royal ha ha .
Thanks dad and thanks SWS for having me , can't wait to get my motor now to come to meets and events with you all , you made me feel welcome and that's rare .
