Could you all put what you consider to be your best photos on disc and send them to me please. I will then include them in a seperate section on the DVD.
Thanks,
chris.

I'll pm you my address when you've got the cd ready for dispatch.

Chris you cheeky ******** charity is everything Anybody donating, as Visa sent me a letter about the unusual amount of action on my card. They thought it had been stolen. Even called my Dad as they couldn't reach me, so I am clearly in need.........

Sonja was admittedly very excited when she realised that we were on holiday with the Hoff. She wasn't so excited when he broke out his flask of coffee and chair She is now in Florida on the beach recovering. Not fair huh?

Wicked pics Chris

Martin, your welcome anytime. Wicked pics.

Hi everyone

Just finished sorting through all the photos and finally got round to uploading some of the best here. Enjoy!

Eleanor and I had a great time; we took the day off on Friday but nevertheless managed to rack up over 2100 miles over the course of the week. I still have a numb **** from the run back home yesterday

If anyone has any photos of my car on the 'ring, would they mind please emailing them to the address in my profile? Ta.

Andy

Yes - BIG thanks to Terry for organising the Trip - it really was Fantastiche lol!!!

Great to meet everyone and special thanks to Terry, Stormy, Stuart and Paul for letting me loose in their Awesome motors - this really made my trip - thanks guys

I'm enjoying the sun down here in Dijon and the EVO can't be fixed, so is being shipped home

Percy and I are heading back to The Ring to meet the MLR crowd tomorrow, then back home on Tuesday...

Great pictures guys - will post up some video clips when I return home

CW42 Chris - I can send you my DV tapes once I've downloaded them on to my computer next week, if you want?

Great trip - thoroughly enjoyed myself - if anyone's ever up North and wants to stay in a Castle and do a couple of laps at Knockhill, let me know!

Cheers

Rog

Hey Rog - glad you had a good time mate and enjoyed taking a few motors around the ring - I know the Pug was fun but the chance to drive a few others must have been great.

I will definately be taking you up on your offer of Castle Accom and a day at Knockhill in the future. As I'm sure a few others will too

Cheers

Terry

I got: 2567 miles, 300+ litres of fuel, as some of my reciepts didn't have a fuel amount on them, and roughly £422 in petrol.
I did have to pay for all that, and it's been worth every penny.
I'm trying to email you all the 3 group shots I've got, but they're 7mb even when zipped up, so I'll host em, and you can download from there.

In your planning, if you can arrange it so that you meet with us locals on a Saturday or Sunday there's sure to be a much bigger turnout next time!
