Well well, what looked like being a disaster at first, turned into the biggest Wycombe meet ever!!!!!!!

Nice one Paul, and I have to say a huge thanks to the South west scoobies, Surrey scoobies, the SIDC lot for stopping in, and The Wrexer for driving from Southampton, many other thanks to everyone from SOX-JAPOC etc and to Mr Palmer for his organisational skills

Mark, I`ve locked scooby in the boot, and alarmed the car, which in turn has been locked in my garage with my company car parked over the front, which is also locked and alarmed. You cant be too careful when theres Chavs like Little un (lins) living so close by and Middlesex Subaru owners lurking in the shadows waiting to pinch anything which shines or has any value. Magpies, the lot of em

Good turn out guys and gals, nice to see you all.

We didn't quite make the numbers of the mixed meet last year of just over 90, but we did have a static count of 50 at one point, with others drifting in and out over the day, total was around 70 cars. Scooby's making at least 95% of this total.

Plus Points:
Great to see the green covered in cars again
I now have even more pics for the pub website
CSL finally got long deserved wash that was needed - sorry cesil i so lazy
Finally put Gossy out of his misery and took him for ickle spin

Bad Points:
Weather was horrid
I had to work more than I was hoping to
Table of 3 left without paying for their lunch!!!!

I reckon we can manage another meet before the winter really takes hold, and the green turns into a swamp, what do you think??????????

Nicky

Thanks Nicky, I look forward to seeing your pictures too

We couldn't help the weather but it didn't seem to spoil it too much, it did get really nasty towards the end though

I'm up for another Let's try and get a date set for one more before the weather gets too bad.

I was shocked that people left without paying I hope they know who they are and it was an accident.

Nicky, thanks for yesterday, sorry to hear that people left without paying I hope it was a complete mistake and not intentional on their part.

Hows about us Subaru`s joining a VW end of season meet? I`d be up for that.

pub site is www.thefleur.net

For some reason does nt seem to be working properly at the moment, but service provider did send an email saying they are doing some maintenance work, so hopefully all will be fixed shortly.

I have been asked by the village committee if we would be interested on the 15th October (saturday) in arranging a big car meet, auto jumble that kind of thing to coincide with a craft fair fete kind of event, how about this for our end of season meet????????????
