Just got home.

What a fantastic day. Absolute top marks to Matt for organising the day and the food. and then to top it all, do all the cooking aswell (with a little help from Wilf).

Hope Brokedown Van Man got going ok. Sorry we had to scoot, Oz had been shut in for 13 hours He was a bit desperate, bless him.)

Pics of the day to follow ( took over 400! ).

Again thanks to Matt and his little group of helpers for making the day.

I saw you lot from the pit straight stand. Flags flying, gazebo (fortunately not flying!) etc. You had to be the only group to do anything like that? Excellent!

Spally & Co getting told off for playing football in the circuit - the marshalls btw thought that they were about 11 until he came round to where we were: lol1:



Probably the best car club in the world



One of the action

Finally got in just after 10, van was dropped off at the garage.
RAC towed me out of Brands and left me there on an un lit side road for about an hour, that was fun!

Big thanks to Sara for the use of the RAC card, would have been really stuffed without it. thanks again

Also thanks for all those that tried to help, or just stayed with us for moral support, cheers.

Whilst i'm on a roll, cheers Matt, well organised, food was great


Tiny, hopefully the van will be fixed today, if so i'll drop off the bbq this eve.

glad you got home ok in the end yvm. fingers crossed it'll be an easy fix for the garage.

no probs about the food guys. really enjoyed sorting it all out. roll on the next one.
