And due to the mutual respect that Dazza mentioned that doesn't happen.
I have had the pleasure of leading this fine bunch of reprobates out onto the Queens highway bound for Southend for some time now, not fogetting to pose ALL the way past the Kursaal.
By using 2 lead cars & two way radios we try to keep a tight control on the event.
And the rules of play are posted each month for all to see & abide by. Particulaly Rules 1-3.
DO'S & DON'TS FOR ALL POSERS
1. No doughnuts , flamefests or letting us hear how nice your exhaust sounds in Tescos car park . This is our home please don't abuse it .
2. Once on the move keep checking your mirrors & when other vehicles get stuck in the convoy please indicate & move over to lane 1 and let them filter through .
3. Once in two lanes try to keep in your lane & please indicate if you must change lane mid convoy .

Well Concorde or MiG fighter they have all got to get past the Stealth Wagon & the other lead car first.

Pezza WITH RESPECT
Its not petty when you accuse a well established well behaved meet of being attended by muppets!
As Chris stated the cruise has been trouble free for the many years it has run.
Please don't be so quick to judge
I don't often bite on these things but you are talking rubbish IMHO

Though personally my immediate thoughts where along the lines of James Mays favourite comment, ****.

Back to original subject of the thread lol lol
I have had a thought last night 
if you exit Daws Heath Road in Rayleigh at the bottom directly on to the A127 Southend bound you don’t go through the average camera at the weir, you actually only pass 1 of them before the 40 mph limit and the 40 mph speed camera so they can not work out what speed you are doing on that stretch

Hmmm.....me thinks i have upset some of you!
We ALL know how fast our cars are, and we ALL blast the right hand pedal now and again, BUT how many scoobs have been involved in accidents in the last 2 months?
SEVERAL is the correct answer, ALL due to people who cannot drive their cars sensibly.
My rant over on this subject now, obviously peoples opinions are varied, and i voiced mine.

You are not wrong but you labelled the posers cruisers as "muppets" which couldn't be further from the truth
Perhaps a little thought BEFORE posting would ensure that you don't upset people

There may be some mileage in this for me yet
When there is a change in speed limit there is supposed to be a large sign informing you of the change in limit followed by regular smaller "repeater" signs.
If you join the A127 from a slip road (I'll need to check) I think you only see the smaller "repeater signs".
Who wants to get prosecuted so i can test it

My personal opinion on the "credit crunch" is that it does not exist!
We have a government spending spree, Brown got himself a BUTLER last week, with OUR money!
If they STOP wasting OUR money and start using it SENSIBLY, then we would all be better off for it.

FFS if you want to start going on about something completely unrelated to the original topic AGAIN, go post it somewhere else. Preferably another forum all together
