Default Posers Piccys - Dial up beware!

At long last after being a member for almost a year I finally made my first Southend Cruise!!

Lots of traffic about - I was wondering where the hell I was going after passing the sea front and following others to the roundabout and then back again, but seeing others do the same thing, I realised it was all planned!!

Piccys - 16 piccys from the Tescos Car Park before we shot off.










Also - as a warning to anyone using the M25 anti-clockwise - I noticed tonight on the way down to the Cruise that there have been SPECS cameras installed going from Brentwood to the M11 junction - double checked on the way back home after the cruise and there is a pair of cameras 1 mile after the A12 Junction and another pair 2 miles before the M11 Junction.

Didn't see any warning signs about any speed checks, but did see a few roadworks barriers on the hard shoulder (but not all along that stretch) - so there might be something about to start there - so BE WARNED !!

People may have missed this, especially as I stuck it right at the bottom of the piccys, so put in a seperate reply just so it's obvious

It's an ultra wide 10-20mm zoom I was playing with. I was probably less than 4 ft from Phils car for that shot...It does distort the perspective somewhat
