From another forum I'm on (I think we made an impression, heard a couple of people mentioning us :D)
The Volvo lineup was ace, I'll try and get my pictures up tonight. I took a fair few.

I'm just disappointed I couldn't bring my lairy mudflaps with attached saloon... Oh well, next time...

But yeah, lots of people thought the V3M turnout was great, guess that means we ought to make a reservation for next time then :D

Jason I didn't even know you were there or I'd have said hi. I'd like to say sorry to everyone for not being very talkative, I was a bit hungover, distracted, and really dreading the 4 hour drive home followed immediately by the ten hour night shift. I promise to be a lot more chatty at the next meet we have.

Would like to see some pics of our lineup, think we had the biggest turnout of all. There aren't many pictures of us on retro rides, except for my 'signwriting', I don't think that means we weren't accepted though, there were plenty of people looking at the cars, just there was plenty stuff with more visual impact.

oh and I was keeping a low profile after having my wrists slapped for hooning around the car park and a bit tired from my gravel raking session

hahahahahahaha, I was wondering what the "got rake?" comments on retro rides were on about!

naughty naughty!

I thought they were implying that one of our number looked like a farmer!

In fairness, it was the crossplies on the 54 pop that did the damage to the gravel, not my 185s, or the 20s on the merc. But I took the rap like a man. What I can't believe is that we didn't get bollocked for all the other driving antics, with 5 people in the pop.

It was definitely worth the reprimand. :lol:
