Hi guys

Sorry to let you all down at such short notice but I won't be able to attend today, I had a call an hour or so ago
And my grandad has passed away so need to be with the family. Hope one of you picks this up before you set off. Again really sorry I was looking forward to this but family must come first.

Enjoy your day all

Thanks lads I had a brilliant day managed to keep the mats dry.
I was well impressed on how well the Fronty coped no drama's

It was a bit of a trek to get home the sat nav took me on the motorway but I came off at Banbury and cut across country to save my hearing still managed to get home in daylight (just).

Sorry to hear the sad news of Gazz's granddad

Firstly really sorry to your news Gaz :(


What an enjoyable day :D
We all met up at 1030am as arranged on a very crisp morning. We had a cuppa and chat before setting off :D
We did a variety of lanes and fords throughout the day which were enjoyable.
As Tom said didn't take many pics as it was to cold and wet to get out my nice warm truck :D
No real breakages apart from Alfie getting his carpets wet and losing his front number plate in the ford :lol:
Jason engine management light come on again but we just reset it :lol:
My v6 was coughing and a spluttering after one of the fords but a few revs soon sorted it out :D
A few pics and videos
