I hate that too - Just had a weekend meet/party at the house of another member from another car forum and there list of who was coming was about 15 ppl - only 6 turned up and 80% lived closer than me but still couldn't be bothered driving there - So much for car enthusiasts.... :roll:

I drove from mine in Dunstable (J9 M1) to Cardiff and other can't drive when there half the distance compared to me!!!

yeah, i absolutely hate that phenomenon ... get yourself a good party list on the go and then no bugger turns up but for a few regular liggers, with nary an excusing phone call or anything... ruins the atmos something chronic.

(which is why i always said i almost definately couldnt make it this year - better a surprise attendee than an obvious no-show)

All the usual animals were there anyway, it was like a bunch of cavemen at a feast.

I didn't say I was coming, so that rules me out!

I spoke to Steve Sherwood as he entered the petrol station I was just leaving. He told me it was an excellent show.

Good to see you guys again, shame that its same old faces though. *cough* Metz and CBurns*cough/* :lol:

Anyways, glad to here you all got home ok. Well apart from my mate Rob, he's currently on the intensive care unit in Rotherham General Hospital. :lol: Only joking.

Those lot of you who didn't turn up cause it was a bit damp, (panzie's) it was a good show. But alcohol does tend to brighten things up.....or erase the memories of rain. :lol:

See ya next year guys. :wink:

Mat
