Uhh, I'm shattered. I've been up since 3 in the morning, and I've just come back.
But, it was well worth it. I had a brilliant day out, and everyone seemed to enjoy it. I think I've caught the sun, even though a lot of the time it was rainy or dull. I knew it was worth it to wear a t-shirt.

It was also cool to meet some more members of this forum.
I've managed to upload a few photos onto my flickr account, and I've created a little set for the festival.

Was a good show once the weather sorted itself out, I think it's clear that Dantheman is now the resident comedian
Roll on E38, don't think I'll have the audio by then but maybe for the Polo Show - *EDIT* Just looked at the date and it's September 2nd and 3rd so hopefully the Audio should be in.

He did say it didn't sound right didn't he, hope it's not going to cost him too much.
Dan, you really should have taken up my offer for a ride in the GTi, I really pushed the car around the roads on the way home more so than I usually do

yeah, maybe another time eh!! dino went a different way out of the pod to me, but we still managed to meet up later and convoyed all the way until dino's turn off!!
m25 was a nightmare, got home at 7:20, 3 hours after leaving!! saw a few show cars on on the way home, went across the dartford crossing with a Seat Cordoba and a Green mk1 golf, both from Havoc Gti!!

was behind me until I got down Bedford High Street then I turned off.
