Excellent day out. Mikey & family turned up at mine just before 8.00am. We set off soon after. 
Only just got on to the M5 & passed a silver Golf (at speed) only to see the driver flashing & waving. (I knew I'd seen that grin somewhere before)  At first I thought I'd pissed him off, then I reconised PIGGY. 
For some reason, I thought he would tuck in behind & slipstream me to save a bit of fuel.......... but no....... he couldn't keep up. 
 
Had a good drive to the show,no real hold up's at all. 
 
Once inside we made a bee-line to the Z1OC stand. Two reasons.... Mikey had some polishing to unload & I had some ebay goods for Mr Padders. 
I have not even been a member for a year yet, but the welcome is always a good one from all members...... North 
and South.
Met for the first time today; 
Padders.... Thanks for the ££££. 
PJ... sorry the conversation was short... but interesting all the same.
TED1R...You're a very welcoming geezer.
Jerry.... we didn't really speak, but I thought you'd be a fat old grunter.... how wrong was I? (sorry no offence meant)
Hutch... Mr painter
Hobbo... No sorry, met you before (Ace cafe I presume):no 
Chris NI... Good to see you in the flesh, after several phone conversations.  Will that project ever be finished 
 
Phil Churchett... A true gent. a bedrock of this club.
There are more I know, but after eight  bottles of Stella, I have now cracked open my second bottle of wine 

 So  I feel I need to post 'this post' before I expire (for today at least)
