Home Again
Did everyone get home safely>?
Nice to meet 2 new members (nots13+Datdrift) It was a nice weekend away. BBQ was a bummer on the sat night. Robert Dyers are probably going to get beaten up by claire next weekend i should expect  . The weather was good for 90% of the weekend though and our plot wasnt too bad and we were in a decent location. Ive caught the sun a bit amd am looking forward to having a shower and an early night tonight..

1 hour of wind and rain over the whole weekend is fine enough for me.It was hot other than that.
Yep sorry about some of the site admin not turning up or letting us know.  .Other than that we had enough cars to get noticed and look interesting which was one of the main things

I thought it was very good overall. The weather was good overall. That storm as a bit of a shocker but that's the UK for you!
I agree with Jon, it's a shame that some of the regular forum visitors (some of which had their names on the attendance list) didn't turn up or even let us know. Perhaps S12OC should charge £10 upfront for each person attending a show. That way people might actually bother to come when they say they will and the money can go towards club beer, BBQ food, etc. A bit of club funding from the members would go a long way. Currently, the stand equipment, web site hosting, food, beers, etc. are all provided by a few of us where as it would be nice to see a donation from everyone to make it fairer. Not to mention we could fund some sort of entertainment (as SXOC and all the other clubs do). Looking at it that way, a tenner each in advance to have our cars on the stand isn't a lot and it would show us how many people intend to turn up when they say they will. Overall I'd say it was a good weekend. Many thanks to everyone who did make the effort to come along and it was nice meeting up with everyone again and indeed meeting some new faces too. Nice one guys n gals

Jon and I got back about 8.00pm yesterday.
I really enjoyed the whole weekend. Even thinking back to the awful storm on saturday makes me laugh because Jon was running about in the hail, rain, thunder and lightening in a black bin bag  trying to save our tent. The gazebo nearly blew away in the 70mph winds, whilst everyone was hanging onto it I was busy taking pictures I can't really think of anything I didn't enjoy. The trade stands were quite good, we had a fireworks display right in front of our stand , I really enjoyed watching the drifiting in the arena and more than anything it was just great to see everyone again. Thankyou Richard for providing a generator for my hairstraightners, and thankyou to everyone else for turning up and providing lots of food and drink for the club

I only took 25 min to get back cos i live 18 miles away! i would definately cough up a tenner to help fund for a show. count me in on that one. did anyone see me on the a1 about 11 at night? i was trying to watch out for some race action seeing as it was a jap car show( ie lots of power) and it was held right next a nice straight wide road? saw a bit.
