Home Again

[Claire]

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

yep we all enjoyed it, tomo200 was disappionted that he could only come down for the friday, as he was going to ibiza at 12pm on saturday nite, yeah i bet he was lol ,yep good fireworks display, lots of food and drink, i'am glad non of you turned up as early as me, as you would have seen me hanging off of the fence, trying to stop the field from spinning , as i had no breakfast and started drinking and tried smoking somthing that had been freshly mowed , other than that i enjoyed it, it was very pleasing to get dens beastie running something like for him, it was a three man job, den pumping the clutch,jon opening and shutting the bleed screw and me supervising lol ,rich, i'd deffo throw some wonga in for next year if it would help.

That's cool Shaun

I just think £10 for each person or car attending would give us enough funds to supply all the food, plenty of drink, etc. Also we would then have a good idea of who intends to actually turn up, rather than have a long list of attendees who don't show up.


I took the generator as I was under the impression that disco gear was being brought up. That'd have made it all much more fun for the kids. At least Claire made use of the power for her straighteners though!!

I'm not having a moan, I thought it was a really good weekend. I'd just like to see an equal amount of input from everyone and if someone really can't make it at the last minute, a telephone call wouldn't go a miss to let us know.

Who didn't turn up then?

i couldnt tirn up due to not having a lift to get there but i do understand where richard k is coming from i would suggest that in future events we can contribute £10 for food and drinks i dont see it being a problem i do apologise for not making it but my poxy rover 100 would not have made it and being bloody wedding season everyone i know are either getting married or going to weddings so a lift was impossible sorry again

Yep thats cool. Its good that all the expensive things are actually paid for from 'paid members' a year or so ago. That took the big bill of the gazebo etc out the way. Subscriptions just are not really going to work as i originally thought as i have hardly anytime as it is anymore to do paperwork. So just an individual contribution per show attendane would be the best bet.

We were going to have dj equipent and a tv and playstation Rich but Firstly Dr silvia couldnt show as his cars poorly and he couldnt get the tools and parts in time but that was fine as he did let us know. I wont go into other no show-ups as these things happen and its done now.If we were a big club with tens of thousands of s12s still on the road it wouldnt be a problem.We cant really blame anyone but ourselves for choosing to have a rarer car. I also had to bring double the amount of luggage this year as i was the only person coming in a car from down here instead of 3 people so i couldnt fit anything else in my car.

All this only really effected us in the evening though and the actual show itself wasnt effected at all and was a nice weekend.Although i was quite worn out at work today.

We will have to come up with some club actuivities ourselves next year and have a mad pissup competition i recon. Hopefully i will have more money next year and definatly my car should be looking spanking and much better than all yours . I was brasic this year as my headgasket and turbo went last week and i had to work late through the evenings after and before work and cough up £££ to get it done in time to get up to the event

How are your Tyres Richard?
