A huge
must go to Paul, @pgunter for volunteering
to organise another trip around the New Forest. The Mints had a terrible 3 hour drive down to the area on Saturday, as it poured with rain all the way. We met up with a few fellow forumites, @pgunter, @Alan Slade, @Nodzed, @mid life crisis, @Oldguysrule, @Lee and @Shortie_gal at the pub and had a great evening. Thanks Niall
After a (very) late night we were up early at the crack of 08:30 for a relaxed start and headed off to the meet point. We all had a fantastic drive around the New Forest finishing up at a lovely pub for Sunday lunch. The weather was outstanding, especially for a December day. Thanks to all for a superb weekend, we really enjoyed it. Great company, great cruise and great weather, what's not to like.
Sorry, not many photos, these were at a stop in the Forest.

a very lively evening. I was very happy that the Sunday was enjoyed by so many as the weather was just spot on for December.
