Just back home from a (mostly) lovely day out. The drive down to Ross was dreadful with driving rain most of the way. As we got close it brightened up so for the rest of the time we had some great top down driving in the sunshine.

Thanks @NODZED for organising it. The food was very good too.

It's always good to meet up with old friends and make some new ones. Pics to follow but only if I can find my camera case with the cable to download them.

Glad you had a good day @Gail
Looking forward to seeing the photos

Great Day out, Thanks Niall for organising this and thanks to everyone else involved in making a great day out, we were so lucky with the weather, had the roof down all day except for the last 2 miles when coming home.. had to stop in abergavenny for a comfort break total covered about 150 miles, car run faultless just could do with maybe some new shock absorbers and bushes at some time. very twitchy back end

Great to meet some familiar faces from the zedfest run, and some new ones.

Thanks Again Niall for leading the way home too sorry didnt get chance to say goodbye to you and a few others... hope to meet up on the next run, I post some pics and upload a few videos to youtube later

well, what a great day and turn-out, even the sun was out. don't know who Niall bribed to get the weather but it was a bonus, well organised day out, thanks Niall (@NODZED ) for taking the time to do this, looking forward to the photos (did Steve manage to get that photo at the lights which had turned green? really funny). just got back from my trip into Herford, just a bit miffed I couldn't do the whole day, but Family stuff was calling. Great to meet old and new members, always a great crowd.

Marvellous day out today had a good drive around some fab roads and autumn colours everywhere! After arriving at the meet point
a little later than expected because they had closed the bleeding road on the Heads of Valleys, so had me a long diversion to drive
around! Niall cheers mate for such a well organised cruise, I have had the route handed out on other days but never before been
given one with photos of every twist and turn, it was impossible to get lost!
Niall nice one.

Our second port of call was Tintern Abbey

 

[Nodzed]

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who attended the cruise, risked the weather and travelled so far, you all made it the great day it was, and thanks for looking out for each other, we didn't loose anyone in a 23 car group, amazing.

I can only hope you all felt it was worth it. Thanks for your support.

PS Also whoever remembered to bring the sunshine with you .... Thanks

 

[Shelly]
