I was

I have a windbreak thing and it's got three poles in it. I'll bring them along.

So that's 12 coops and three poles at Tatton Park tomorrow

Well done Chris and thanks for confirming T.

See you there in a bit.

Well an exceellent day had by all I think.

Good weather (forecast was heavy rain), good company (thanks to everyone for turning up) and we even won a Club Stand Award.

Pictures to follow courtesy of our resident David Bailey (C2D).

Finally, apologies to Solas - I'd been told no entry after 9.00am but that clearly wasn't the case with a Cobra driving through at 11.00am.

If anyone else wants to go tomorrow (we only have 4 coops so far), send me a PM or post on here and I'll sort a Pass out for you.

Great day, cant wait for the pictures

Wish I could go back tomorrow but dont think I can.

Need more people to go tomorrow!

A fccuking brilliant day you forgot to mention tomorrow they are handing out an award for the best coupe there if theres only 4 that means i've got a 1 in 4 chance of winning

Ooops - thanks for the reminder Paul.

Aww ta David Bailey! isn't he that ugly bloke with a speech impediment, always banging on about saving our planet and stuff


Was a great day. Weather held out just fine and it was quite a nice drive from the services to Tatton Park too

Nice meeting everyone and seeing the coops of course. Think i've met you all before excpt the guy with the ink Black (didn't get your name mate) and the guy asking about exhausts (didn't get your name either, sorry )

Anyway, here's the pictures:

Red Car

I have hi-res copies of all of these. PM me if you want a copy.

Will post pics of some of the other cars...... Including *that* Ferrari soon

Nice pics once again Chris.

One question; how did you get that angle on my coop? You can't even see the bumper cracks. Were you stood on anything?

Excellent photos Chris, as usual

Nice to see the usual people again and a couple of new faces

Thanks to Mabr for the smooth running of the day

Ta guy (s) and Gal(s)

I fixed your bumper cracks in photoshop Craig I got rid of a lot of stone chips, flies and general muck off everyones



Wonder why the photobucket pics are so small? The originals are waaaaay big

Wow - does that mean I don't have to get it repaired now?

If only life were so simple.

What time would i need to be there tomorrow to get on the stand?

Ideally before 9am, as that's when it opens to the public.

Although, if you are going to turn up, I'm sure Craig won't mind you being a bit late and there were a few other cars on other stand that were turning up late.

Hmm, i fancy coming but i cant see myself getting there before 12. Might just come visit the stand later in the day!

I'll pm you Craigs number, as he may still be able to get you on the stand and then it won't cost you anything either You could give him a ring in the morning sometime.

Sorry Craig for replying on your behalf, but I'm assuming that you've now gone to get some sleep due to the early start this morning and another one later.

Cheers Theresa, i have his number. Thanks for replying. Will give him a ring in morning when i drag myself out of bed.

Pm already sent

You're too quick

Hope you can make it

So our lass keeps telling me!!

Thanks again T and yes, you're quite right.

@ Matt - give me a call either way mate - if you get there, give me a call and I'll walk down with a Pass for you. Don't go through the Entrance Gates before I get there or they will charge you.

I've also had a text from Taffy saying that Cowboy's going to put an appearance in today so same thing to you too Karl - call me before you get to the Entrance Gates and I'll sort a Pass for you.

Finally back home now having had a really good day yesterday. Thanks for the excellent organisation Craig, it all went very smoothly. Was nice to meet some of you - my apologies to those of you I didn't get to talk to, clearly socialising isn't my forte

The coupes looked great though and were 11 of the 14 (that I could see) genuine italian cars in the whole show. Was a long way to travel from down south, but I had a really good day. Coupe did 38mpg on the 460 mile round trip too

Thanks again for a good day,

James

p.s. I'll upload my photos soon

I've got some photos from yesterday as well, turned out better than I thought they would:
