    20th May. Piston heads caring for kids.

    Now then. Who fancy's going to the Pistonheads do in Bristol on the 20th May. It is "caring for kids" sponsored by Audi for the Childrens Hospice South West.


    Below is an extract from the PH site. There are currently 515 cars booked in. You'll need to be a member(Free) of PH to put your name down, they only let pre-registered cars on site.

    The day is an informal, private and interesting meeting for PistonHeads members and other enthusiasts in the rural grounds of both the Downs School and Children's Hospice, near Bristol. We are again sponsored by Bath and Bristol Audi who will be bringing some tasty machines. Last year they put one of the first RS3s in the country on show.

    Hi Gary.

    Yep name down ages ago, number 147 I think.

    Hope parking is better than last year which was not brilliant.

    Caring with cars.

    Some photo's of todays "Caring with Cars" event at the Downs School.

    Shame didnt get to see Paul or Gary. Although I did managed to put a thumb print on Paul's Chrome/very shiny air filter because he had the bonnet up showing off his extremely clean engine.

    The thumb print along with a very annoying VW Polo that Paul encountered on the way to the event would of completed his day

    Shame we did not get to see you Mark. It was a very good event, well organized just a bloody shame that I did not win on raffle!! Best car of the car for me was the Big Yank car with the 7" record player on the centre console

    I'll post some photos in abit.

    Mark you B***tard !! I am now away for a couple of days and your thumb print will become permanently etched into my chrome ha ha

    I saw you and Tony just as you were leaving the event so couldn't catch you but, what an event !!!!

    As Gary says, we had some dipsh1t in a Polo on the ring road who would not speed up or move over despite 2 Cob's up his arse.

    Gary, you should post the link to your photo's on the Pistonheads forum as they are looking for as many good photos as possible.

    Anyone else reading this, you must come along next year.

    Cheers

    Paul
