Is anybody east of Cornwall meeting up on the way to the show?

We are meeting at the 'Route 38' diner on trurulefoot roundabout at about 9.15 for a coffee then on to show mate.

It was good to meet up with a few new people - yes I remembered the gazebo - brought the CRC pole but forgot the flag !!!

Thanks Barry for liaising on this - I think we even got a new member !! - Roy and Moira with their Sumo V6 - (must find the membership forms)

The road in and out was tight - and even though I left early - I got caught in the rain - that was no shower - p*ssed it down all the way back to Cullompton !!!!!

stopped and put the hood up back at cafe 38 - Barry tells me thay had to wait right to the end to get out -

Good show - must be great in the Sunshine !

Bet you're glad I left the gazebo !!

Forgot to mention it was good to meet up with Toddy and his family from Cumbria - Hope your holiday goes well - Cornish weather hopefully will improve.

Dave - remember your umbrella next time !! - Car looks good in black !!

Notice from the photo's that Andy L is the gazebo "Erection King" - formed a steering group and only took an hour !!!

Really admire the AK in Audi Grey !!!

We must have left soon after you, unfortunately the Police seemed to close the roads in front of us as we were going along, we also had an Austin Healey breakdown in front of us on a single track bit, caused a bit of a tail back that did!!
Didn't have the luxury of stopping to put up a hood as I don't have one, once home I had to drill the footwells to let the inch of water out, it was a nice drive out except for the return journey. Will go again if the weather is a bit better next year.
Also thanks to Roy and Moira for lending us an umbrella for the day.

Umbrella is now installed in boot (unlike carpet) After the cars first 60 miles I have a load of small teething troubles to get along with but count me in for next year, damn good turnout of cars considering the rain!
