First post so I better make it good

Guys, just wanted to say many thanks for making a newbie most welcome

It also confirmed in my mind that I prefer your shape X5s than the newer ones. Search is on for a 4.6is

I'm not new to forums or meets

but it was extremely nice to meet like minded people. My main aim was to catch up with my old mucker AW8. Objective achieved

although I was expecting him to be in the most fetching of boiler suits

I bought my camera, but took no pictures

. Maybe next time

Penny, when I get a chance, I'll post some proper pics of my cars, mobile pics can be rubbish.

Hope you all have a good evening and be good. Except you Sanj .................................................. your already in so much trouble with your Mrs

Don't know about Abbey but that ITBarbie was a right minga! Wouldn't leave me alone - even told her I had a headache!

(As she knows only kidding - just in case!)

Also, as always thank you Jon for yet another great meet up, appreciate your generosity and hospitality!

Thank you mate.

Well managed to get home with car in one piece ( no need to top up & only lost 0.5 litre of coolant on way back)

Arrived Saturday with coolant leaking, (not prior detected), & nearside front indicator having just packed up en route.

X555's 1st sight of me was my angered arrival, getting out of my car & attacking it under a cloud of my self generated blue air

So good to meet all members that made it along

:

I think I managed to pace myself with beverages........even if my 2nd drink seemed to have a little more impact than I had expected

Great to put faces to names & genuinely enjoyed myself

Particularly good to catch up with names & voices well known but not face to face. Having spent lots of time speaking to Sanj on phone before meet it really good to meet face to face for 1st time

Then yet more surprise, with arrival of our mystery surprise guest AnilS.

, Nearly 8 years known but seen in person again for 1st time.........Thanks for making the effort to attend

Great catching up with everyone............& without listing names I mean everyone

Big Thanks to Jason & Co for everything done & helping me nurse my sick car

Last but by no means least I offer my sincere appreciation & big thanks to our likeable & superb host 5hep

Genuinely felt very welcome & enjoyed company of all.......For me to say that is a bit of a rarity , especially as I tounge in cheek regard myself as social dysfunctional through choice

My car let me down a little, (though in fairness it gently got me home), but others more than made up for this

Oh & btw........I apologise for my scary breakfast waitress routine......I only do this on a Sunday of course

Couple of shots from the day... Thanks go to rusty nail and Jeegnesh who set the camera up, I'm just learning.

No cars, you know what an X5 looks like by now but there was some karting and food later in the day.
