G40 Rally...Post script

[G-fortified]

Hi all.

Just a brief message to say a big thank-you to everybody we met and shared the afternoon with yesterday. It is a bit daunting turning up for an occasion when you don't know anybody, but after initial introductions the nerves were settled and the afternoon turned out to be a brilliant event. Fantastic weather and well planned (scenic and interesting !) route and a dozen G's (slightly) tear-arseing around Derbyshire. The guys helped me enormously with the car, which performed better on the way home than on the journey out, and we returned home more knowledgeable than when we started. I am extremely grateful for you spending your time, expertise and knowledge (even though a bit went over the head !) with  me. All in all a great afternoon that eveyone should try to attend if it happens again next year. Extremely nice people to be with.

Cheers gentlemen.

Robin it was a pleasure meeting you! We are at tatton park now. Any questions about your g40 give us a shout and don't forget the rolling road even if it's just turning up for a bit banter! Dan.

haha, I was happy just to catch you up, you had a fair old head start. Had pretty much ran out of road when I caught up.  It looked like you were having fun sliding round corners though.

Good to meet you too rae, we have met a couple of times briefly in the past.  Good to meet holly too.

Also good to properly meet supercharged-spaniel, aka Dan.  He pretty much kept us all entertained all evening in the boozer with his tales of debauchery.  

Plus good to meet lots of other people.  Including Tom who I didn't really realise was tom-tds-yorks until sunday!
