Evening all !

Apologies if I've breachged frum protocol but I couldn't see an intro thread around here !

This is Don W by the way, John W's son...The lucky designated Driver for this weekends fun and frivolity. I just wanted to post up to ssay a HUGE thanks to you all for making me very welcome...I had a great time on the run itself ( Back lanes AND M'way !! lol )

Top museum at Coventry and adefinate revisit at some point although I have to say the one way system scared the beejeezus out of me...Park an dRide next time methinks. A huge amount of effort went into this and being a Field Event Officer for my Club ( http://www.ukgarrison.co.uk - shameless plug time ) then I really appreciate the time and effort that went into making this the weekend it turned out to be.

I have to say I met some smashinbg peeps over the weekend but as I'm kind of goldfish like with names then Thankjs to you all ( especially the Displaced Possee on saturdays run - You know who you are ! ) Damien ( see one name stuck out ) Good to meet you and your *ahem* exhaust...makes me chuckle now...oh, and the fine arc of mud you managed to spray several feet into the air.....

To my evening drinking chat friends to the breakfast buddies and to all who took the time to speak and say Howdy..I thank you.

Oh, one word of complaint though. I've now got the bug....Need to convince Jan that a TF is the FUTURE....Honest.

All the best,

Don ( The Stormtrooper ! )

Welcome to the forum Don. Great to see you over the weekend. I hope you can make a few more meets over the coming months and beyond. I understand there may be some family issues as to who is driving but I'm sure they can be resolved.

It was good to talk to you on Saturday night/Sunday morning. Hope to speak to you again soon.

Don't be a stranger.

Oh and go and get yourself a TF. There's never been a better time to buy.

Edit: I've just had a quick look at your web site. I don't recall seeing that many Stormtroopers in the movies. Are you lot planning world domination or something?

That's what happens when you get involved in the dark side!

Or Stormtrooper/Star Destroyer White...

Do you think they'd rename the colours to that?

great weekend, catching up with some and meeting new friends. just managed to get most of the mud from under my wheel arches from the road we were not supposed to have gone down, yes we got lost but at least we were not alone, there were a merry band of us. glad you enjoyed it Don, when we be seeing you in your own f/tf at an event.

pete and caroline.

Can't be many who did the run & didn't get lost slightly, I had to admit twice that Barbara's navigation was right & the others were wrong, humble pie is a dish best served cold!!!!!

Here is a selection of photos from Saturday/Sunday. As above, if anybody wants full size copies PM me.
