Looks like you had a good little gathering there. But that pair in the middle of the first photo... I'm sure you often park next to me in places like the supermarket Between the lines... park between the lines!

Hi Glad you enjoyed the day Wumpster, its good to see people from here as well! Paul you are right I think we need some parking lessons! on the other hand it helps to avoid car parking dents, Just look at how close the granada open door was to Wumpsters car R Lee

Paul regards the parking what u have to take into account is the scorp on the left of the pic as you look at it, is driven by a person involved with Buses, the scorp to the right is a Taxi, now when do u ever see those parked correctly. Ren

I believe you got there before me wumpster and obviously it was impossible to park between the lines as advised by Paul so in true big bus fashion I used all the available space!!! I will try improve my parking at the next meet R Lee

Why has that Granada got a black and silver number plate? It's illegal to have one on any car registered after 1974!! Baz

Hi Baz The orginal plates are underneath, Marcus the owner only as them on at shows and meets, held on by velcro. I believe Wumpster lives near you and he was telling me that you dont hang around! and that your car looks even better in the metal. R lee

Oooh thats libel. I always stick to the speed limits!! Re the number plate...that would explain it but I did see a Focus yesterday with black and silver plates on a private number. Maybe he thought it was OK!! I may get down to one of these meets one day, you never know Baz

Sounds like fun. Trouble is it takes 3 hours to get to junction 19 from junction 21a. Everyone knows that!!
