Just a quick one to thank Anne and Richard for ALL the hard work in organising it and collecting the money again.
Also to the members of the forum some new and some not so new who turned out and made it a great day.
Really HOT and HUMIND weather ( great storm on the way back) but so nice to meet old friends make some new ones and have a really good day.
(Baz I forgot to get one of those tape storage things, went to get the money and got diverted sorry , perhaps NEXT time.)
Who is going to do the write up any takers?
Thanks to one and all

Yep another great day at Harewood with a number of suspicously red looking Scorp owners without enough factor 30.
Great bunch of people and cars with some serious fettling going on, the piccies will be great to see.
So big thanks to Annie and Richard for sorting out the day and we were on plot 42 (Meaning of life and all that).
My car benefitted from an OBD, codes reset and strip down by Andrew, photos ultimately courtesy of Snoopy and some supporting diagnosis compliments of Martin Rowe. The run back home through the customary 5.15 rain storm (Yorkshires a pretty green county).
Also now benefit from a boot lid that will put a Roman catapult to shame compliments of Barry.
(Amazing two minute job with the right kit and a little bit of effort)...... and then there was Baz setting up a global conference/IM session from Harewood to Florida live.. Scary technology.
Great to see all the usual suspects 
This is starting to sound like an Oscar speech, but good to catch up again with, Baz, Kevin, KEEF, Oliver, Dart, Locky, Oddjob, the North East Mafia (You know who you are) and George and Kelley in a very interesting high roof concept estate and finally now a vote for the ladies without whoose help etc
Fouur hundred metre hurdles was impressive
Seriously great day now wheres that after sun for my crackling
Geoff
Dave I don't think this qualifies as a write up but its my bit of a great day out, I am sure others will drop in their own high spots

My thanks to Anne also, same time next year?
A Few pictures to be going on with
Baz
(Geoff bought the winning raffle ticket and won this lovely blue Scorpio 2.0 with reverse parking sensors....class) And no that isn't John Steed next to him with the brolley, it's Kevin R
Looks like there could be multiple claims on the blue Scorpio....a lot of number 42 raffle tickets!
"Hey Keef, you look well today"
(She'll never change you know Kev!!
(Scorpio no-mates!!)
Another Good Line up this year
George sneaked in with his Peugeot and thought we never noticed....we had other ideas
A lot of facelift cars this year too!
There were actually scorpios in 4 locations this year, and one was on its own on the Granada appreciation society...bit like a Peugeot on our stand!!
I will post more pics in a while

Evenin all, whew just got in.
What a day, a great day, but was it hot or what.
Burning up here as i write this.
Smashing to see the old faces, the new faces and the really old face(Snoop)
A fantastic time as usual, thanks anne and richard for the hard work, i will be in touch soon about a ne meet.
Everyone else, great to see you all again, managed to miss the storm, hows that for timing?/
Hope to see some of you at Stirling and Billing later in the year.
Must say the quality if some of the motors this year was fantastic, some tidy cars there.
Thanks to all for the entertainment, 1st class as usual.
and Danny, honest mate it was rubbish, you missed nothin, weather bad, company rubbish and the cars, oh man talk about scrappers

Nic,
the scrappers went early and left the quality to carry on flying the flag!!
Just as we were about to shut the door to drive off (Connor had to say goodbye to the ET cruiser and every other car that was passing!!) the rain started. I don't envy them old classics with no heaters!!
