Sorry but 1st weekend of September it is.

Oh well, means I can't come then as I can't take the time off in September. Same with the lakes being in June means I can't get the time off.

Yes, as per usual was a cracking meet.

Thanks to all, too many do a bit, they cant all be named...

I love having a chat and meeting old and new faces

Good to get some jobs done, and nice to do a few unscheduled fixes too

Fixed her door checkstrap I thought was beyond repair, entwoods trackrods etc.

Newent has really turned into THE OOF event of the year, 4 on the trot and next years booked  :y

Excellent meet (as all the OOF meets always are  :) )

Thanks to Loo Knee for arranging the meet and all of us as we arrived.

Thanks to Mick Dundee and Mrs Dundee for the excellent Curry and Tony H for the excellent burgers.

Thanks to Dad1UK for the use of his BBQ and Bob Dent for the replacement gas bottle (followed by my Mrs with another one just in case!!!)

Thanks to everyone who tidied up (I feel guilty for not being vaguely alive / human this morning and poking my head round the hedge to find everyone else had cleared up  :-[ )

And thanks to everyone else, as I have no doubt I will forgot a few!

In true VXL style we managed to break something on the cars on the return - Front N/S bearing is noisy on the 3.2 and the DTi has a nice crack in the windscreen!!!!

Our sentiments exactly Jon .......
Sincere thanks to everyone who attended and helped - great atmosphere and companionship in the company of like-minded individuals - roll on Newent 2011!

PS: Gotta increase my allowance of Mr Dundee's curry next time, whilst kerbing the consumption of Entwood and Hotel 21's firewater!

Oh yes, the firewater, Micks and H21, both very different brews and both very moreish, and later noticed my legs starting to disobay me, most amusing, as I felt I was handling it well otherwise. I started to develop a bit of a giggle walk...... ;D

At least we'll have plenty of gas for next year!! ;)
(mind you there was plenty of gas around the following morning ;D)
Many thanks Andy for fitting the door lock solenoid and getting my central locking working again - top man. :y :y
A fantastic meet again, they just keep getting better.
Also as already said, many many thanks to those who cleared up in the morning, I was a little late in rising and I'm blaming Dundee for plying me with 65% falling over water! ::) I came over to assist with some clearing up and washing up but it had already been done. :-[ Good to see plenty of old faces again and a few new ones. :y
Had the apprentice OOF BBQ chef with me this year so well done to Greg for giving me some time off. :y

Thumbs up from us too.  Good meet.  Getting there, slowly, with everyone - another few meets and we should get to know you all better still.

Thanks Loo-Knee for persevering with the cooler sealing on mine.

Enjoyed the site but must take less 'stuff' - still tricky repacking it all.

Mostly away now, tent covers to dry - later ....

A big belated thanks to all who organised, fed, watered and transported gear for us this year. I'm aware we sponged a bit due to the limited provisions we could bring this year.   ::)

Was good to meet all the friends old and new. :y

I am sitting in a hotel near Aviemore - watching the rain. ::) Decided to give the driving a miss today.

The Westfield did the 330 miles from Newent to Motherwell on Sunday with no problems at all. Weather was kind to us too after the initial showers at Newent. Arrived about 7 pm just in time to prop up the bar. ::)

Monday saw 250 odd miles up to Aviemore, most of which was pretty hard blatting, culminating in an awesome stretch over the Cairngorms. Again, car didn't miss a beat.

Tomorrow we're taking a suitable scenic route up to Brora where we'll be staying for a couple of nights.

Cheers for now

Kevin
