Thank you Kirsty, Si & Bill!
You did a marvelous job of making this show happen for the club.
Pity the weather didn't read the script
Well done!

Oh, I spotted this....
It's a REAL Ferrari 355. I asked the owner if he was going to buy a body kit and convert it into a Mk2 MR2?

That must have been Sunday morning, as Dave and Mike were watching match of the day on Saturday night
Dave forgot to start his car which meant a flat battery on Sunday afternoon
The best story involves the loss of a front tooth and a tube of super glue, it really was a fun weekend
Re: Tatton Park MK1 Club
Was a great show despite the weather . . and not that I was counting, but we did equal the DC's turnout on Saturday then beat it on Sunday
Nice to see so many mk1s at the event and such a nice crowd of sociable peeps
We even had the event organiser congratulate us on a superb turn out and he requested that we have one of the larger more central plots within the showground next year! So a big well done to all of us for turning out despite the weather!
And a big well done has to go to Si Taylor for winning best mk1 mr2 of the show on Saturday with his Dad's car, lol!

Re: Tatton Park MK1 Club
Cheers all, great to meet so many of you.
Must admit I almost surpassed myself with teh alcoholism on saturday night, was good to meet Tommy at last, was relieved we got on well, jeez I was wrecked though, mind you I think the prize for that has to go to Sy, who was barely comprehensible at 3am in the morning.
still mucho fun, even if the weather didn't play ball. Still that's Tatton for you I guess, but I always enjoy it, although I will admit perhaps the highlight for me was the shower when i got home on sunday afternoon!
Roll on next year!

Thanks to everybody for making me feel so welcome on Sunday - it was good to meet everybody.
Hope I can get into a regular routine of club meets.
A couple of folk mentioned doing another Lakes Run (Bill even had the route from the last one in the glove box of his car!). If you want me to make some suggestions and put a day together please dont hesitate to let me know.
Happy Days!

As always I had a cracking time. The show itself is starting to lose it's appeal after seeing the same cars there twice each year. However the social side is still going strong and yes, I do recall losing the ability of speech from around 2.30 onwards. The funny thing was though when Mark and Lauren disappeared for bed at 3'ish I was left in the gazebo in complete darkness, unable to walk in a straight line... Who's idea was it to put the door of the gazebo right infront of a tree????
The next morning my head tingled a little but after 3 or 4 laps (walking) of the field I was feeling stronger again and had a beer cracked open for lunch...
Great to meet people as per usual but the highlight had to be Bill's super duper new wind shelter... (And Tommy's Dreamliner comments).
