Thanks all for a great weekend. :th:

Drive out was fun - apologies for getting left behind in traffic at time. It's only a humble mk3 after all. :bleh: It was mainly traffic getting in the way and holding me back.

Thanks to Colin for the early morning warm up coffee, Ian for the spin in his V6 - far nippier than mine was, and of course Rhon & Lewis for arranging the weekend and feeding me!

Looking forward to all the pics and vids.

For the next one.... I think I'm gonna need a bigger (& warmer ;) ) tent. Or obtain the services of my parents small caravan. :D

Just wanted to say thanks for another Wales Run Rhon. Just got back to a sparrow dead in the living room so the cat's OK. Got lost on the way back and ended up in the Brecon Beacons, still, the driving was fun apart from the odd pillow that wouldn't get out of the way. :th:

Thanks all for an absolutely fantastic weekend :th:

To Rhon and Lewis a HUGE thanks for the excellent meals provided all weekend, to all the guys that turned up for the drive out I`ve never had so much fun although Smitty wasnt best pleased with the 200ft drop been on his side of the car :laughing

Just been sorting through all the pics so I`ll post them up soon so beware some of you theres some embarrassing ones :cheeky:

Again Thanks all for a great weekend, you made my first Wales run perfect :notworthy:

Thanks for a great weekend folks, glad you all enjoyed it! Sorry about the single track, bends, blind sumits and huge drops ... but I liked it haha!

Won't seem as bad next time, should be able to pick up the pace a bit .......

Well at least now (mass amount of scratches) sorted my coolant hose, and deciding wether to get a refurbed caliper and slider now.

With this now done- finally, you can put my name down in permament ink for the next run. :D

A mere hour or two's sleep is enough to overcome the excitement of even the F1 highlights :yawn: ...

....and boy do I look like my dad.. :D

Nevermind - the spin in the mk1 V6 soon woke me up. :yahoo:
