hm... I'd like to make that. I have a 21st party the night before so I'll try and behave... even though the theme is Ann Summers. I'll just have to clean my car finally (rain or shine) as the seagulls have shown their disapproval of my car. Hopefully see you there.
If you happen to notice...I tried fixing the intercooler blockage but I had an issue with an overseeing peer and I wasn't getting in to ANOTHER argument about it  >:(.

SUNDAY 22nd IS SET TO BE A GLORIOUS SUNNY DAY ! ! !

What better day to hold our first ForFour meet, eh ?

If you can't get there for around 9 - 9.30am....get there for 10am
(McD's breakfast menu finishes at 10:30....for those interested or in need of sustenance)
I'm not reckoning on peops staying longer than maybe 2hrs.....but hey, be nice
to meet everyone and maybe grab any shopping you forgot from Sainsbury's,
and/or cheapo fuel for your wee beasties....

Wow the day crept up suddenly!

Hopefully the glorious sun that's out there right now will hide himself away for long enough for me to wash and polish my motor without streakiness.

Otherwise... well it'll have to stay filthy.

That's all I'm after - meeting some of you for real.

I wanna see the fly eyes vinyl too, cos I'm still planning to put some on my roof.

I'll have a wheel with me.

Good times - nice to meet everyone there!  Reinforced the idea that Smarties are good folks :)

Six cars, eight people.  Not too shabby for a first attempt me thinks.  A few nice cars with some nice styling ideas going on.  Needless to say, Musmart's looked the best.  Lovely shade of white.

A few good things were learned too - we learned about Plasticoat, jailbreaking iPhones, Appradios and how much Musmart likes Happy Meals "to get the toy for his kid".

Well folks....today was the day of the meet near Reading....

A band of 6 cars with 8 brave fellows struggled thru the early morning sleep
barrier to make it in time for a McD's breakfast and coffee/orange juice.
And later, after much chatting and exchanging of names/details/and other
friendly banter we stood our ground and soaked up the blazing summer sunshine.
All admitted to it being a good meet at an ideal venue and on a perfect day.
The venue was busy, no doubt about that, but all the crs got admiring looks from
those who drove/walked by....  which was appreciated.

So good was it that another meet is tentatively planned for September....

Here are a couple of pictures that I 'popped' off using my mobile...Galaxy S3...

Funkydoodycool wondering why everyone is hiding behind the back of JJ's car...! !


And here's everyone looking into Musmart's engine bay wondering where the
engine is hiding under all the pipework....LOL.....


Musmart also took some photo's, and he'll upload those sometime soon....

Seriously though...it was a GREAT shame that more could not have made it.
It really was a good meet as anyone who attended and posts up after this will agree.

Hello everyone.
Initially I was not sure how the meet would be or how long it would go on for. But I had a great time chatting to everyone and putting a face to the name! I got there abit late after a late night yday but it was well worth it, and we all stayed there chatting for ages with the time passing really fast.

Thanks to the organisers and those that came for all their advice. To those that didnt/couldn't, try and make the next one defo
