Don't forget guys when all the petrol is gone we'll be growing oil seed rape in our gardens to drive our tractors.
Thanks guys for a great day.

Sorry Chas, I had a little present for your Satnav but when I was talking to you I didn't realise it was you, if you know what I mean.

Now photobuckets decided to behave itself some pictures of the day

I was late again, and bearing in mind I set off last week that was quite an achievement innit.. lol

Glad you had a nice run home Ronnie, shame you wouldn't sell me the chrome grill though, seems bribery has its limits innit.. lol

I did keep a very close eye on a rather nice front grill on one of the cars, but sadly the owner kept a close eye on me!

Once again some great photographs from Jimbo. thank you Jim.

Lots of luverly diesels about, and even some huge ones harvesting in the field next door. Steve's lad also noticed three very large raptors circling above the fields close by, doubtless waiting for the small mammals to be driven from cover by the tractors innit...

Petrol cars seem to be declining in numbers, though that's no surprise to anyone innit.. lmho..

The weather was really nice, lil dog behaved himself, though being closely guarded by Jean he didn't have much choice.

traffic was surprisingly heavy both ways though..

One more meet, rolling road on the 17th November and then it's hibernation time again..

Temperance fugit innit...

Excellent pictures Jim as usual, you always seem to make my cars look shinier than they really are.

Excellent as always Jim, looks forward to the next one but I'm not taking bets on the weather being so kind to us.

Thanks Jim, fbh edutainment at it's best, and thanks for the sly shot of my dab radio playing a cd and of my ruined message centre. It is being replaced a week on Saturday by the way.

Another fantastic meet, it was good to see members from all over attending, it must be worth it

It was also good to see some new faces and hope to see them again at future meets, thanks guys.
