Default Left my chairs. (Numpty)

Hi All,

Due to old age and stupidity left my chairs. (Numpty) Jumped in the Tourer, drove off did not see them in the mirror behind. I have form for this and it is the second time I have done it.
Has some kind person secured them for me or handed them in to the venue.
One is a Directors chair, very solid to support my weight, no canvas seat just a plank of MDF and a couple of swimming floats for comfort. The other is a blue fold up to a cylinder type. Would appreciate any information on their whereabouts.

Thanks,

Peter.

Home at last from a fantastic weekend.. Thanks for the kind words and thanks also to Pete,Ken,Brian and Bob who held it all together on the day..
But the BIGGEST THANK YOU must go to those of you who travelled 100s of miles from around the UK to make it yet another fabulous national meet..

A special mention to Marinabrian who thought that the ZT V8 was the hardest vehicle to T4 until he came across my ZT-T at Hollycombe yesterday. It was probably the toughest fight since the rumble in the jungle but Brian finally beat the Sprout into submission.
Again thanks all and hope to see you at Anglesey for the next one in August..
Cheers Ian

A very big thank you to everyone who came along. It was a real pleasure to see you all in the sunny surroundings of Hollycombe.

It was very humbling to give the first Windrush award to Lillian. Derek's car has gone to a caring new owner in Julien, making it a deserved winner, and I do hope we get to see Lillian again soon.

Hi Peter,

I have your two chairs safely stored in my garage. I will see about bringing them with me to the next regional meet for you.

Kind regards,


Pete

Nice to meet you Alex, loved the result of the hard work and effort that has gone into your car.

Thanks again for the access lid-side moulding, it looks great in there!

Well got home at 2.0pm 4and a bit driving the M25 was running great had a good run all the way back. What a great weekend was had lovely cars and great to see old faces again.
When i got the prize it was a shock didnt know anything about it so thank you all. It was nice to meet up with Pete and KEN AND Lillian and it was a bit sad not seeing our great friend Derek (windrush) but he would have been looking down on us.
Hope you all had a safe drive home. 500 miles + ROUND TRIP for me

Default Chairs safe!!

Hi Pete,

Thanks for rescuing the chairs. Next meet is The Ugly Duckling 20th May. Happy to come and collect them from you before or exchange them for a pint at the New Inn. Your call. John Howard I suspect will be organising a meet at The Ely, Mid June. I am happy to wait until then if that suits you better..

Thanks again, Peter.
