Always a good gathering at Gretna, nice to catch up with a few folk I haven't seen since last year's meet,Paul, George, Graham K, Ian G, Jimbo,Jim J,Anna, and good to have a few newbies come along too, Andrew, Maurice,David and any others I didn't actually speak to. Thanks to Brian and John for keeping the meet going too.
This will be my last meet for this year, apart from NEC. Cant make Raby castle due to holiday, and family wedding weekend of WB classic show.

That’s the one. Bill who owns the coupe was at Gretna last year in an R8 cabriolet that was parked next to my white coupe

Safe and pleasant journey, arrived home at 6:15pm.

Jean and I really enjoyed the day at Gretna, nice to be able chat to so many I've not seen for some considerable time, pleasant surprise to meet up with Terry again .

Congratulations to Mark winning this years Tam Leek Trophy .

Many thanks to Brian and John for the organisation of the meet .

Shot over 4gb of video, it may take me some to preview it all and start putting it together in some order, in the meantime a few pictures of the day.

Thanks to all for attending another 'Great Gretna' meet. Thanks to John for his help in organising and Jan & Linda (the diner ladies) for the bacon rolls. Well done Mark on taking home the Tam Leek Memorial Trophy. Here's to next year
