Just home from our club rally.....and what a great weekend. I'd like to thank, once more, all the fun people who came along and made the weekend a happy experience - such events have no reason to be anything less....;)

We had 12 lovely vehicles along for the weekend, with a great selection of Series vehicles...some snaps here from our Saturday lunch stop at the restored church.....

We had a very fine roast dinner that evening - a big thank you to the one and only Mrs. H for her help here. Arthur was his usual vibrant self and gave another great speech....and the thunderstorm just added to the atmosphere really, so to speak....

But we awoke to a sunny morning....I hope everyone had a great time! :)

And special thanks to a great club man, Killer, for making up the presentation trophies....I was very pleased with mine, although I'm hoping to never win this one ever again!!!!! :D

Again, trips like this are made by the folks that come along - it was a pleasure to organise the weekend, the reward being all the smiling happy faces. :)

Hopeless when your 6 year old granddaughter refuses to drive - I heard her fob the job back to you...:no2:

Personal thanks to our El-Presidentee for organising a top event. Nan & I had a wonderful weekend. The casual little jaunt around the countryside with tea and scones along the way was great way to spend a Saturday.

The camping alongside the pub as well as our evening meal there was superb. IIRC, we had a total of 13 vehicles (which did include 3 boingy ones :D) and got to meet a few new (to me anyway) Landy people. We even had a Landy visitor (130 T/C) drop in to our camp.

Thanks also to Michael for bringing his famous Grandfather (AG :)) along for the show.

Great! :D :wasntme:
