I'm gonna put this in both this thread & the convoy thread who came from the East Midlands, thanks! I had a proper good day & spent money I shouldn't have spent :-

Cheers to Matt who led the way to the services, cheers to Robbie & his kid who turned up and followed us to the services (we won't mention anything about the 180 ;)) & apologies to Sjarvis & his mate who we left behind at the show, us 3 hurried off in search of cheap food, hope you made it home okay!

& one more, Sazal! I didn't realise who you were when I saw you, only when you got back into your Advantage I figured it out.

Don't leave me in charge of anything again, I woke up at 7.30 when I was supposed to be in Melton at 8 :) didn't bring a map with the route planned and if Matt didn't have his GPS we would've been in a mess, but yeah we made it and had a proper good day, so cheers again!

Yeah it was good today. I bought a new mountney steering wheel + boss, chrome oil filler cap, mini badge, air filter, bonnet stripes (plain white), BMC tax disc holder and a mini key fob! Enjoyed looking round the cars both inside and out, and was deffo worth the 2 hour (each way) trip!

Oh man.

Stretched and myself spluttered through the downpour having to pull over and assess the situation. Then pulled into services both rubber gloved the dizzy and then used a magazine and a plastic bag to stick behind the grill! We had a our CB's and had fun on the way up!

The show was wicked... didn't know there was going to be so much on sale and the jumble was so good!

Ended up buying:

Distributer cover (£1)
Locking wheel nuts
Silver Extinguisher (bargin at £15)
Some gaskets
Rubber gloves!

Gonna save up for next year!

Im going with afew from my club, travelodge'in it nearby on saturday.
How do i get a TMF sticker?



I'll see you in the travel lodge then!!!



And me :(

We didnt stay in the same Travelodge then, we were in Great Barr Walsall, top night out, very drunk.
Was still hung over when they called my number out for the 2nd prize in the raffle, 60 seconds to get to bmc stand from the balcony, it took me 10 seconds to find the ticket! EXCELLENT WEEKEND!
