That was a great day out,
We started from the Novello our TV HQ at 9:30
Where we met a couple of newbies, Roger & Sue and Michael. Well, I say newbies, they have been members for a while now but like many members around the country, they just hadn't managed to get down to a monthly meet before or one of our days out.
A spirited drive down through Berks and into Hampshire saw most of the 8 cars ignore the directions I printed out and try to follow the rest of us.
Within a few miles I seemed to have just two cars behind me and after a left turn at a roundabout, I was suddenly all alone.
After waiting for a few minutes some more appeared in the rear mirror and we carried on.
with just a mile to go most of the others popped out from a sideroad in front of us and we arrived on mass at the White Lion for their Classic Car morning.
This is a nice venue for a Sunday morning meet and isn't to far from the stomping grounds of South East and Southern regions
Next time it's Porsche specific, i'll organise a multi region meet
One of our new friends wanted to know if my 924 was standard as he couldn't keep up
We spent an hour looking at the other cars there, everything from 1940's hot Rods to Sierra Cosworths and being a Porsche theme today, there were around 20 Porsches, including our 8 plus 2 more we were meeting there.
A fab run back to the Cinnamon Tree, especially the last ten miles through the fast twisty bits, For those that went the direct route back, you missed all the fun
Finally the reason for the drive was indeed the curry and it didn't disappoint. I am now a stone heavier and not sure i can eat until wednesday.
See you next May for a repeat
