I haven`t posted anything in a long while as there hasn`t been a lot of activity in Bertie, just starting him occasionally and take him for a short run etc. The weather hasn`t helped too ! I was talking to a friend last night and he mentioned today`s meeting at the Griff pub not too far from where I live. I wasn`t doing much and considering it had been too long since he had had a proper run - why not? His battery was flat, that was why not ! I jump started him and he grudgingly fired up, got him good and warm - sort of, no heater - and off we went.



I was virtually the first to arrive, having never attended this meet before I didn`t realise it didn`t really get going til later on



The Griffin is a really nice country pub, and judging by the aroma after a short while, the food is good too! In a short time - relief on my part as it was a tad nippy, snow was still on the ground and I hadn`t made a flask - cars started to arrive. Not many as the inclement weather had taken its toll, but more than I hoped would turn up. In the summer months the meetings switch to the evenings, and unaccustomed as I am to visiting pubs - ahem - I personally can`t wait! Ok, I`ll bow out now and let the pictures say a bit. Nice to post on here again, take care and see you soon.. thanks for reading

Hi Bertie, nice selection of vehicles - looks like you had a good turnout regardless of the cold. Liked the MkV? Rapier,cheers,JD.

Nice mix of vehicles, good to see the cooler weather doesn't keep them in doors.

The last meeting they had there was on a warmer day and the entire field at the back of the carpark was full, around 200 cars I`m told!
