From the attendee xls-file we had been 100 cars plus app. 20 of the official staff. Not known how many more MG's joined while the two great days. I assume another 20 to 40 from Sweden who just visited .... So app. 150 to 160 cars in total. ;D The next event in south sweden will be 2009 cause now it's up to the Stockholm and North Center to do the next annual events. Enough time to save cash and plan hols

Quite right Dieter, however there is a possibility that the North event may be cancelled as it is so far to travel, even for the Swedish owners, and there are so few cars there (single figures I believe) Therefore the south centre event, which will be held in the beautiful city of Helsingborg, may come forward to 2008 Hakan, who lives there as you know, will keep me informed. Definitely put this in your diary as a not to be missed. We can take the shorter journey (the Puttgarden ferry) as we have done the bridges, but if anybody wants to go that way, or ferry across it can be arranged of course.

I have just taken a few pictures from Daphne's disc, Hajo takes some great pictures, hope you enjoy them, I may put up a gallery of those taking part, I think he has at least one picture of everybody. When one stops for fuel, we all stop (Fredericia Denmark) There's a lovely sight, taken between Fredericia and Oresund On the Great Belt bridge The Oresund bridge Ann, beautifully showing the special event scarves given to us. You may have heard about the driving skills test, parking the car with a bucket on your head, here it is

Ha ha nope! Not even when you understand the instructions! Adrian those photos are great, and deserve high resolution, but the messages are falling off the screen! Any chance of reducing them a tad? Cheers!

Quite right David, I copied them off Daphne's disc but didn't reduce them in size, that's what you get for not knowing. I knock mine down to 600x450 so they fit.
Great shots of the rest of the "Vikings" too, I think it will be easier to copy the disc for everybody rather than pull out individuals, there are about 315 there.
I'll ask Daphne if she minds, I've got to do mine and send it to Tim anyway.
I've taken them down as far as they will go on Photobucket, I'll take them out tomorrow and reduce them off the disc and put them back normal size.
