I guess I'm repeating whats already been said! Big thanks to all involved with organising the weekend - our hosts spoilt us from the word go, when we first met up in Belgium! They put us to shame! Gutted for Mark, Art and Christine Glad we went via tunnel - huge thanks to Emma and Holly for getting us from being lost in Belgie to heading home!! (something I couldn't manage! Oooops!) one highlight not already mentioned, was driving into the sunset over Calais - fantastic! Quick question though - is Exeter really closer to Belgium than Minehead? Personally a fabulous weekend - and pleased to hear that it will be slightly more relaxed longer do next year!! Thankyou all once again!

In spite of the fact we had to drive the Kempenrit in a boring Rover 200, it was a great day. Like Bruce said it's great to can see the face by a name or a car. Next year we will certainly join you all the day(s) before the Kempenrit, and than with a proper car.

Good job we followed you for a bit, before we took turns in leading!!! If you get a Daytona, get the two tailpipe version, not the four

We were 40 miles short in Dinas Powys ;D

Some great pictures so far, only which my back had allowed me to attend.
Sorry to read about Art and Christine. Having spent an enjoyable evening in their company at the Doghouse before MGF10, they are a great couple and I wish them a speedy recovery.

If you get a Daytona, get the two tailpipe version, not the four Your ''navigation system'' did a good job, i wouldn't have done it better myself.. ;D We have a two tailpipe version Daytona waiting to get fitted on our MGF, but sadly our MGF is still at the garage waiting to get a new front. If we have it fitted i'll let you know how it sounds. Our oval Daytona finishers vs the round Daytona finishers: dennis.core-lan.nl/mgf/albums/album111/IMG_0316.jpgOur oval Daytona finishers vs the round Phoenix finishers: dennis.core-lan.nl/mgf/albums/album111/IMG_0317.jpgBigger is better.. ;D

Quick question though - is Exeter really closer to Belgium than Minehead? Not sure about Exeter, but Newton Abbot is! (At least, that is according to the AA).
