A really good evening- thanks for doing photos Neil. It was good to see everybody. Sorry I had to leave earlyish, but longest drive home.

CJD was also dispersed to another 3 cars.

See you all at the next one.

That's cos she had Mrs Eds to talk to and didn't have to listen to Elan cr*p all night :lol:

So with Mrs Jostler and Priscilla ( Mrs Elvis :) ) likely to be at the next meet as well then advanced warning to the catering staff is essential if not a bigger venue :roll:

Question for you Gary - what is the most of Elans ever at these meets? I've trawled the threads and can find 6 on a couple of occasions but think it may have been more when the 2 Andy's were at Islip last year.

Actually it was probably to do with how many glasses of wine she quofed !

How about 15th May then (and it can then be Mrs Gary's birthday treat).

Please try and give me an idea of numbers so we can warn the pub.

I'm not sure about numbers we certainly haven't had that many for a year or so
