It looked a great day, I only made it there at 3:00 ish, so sorry I didn't even say hello to anyone.
I enjoyed the short convoy with RIP and 2 others out and up the chippenham bypass, whereby I turned back on myself at the M4 roundabout to go back home and promptly ran out of fuel :(

I did take a few pics. I'll post them up in a day or so...

I get the impression that I'm being recognised for my purple seats :lol:

I noticed you turn back & wondered why.
I hope you got rescued quite quickly. Not a bad day to be stranded though...for a while anyway.
