I agree about Stig and Neo's cars being excellent, but for me it was the Nightfire Tickford that got me going "I want that one"

I have already told the mrs what I want for Christmas now, but I dont think there will be one in my stocking though

I've not posted any single images of our cars as there seems to be a lot of those and mine look pretty similar but one picture is with the banner. I've done a small gallery on fotopic of the museum cars. I do have more but a lot of them are just variations on a theme.

The gallery is at http://pics-by-gordon.fotopic.net/

The same happened to me, most of my photo's were similar to ones already posted, so I only uploaded a few.

First time I had ever seen 20 800's in one place and that was really excellent, my only regret was missing chatting to so many people.

Right so whens the next meet then

Glad you guys had a good day.

Looks like an impressive turn out of 800's in all guises.

Still unable to drive due to surgery, but hope to be able to offer another "Barn Day" before the weather gets too cold and wet .

I will post up possible dates when I have a minute to sort it out.

The Barn will be a tad too far for some, but hopefully by the end of next year the Barn contents will be relocated to Wiltshire. which will give those more southern members a chance to rummage.

A large pat on the back for all those involved in arranging the Gaydon meet is justly deserved.

Well done all.

Mal.

Take it easy and finger crossed for a speedy recovery.

Injury?? totally missed that, what happened?

MG Mal · Post by **MG Mal** » Wed Sep 30, 2009 10:04 am

No injury, just corrective surgery for a dodgy elbow joint.

Just the same as changing a hatch hinge on a fastback.

Like a lot of rovers, my build quality is a little questionable.

Let's hope you never need your balljoints replacing!

MG Mal · Post by **MG Mal** » Wed Sep 30, 2009 10:39 am

I start work at Solstice Park Amesbury on the 2nd of November.

Still need to find a house though, even if it's just to rent.
