Title: Players, North Weald - 18th September.
Post by: Lewy on 16 August 2011, 22:42
One of the most chilled shows out there, and not just VAG cars in attendance.

I'm down.

I'll try and make this in the 5 but it depends on funds.

We went last year and it was ace except for the audio displays and djs wrecking everyone's eardrums.

Archie if you wanna go this year but can't afford it you're welcome to the passenger seat in the 5 in exchange for a teeny bit of petrol money. Lizzie's away for the weekend so I'm well up for going unless it's chucking it down.

I'll be there, last year was a great day out, with plenty of members in attendance (you know who you are :wink:) also not dependent on good weather as most of it is under cover, just hope this year the music volume is a little lower, as it pretty much managed to kill any conservation between the 2 Hangars!

Coming off the motorway onto a damp roundabout at 70ish mph. Turned in and felt a bit light, turned to full on drift, then too far and ended up on the grass on the inside of the roundabout. Scuffed a rim and strained my sphincter but other than that all good!
