I've changed my mind, I'll be driving up tonight, probably arriving around midnight. Had a bit of a week of it so I thought sod it, my plans tomorrow can be put to one side, I think it was a bit far fetched to cram so much into one weekend

Bringing the Activa. When it bothers to rise to attention! Takes about 2 minutes to rise, the lazy bugger...

Is there a convoy drive at some point?

Tomorrow, more than likely just after noonish.

Bring an umbrella for tomorrow, the forecast is now rather wet for most of the day

Unread post by **CitroJim** » 03 Sep 2011, 07:17

It's forecast wall-to-wall sunshine now....

It is with great pleasure I present the first pickled egg shot of the rally...

I'd not bet on that Jim, Sunday doesn't look like its going to be a SUN-day when you play the BBC weather MAP

I'd take an Umbrella especially for around 13:00 hr's !

REALLY !

I thought that most yolk (Sorry that should have been FOLK

) attended NOT because of some members eating jars full of pickled :-

BUT the Citroen's that folk's turned up in (Click for SLIDE-SHOW) or view stills below, enjoy :-

IIRC they could have been one or two Xantia's too

spotted !

Someone may have taken photo's of them (Most went off for some mystery tour, oh sorry was it a convoy) so they missed my photo shoot !

EDIT ! I've just found this photo I took, it looks like there were more than two :-

XMX, what camera/lens did you use to take those photo's, it takes vignetting to a new level.
