    Sitting here, at work, suffering from sunburn!

    An absolutely *superb* weekend ~50 landrovers (which was almost the
    same number as all the rest of the entrants put together).

    The Saturday was either a social gathering, or an observational run.

    The Satuday evening was a meal out, followed by a quiz (our team, The
    Virginians Also [see below] won - yipee). The quiz was in 7 parts: 6
    catagories of questions (5 per catagory), plus 7 montages of vehicles,
    and you had to identify the vehicle.

    Sunday was the car show, which included a simple driving competition..

    The number of entrants from south of the border was .... disappointing.

    Cole Strange(?), with his wife Victoria, make it from Kettering - and a
    few parts-folks made it - but I only saw 2 CD's - mine and Peter E's.

    Cole is well know in some Land Rover circles (mainly the US area) as
    the man who welded a dumb-iron back on with welding-sticks, two sets of
    jump leads and two 12V Land Rover batteries!

    Team "The Virginians Also" was myself and my wife (Krissie), Cole &
    Victoria, plus Paul Atkinson and hios wife, from Atkinson Restorations.
