yeah, evryone had better have taken a camera along!. Sounds like there would have been a good turnout even if only half the cars that showed interest turned up. Im gettin sick of missing the good cruises. Pics, pics, pics.

Hey guys, sorry had car troubles. ATTENTION I need to find out who gave me a screwdriver. I believe it was the blue Calais RB30ET. If anyone knows them, or you read this post can you please PM me. I need to post out your screwdriver. Thanks mate for your help but I had worse problems than a blown off pipe.
