Well I've managed to sort out all of the pictures but there's still a good load of them!
I'll start off with pictures from the Friday.
The fish and chip van arrived and lot's of people enjoyed it too. They don't half do a cracking fish supper. Pictured are two Xantias; Jim's Activa and Chris570 and I's old V6.
The two pictured Xantias
The pickled eggs are brought out.
Robert and Colin getting stuck in.
Robert's trying to get everyone to have a pickled egg.
Getting fairly late into the evening.
The eggs were going down.
Jim's Activa and the wonderful sunset.
More to come of Saturday soon...

I only took a few pictures from Saturday, but here are some.
Out on the road.
And at the show-ground.
A nice pair.
A very nice CX GTi Turbo..that did shift a bit too..
Robert showing how not to do the three wheel trick.
A very late GSA Special.
CX Prestige
With the nicest dash.
The star of the show for me though was this gorgeous GS Pallas. The owners were kind enough to take me and 'Er indorrs out for a spin in it..

I do like your one Will, and the alloys look very good too, by far my favourite ones.

Thanks Dean.
Yep, Darren's a nice chap - I believe that Dave and his brother went in it for the convoy run and thoroughly enjoyed it! I know what it's like...Matthew said he'd take me for a spin in his 24v but I didn't go back - another time though...!
Jason was grinning like a cheshire cat all the way home in the GTi Turbo 2 - he's been bitten by the bug again!
Can't beat a GTi Turbo...

Congratulations indeed to Matthew for winning best Xm on show. I took it for a drive, and it was fabulous.
Super photos as usual Franklin.

Yes well done for the brilliant photos Franklin (especially those sunsets) and to you and your Dad and others for organising such a great event. I really appreciated all the interest in and kind remarks about my 24v and certainly did not expect to win the prize and was very chuffed. Apologies you did not get a spin Franklin and I had also promised Darren (Turbo 2), partly due to the poor weather on Sun pm - definitely next time! It was great to see old friends and make new acquaintances in the XM world. I too particularly admired Will's XM SD and Dean's Activa and there were some very nice CXs around. Lets make next year even bigger! With regards, Matthew T.
