Sorrry about that I should have give you my mobile number :( I got the lost in the moment.

I got everyone on the cam as we left the Car Park. I joint the back of the line... It all went a pete as one of the cars went the wrong way and we all went around the roundabout twice, before heading in the wrong direction. I was then seen by the chap with the Kreg Green Cooper and we followed some of the local cars to the start of the lights which was a car park.

A couple of the cars started to heat up, one lost all power from the Bat and his lights went out.

We turned back for Tesco's. When we were in the car park, I needed the loo and was hank marvin. The guy with the Kreg was talking to Sandy from Blackpool and they were going for food. I was with the chap that had the Kreg green mini, the plan was we were going to follow one of the local Blackpool mini's to get something to eat, We ended up in a fish and chip place, the cottage??? by this time we had lost the Kreg (I'm very bad with names).

We picked up signs for the motorway and drove past the Tesco's so we shot down for a look, but everyone had gone. So we headed-back on the motorway as we were a bit lost.... The car did a steady 55-60, no over heating and good oil pressure I was well pleased.

Sorry we missed you all we were a bit lost I didn't mean to mess you all about. I feel very bad that you all waited :o

Thanks for the great Run, We will join the club, and I will need to order a large window sticker :cool:
Will pop to the next meeting
