Nah, been there, done that.

You must be 50 soon, it'll be cheaper then ??? You're on a charm offensive this morning aren't you!! Nope Its Monday morning Same Sarnie, different day Anyway, I look 23.

Nice moves Tilly I'm constantly amazed at how good the Z is on those roads and I know what you mean about the grin Great to meet you both and hope to see you at the next one

+1 But as mentioned agree certainly agree a poll of dates, maybe just for December would be useful

I take it you mean me for the soo nice bit?? Can't be the 2nd bit anyway.

Yeah great pics fella you didn't get stuck behind the red un did you? That's dangerous - I did on the last drive and I didn't stop going on about wanting a red one for about a month

Always buddy

For the ones I mentioned you'd be looking about 250-300 a night standard rate iirc. There are cheaper deals to be had (for these hotels) through websites, just had a quick check on laterooms and much cheaper there. What is increasingly common is serviced apartments - which may be cheaper. And I'm on about real quality apartments mate, not trash. Noticed some on laterooms in Beetham tower (the highest residential building in the country) that Mike mentioned - first 23 floors are Hilton hotel, next 26 floors are flats! Or there is The Edge (which is literally next door to the Lowry), lovely spot that mate, river right in front of the building, nice big bridge taking you over onto Deansgate (right in the centre). Fantastic neighbours (in building other side of the hotel), well one in particular anyway There's obviously plenty of other choices there too. If you do fancy an apartment let me know, I've got a very good contact for you.

No quite right mate, I wasn't suggesting otherwise - just saying that it wouldn't necessarily HAVE to be a monster day of driving for people all in 1 day. ASSUMING that a driving day was decided on. I'd be well more than happy for any type of joint meet, especially if we get some decent numbers for it

Thanks guys but i wasn't happy with them at all, im sure Andy had to delete a few blurred ones haha. I did hang out the car a few times though to get one or two of them, glad you like em anyway. Oh and if i didnt say it earlier.. Thanks Beavis for organising and being "dad" for the day, and thanks to Stuey for leading the flock around the stunning welsh roads. And last but not least Tim for having the Balls to make us all turn around and get out the traffic jam! Good thinking Batman! Only had to delete 1 actually mate (where you got your fat finger in the way!!!!!), you did a sterling job (all things considered ) I don't think it was anything to do with Tim's balls mate, more his bladder!!!!

I hope that wasn't a suggestion for a date Chris?????? I, for one, will be in bed with a raging hangover

Good point H5. For the members that have had a big trek for the Wales drives then usually they have stayed the night before at least to break it up. That could be an option obviously. You're right, it does depend on what we want it to be - poll????

Shout me up at the time mate

Yes indeedy, well done ruby!

Thanks mate, but I can't accept any credit - all down to sinbad

Whats up mate, scared?

Radisson (not the one at the airport unless you want a big trek into town), The Lowry hotel, Midland. They're all really decent and should appeal to you mate. If you're looking for something less pricey I can make plenty more suggestions.

I'm not going to start suggesting dates guys as I may well struggle in December, however if there is something going on I would defo do my absolute to make it.

We had a brief chat about this yesterday, really would be a great one to get a joint meet together. I'm totally flexible with location, I aint fussy. Ideally if we could get some driving in I would prefer that, especially off the back of yesterday!, but that said I can see the benefits of a static. The only downside, I think, with a static show is that if some people want to get off early it can sometimes be difficult.

Confirmed H5 - the amp is always on when the ignition is on so the handsfree can still work. That's defo the source of your hissing.

Promises, promises

Just happen to be 3 people with really good taste Nissan pulled off the biggest marketing scam known to man - "yeah, erm, buy this yellow car we only made 76 of em, snigger, snigger, snigger"

Nah, is right mate - no red eye or dodgy headiness! Where's your pics beavis? Some more of in here too: http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h216/ ... 0Oct%2007/

Essential maintenance my a**e!!! Who'd have thought that anyone in an UY would be shy, especially those who own an UY!!!!: Nice one to sinbad for the pics, top shots mate - cheers!!!

Hhhuuummmmffffff.......... Gutted when I see figures like this!!!
