That's the Ace staying in the bag then - and the Blaze, the Legends should be ok though :lol:

Great pics as ever Muz. What a lovely site - very frustrated at not being able to get there. Those tintop conversions look really good (knew Platty was going for one but didnt realise Plod was too). Lets have some reports on them fellas as I think they are a great option (keep top condition, good handling tintop and just add roof).

Safe journey back y'all 8)

Sorry we could only make it for a couple of hours on Saturday. It was a lovely site, the kids loved the pond, the ducks and geese, the Bongo dogs, and the adventure playground. Great to see everyone that we met and check out the more modern awnings [food for thought for next year maybe as they seem a lot more roomy than our Traveller 3 :-k . Nowt wrong with the Traveller 3 mind...]. Thanks for organising and swiping us in Mr & Mrs dreamwarrior.
Jon, Christine & boys.

just got back after tidying up after you messy lot.
:D :D
serious note, thanks to all those who made it to the meet, they wouldnt be what they are if it wern't for you all. the site suited all, the ghostwalk was enjoyed by everyone i spoke to, we managed a 6 bongo convoy through the centre of york and never split up once, which i thank all those for ferrying the 39 people to the walk.
cracking pictures as always muz, nice for you to make it through. we all had plenty of drinks to toast absent friends.
thanks go out to the few new members that turned up.hope you manage to get to stay on a bash soon.
special thanks go out to gillian, who as always turned up trumps with the childrens and adult party games.thanks to chris also for helping with the treasure hunts and the jacket spuds last night.
thanks wayne for the stella, karen for the icecube shower this morning, thanks mandy and tim for the use of the awning at 2am. thanks for the first york meet ive organised where we mainly had sunshine.i could keep going on but i wont, ill sit quietly in the background till i get my photos up on here.
Glad you all enjoyed it, and look out for the same next year.
cheers
mike, jo and emma
