You missed it! Brilliant sunshine and blue skies.

But here is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DN9d7uB3IfA It was filmed in HD so click the HD button at the bottom of the video window.

A year and a half ago despite the rain, sixty or so Corvettes, Mustangs, Ultima's and TVR's met at the Runnymede Pleasure Grounds less than a mile from the Runnymede roundabout at Junction 13 of the M25.

Since the days are getting brighter and less cold I thought it would make a great place to meet up impromptu each FIRST Sunday just for an hour or so maybe? Bit like a pub meet - without the beer!

See: http://www.surreycc.gov.uk/sccwebsite/sccwspages.n...

There's a cafe on site that dishes up good breakfasts from around 9:00am and masses of parking. It's located right next to the river and an ideal location to just stand around and talk cars. There is a small charge for parking but at least the spaces are wide and safe to position your car.

Say 9-9:30, starting this Sunday 26th of April and see how it goes?

Here's a few images of the first meet:

Looks like you had 100% more sunshine than last time we went over to Runnymede!

Fingers crossed for the Sussex picnic....
