South East Reading/Newbury: Mini meet 27th October - Venue confirmed - Anyone else interested, please add your name to the list :-)

Great mini-meet and fantastic venue today, thanks for organising it Robin...and for suggesting it Matt! Think I counted 11 Elgrands and a couple of members in other cars. The sun really made the G30's paint pop! Peter's (gotta love those 4 pipes) and Robin's sounded particularly good...although in respect of the venue I think they were holding back lol!
Great to meet some new members, although I will have trouble remembering your names...it's an age thing! MrG, nice to meet you, I'll remember you as the guy that doesn't need a ladder to clean his roof...unlike Peter and I!
Looking forward to the Alton meet on the 8th December.

You might have to rename yours @peter strokosz it doesn’t look or sound like a ’Daisy’ now :)

How lucky were we with the weather? Just the day before Jacquie and I were saying 'I can't see this weather changing for Sunday'

Nice to meet you and your wife today...hope you love your Elgrand when you get it on the road
 
Thinking about it...I want one I can call 'Thor'! God of Thunder...I love it...how can I copyright this name lol?
Or maybe 'Loki'...that works as well
 
What a good turnout today, nice location, nice weather and nice company. Have to say a big thanks to @Winchester for the little red gift, it made my day :D. And fine collection of vans, all different once again, with @peter strokosz winning the best new mod competition. Have to agree the repast was a tad pricey but that's Berkshire for you, at least I had two eggs in my roll. A couple of Autumnal pics below

Thanks breadman, our first meet and a fine and friendly bunch of enthusiasts. We learnt even more about these interesting and unique vehicles. Very much looking forward to picking ours up and then spending all our savings on fueling her up! Strange thing, we saw one of the rare beasts only a mile down the road after we left the gathering, had a red racing stripe down the rear and it wasn't at the meet. (was it?) Anyone know this one. Are there fools out there who own Elgrands and are not members of the OC?

And yep, thanks breadman, got the boat cleaned and covered up for winter despite the pressure washer blowing up, must be a sign that we need a new one to keep the new vehicle nice and shiny. ....... yet another accessory to purchase!
