Leaving tomorrow for this GTG - looks like about 40+ cars booked to attend. Going to visit the great JDS and also Simon the UK parts guy. May also make a visit to rummage around one of the biggest Porsche dismantlers UK.

Anyone need S2 cams or Euro M28.11/12 cams 8>)

Spotted Dick with Birds Custard high on the priority list. First thing I will do when we leave Heathrow is find a layby with a food van and have an English cuppa and a bacon butty 8>).

Had the winning ticket for Spotted Dick at one of Roger's events a few years back. Frightened to open it. Have fun over there guys. T

Having acquired a manual GTS in the summer I was looking forward to this meet. Now I'm commuting to San Antonio TX and will miss it

For all those attending, have a great time, look forward to some photos soon.

Anyone in San Anotonio?

Spent a very pleasant lunch hour or two today with Roger, Jim Mayzurk and Eric (Roger's relative)

We went to a nice little "pub with food" in a picturesque village, by the River Cam, just out of the city.

Jim has plenty of Pics so will be posted once we get back.
Sitting at Heathrow waiting for a plane back.
Great people, great cars and crap weather.

Good to spend time with Mr. JDS himself. Met some good friends and customers. The orange beast was simply awesome and to meet the owner Phil just icing on the cake.

Delivered parts to Geoff and got to meet the nice fellow!!!
