Cheers Steve and Annalisa

Thank you to Gordon for hosting a great garage day meet - bacon rolls were really good. The weather could have behaved better as could have Richards car ! It was good to meet up with everyone and chat with a lot of old friends and meet some new ones. Roll on next year.

Yep, a fun day for all concerned, and once again a massive Thanks to Gordon and Ruth for letting us come over and tramp dead leaves through their house...even more impressive seeing as Gordon's not got a Stratos anymore!

Well, I say "fun day for all", but maybe not so much for Richard, whose poor Ypsilon made a bid for freedom by rolling backwards down Gordon's road - but it was stopped by the intervention of a large tree. I think it was one of those wrong 'uns he's been barking up. Fair bit of damage to the car, but fortunately the tree won't be making an insurance claim. Still, suppose it's one way of getting your car chipped.

Great to meet everyone, and hopefully we'll see most of y'all again in a fortnight at the NEC. Plus some of you who're reading this!

Gordon. Just to add my thanks to what has already been written. Another great garage day event, so well hosted.
So pleased that 3 Stratos made it out in such challenging weather.....you all deserve a medal!
Cheers all!

Gordon, just to add my thanks to you for organising yesterday, it was great to see new faces, and to see Richard following his recent surgery which has worked dramatically. My commiserations to him about his little Rally car which gained some rallying patina during it?s unauthorised unmanned escapade.

Getting to you was different, I never expected ever, to have to use my rear fog light, but the pea souper over the top between Leek and Buxton proved their necessity, and much to my surprise the fog was still there when I returned home in the afternoon.

Thank you Gordon for inviting us and to everyone for making us newbies so welcome. It was great to put faces to the names and attempt to absorb even more build tips.

Thanks Gordon & Ruth, always good to catch up with everyone & realise you are not completely insane with the Stratos bug!!!
Chin up Richard, just tell your rally mates it was an McRae moment with an over exuberant hand brake turn! Bit of T-cut will soon help.
(my Beta looked al lot worse when it lost a fight with the Wrynose pass!)
Cheers all.
