I know that I've said it a few times over the weekend but I really do mean it when I say 'Thanks' on behalf of the Committee and Mods.
Times are tough, money is tight and funds aren't always readily available (believe me, I know too!!) so to see lots of folk driving great distances from Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall in awful traffic - only to get rained on, on Saturday night is a real lift for those who organise the weekend.
Last year was a challenger but this year has easily put that to bed. Attendance records have been broken. Profit for the club is healthy and we are back on an even keel.
I hope everyone enjoyed themselves.
If you didn't Id like to know what we could have done better please.
Ta, Dan.

First time for me today and really enjoyed myself. Met some great folk, saw some amazing MK1's and spent a few quid too.
I'll be back next year hopefully in my car
P.S Massive thanks to Dave Watson for bringing me up today. Wouldn't have made it without him

This is the first AGM for a few years when I have been able to enjoy instead of trying to make sure others had a good time.
The organisation of this AGM has been without doubt the best I have see all seemed to run smooth and if it didn't I didn't see it and that's how it should be.
The drive out was well planned and was about the right distance going through some great countryside as well and as far as I could tell very few managed to get lost and if they did they soon got back on the right track.
So well done to everyone who helped put this show together and if you didn't manage to make it this year well you missed out BIG time…

Just to echo what A5OPY has said it was a well planned AGM. The organisation and stuff which goes on behing the scenes we will never know about. Hats off to Dano and all his committee for a fantastic show.
Would have loved to catch the horses on friday.
I missed a chat with smudger too.
Ill probably will be last home.
Get the ferry at 12 today and should be parked up about 4:30/5 in my shed. I must keep a check on the mileage…
This was my 5th agm in a row and I loved it.
see you all again next year.

Massive thanks to Dano and everyone involved in organizing and running this years AGM. Every year just gets better. Good to meet up with faces old and new, and pleased to meet up with the Scottish guys and Shughy - hope you all got home safe. The icing on the cake was picking up an award for HGT. Thanks again guys.

I was behind you on the way back from the drive out! Meant to come and find your car to have a proper look round but didn't get around to it. You got a build page? Looked and sounded awesome.

This was my first full weekend AGM as I have always come up on the Sunday previously.. Had a great time and was great to see so many people and put a few names to cars. One suggestion is maybe a dedicated mk1 car park for the sunday? …. other than that a giant see through tarpaulin to cover the site for when it rains.

Well done to all involved the AGM just gets better and better!!!!

There was a dedicated car park, it was at the top of the field next to the traders. It just doesn't work unless you have ome there parking cars all day….. and who wants to do that??!!

Think that's where I ended up parking anyway!
Maybe a sitemap on the back of the driveout directions?
…any thoughts on the tarpaulin?

Awesome weekend
The drive out instructions were a lot easier to follow this year as I'm usually driving on my own its hard to read instructions and drive at the same time but I managed to keep track of where we were in case I got stuck somewhere.
Could we maybe add little roundabout symbols n left right arrows on next year so less reading if ur driving
