made it home in 1 piece (atrocious rain on M8) , another good turnout with more new faces and the same old ones.
quite funny to see the the waitresses face when we asked for table for 20+, eventually we were all seated but getting fed took a while longer.
car park was bursting at the seams and it looked like some passed through but never stopped and came in to say hello.
after being fed and watered we ventured into the cold and wet car park, too cold and miserable to stand about so being the wimp I bailed out early but not before admiring Rorys new toy, stunning and in the perfect colour too. I'm sure there'll be pics up soon and of course Issys new baby very nice indeed and it'll look even better once Cambell gets you new wheels

I'm away now to stick my head in the fridge see you all next month

Hi, just home, had a blast. It was a pity about the weather but nonetheless some lovely cars as usual.

My fave today had to be the E39 Alpina. Great colour but then again........I am biased.

Rorys new beast is a stormer too, I also like the colour but did see a black ragtop in South Queensferry High Street with an 07 plate

Rory only bought it because it is the first car he could see over the roof of.

Good to meet and chat today with some new faces and others i've seen but haven't managed to chat to yet.

Only got 2 pics due to the miserable and freezing weather.

Very nice Rory, lovin' the new car. Bet you can't wait to have that baby run in soon.  Congrats!

Another good turnout for the monthly meet - I counted 25 cars - even though the weather was dreich.
F&B's didn't know what hit them


Would have liked to have gone somewhere for a group photo but I don't think we would have got a good one due again to the weather.

You've seen all the regular's cars, so below is some of the newbie's cars and new cars.

Good to see you again, sorry if I never popped over to say hello, was a wee bitty rushed but thought I would nip in nonetheless, sorry if I appeared rude.

Made it home safely on my part worn tyres that Michellin charged me £950 for!  Some craic when they're warm though!

Loving the way the CC is growing and long may it last, moan the Gaydon  Mr Morgan eh? Can't wait!!!

Good turnout...and nice to see new additions to the madhouse.

Some great machines as always....Rorys new ZM and Issys 323 coup nice ones

After leaving the meet...Graham and I hooked up with Shyam(330 cab),headed off into city to get a couple of stiff ones as the subzero temp caused many a malfunction.

Look forward to the next meet. Hopefully us west coasters will have better weather then.

Good to see it went well troops. Have to admit to having had a sneak preview of Rory's chariot What a machine and looking lovely with the extended Nappa leather in there. Even capping it at 5k revs it flies! Has a lovely CSL-esqu growl too from inside. Feels like 100bhp more than my car rather than a paltry 48

Would be good if one of you could get words and a pic or two for the mag to me? If I get them today, they might even sneak in to April's edition...

Well guys was a good meet once again, Food was gr8, seen some new faces and the usuall ones too!! As usuall a nice gathering of M3's, Z3M Coupe and Z4M coupe, Alpina B10 V8 and M5,2 Z3's, 2 New E90 saloons, Plenty of E46 And E36 and E38's and E30's. 

Shame about the rain and wind tho, made a bit of a dissapointment but a gr8 meet nonetheless!! But the best bit was the look of the F&B's staff when we all walked in!!

Oooh, The machine of a dream, such a clean machine With the pistons a pumpin', and the alloys all gleam, When I'm holding your wheel, All I hear is your gear, With my hand on your grease gun, Mmm it's like a disease son, I'm in love with my car, gotta feel for my automobile, Get a grip on my .......

Well I dragged my youngest along to SQ on sunday and we had a great day at our first meet. It was lovely to meet everyone and to be made welcome. The food was lovely and the company good. Didnt get a chance to look at all the cars because of the weather but was nice to see the ones we did see in the flesh and not just in photos. Jemma is hooked and has marked her diary for the next one so we are both looking forward to the next one and hopefully it will be a bit warmer.

Thanks Guys!

Good meet despite the rain . Did avoid it for a while watching TV in Schwalbes 328.

I parked beside Bluebros M3 , mistake , that car is so clean it made my meagre efforts at cleaning up the Zed feel like a waste of time ..... must try harder.

See you all next month for the trip  to BM Motors
