Hi Andrew....

Ouch!!!! :lol: :xd: :lol: :xd: Yep, I can't deny that... But I have been doing the Breakfast meets recently.... So I have got a few early starts under my belt now.... But in the old days leaving late, meant I could throw a bucket at the Cappa before I set off.... The breakfast meets it has to be done the day before!!!! As I've just done for tomorrow.... No more of that waterless wash in a bottle for me... It is what it is when it gets there!!!


Hey Jason,

Sorry your back is playing up at the mo.... Hope it eases off soon buddy... We'll get out for a run soon I hope!!! Cheers....


Hey Nick,

I'll be trying and I'll see if I can get any pics for you.... :xd: :xd: :xd:

Cheers all,

John...

Hi Jason,
Sorry to hear about your back.

Yes, it was hot hot hot !!
There were probably about 100 or so cars there. There were plenty of old favourites, but many of them I'd never seen before.

Great you had such a good day Andrew. I got a sneaky photo from John of your inspection of his Special...the one of you lying on the floor looking underneath :lol:

Fantastic photo of John's Special. Since he had that ceramic coating done if it was at all possible he's elevated it to another level. An outstanding Capri 👌

Shame i could not make this. Got too much going on.!!!

All the best mate

Yes, John told me that he'd taken the photo! :D :D :D
I'm pleased to announce that his car passed the inspection!

All joking aside, I just checking the correct routing of the starter cable. As you say, John's Capri is now on another level with the ceramic coating. The paintwork is absolutely flawless, it's like a mirror!
