Decent turn out,i wasn't that impressed with the top gun style fly by's from a few of our own,it will give the site and meeting a bad name.

A few outside patio heaters woulda been nice, also next time im not washing my car, washed it yesterday and was mess by the time i got up, shoulda waxed it I guess but im not losing my fingers in this cold. Overall good meet.

There was supposed to be an Opel meet there today but we robbed there spot.

Would agree with Shane(did I just say that) the fly by's were out of order and will bring a bad name to the site.

We will end up like the jap lads meeting in an industrial est because no pub owner will want us near their carpark

Agree fully.Also heard from a member of the traffic corp today that there were 2 dangerous driving reports involving a convoy of cars on a unnamed motorway today,not sure it is VAG related but he suspects it is and they are investigating accordingly.

Lads this sort of nonsense has to stop,when you are driving to or from a show you are representing the Irish VW scene in the eyes of the general public and have a heavy responsibility to act accordingly.NOthing against pushing it on a bit when conditions allow but there is a world of difference between this and acting the complete tosser,made worse when there are a group of cars acting like tossers.
