Well guys and girls, as is the norm these days for our little get togethers, Wellington was again at it's best, so a little drive around the Hutt valley and out to Days Bay for a coffee and a chat was the order of the day.

It was also a chance for our new local member, Luke to meet us all as he's not had the opportunity (or should that be the misfortune........../pan ) to be part of our get togethers before. Welcome and I hope we made you feel at home and it was a pleasure to meet you.

OK, enough of the back ground stuff, here are the pictures.............../rally

The initial meeting place was on the Petone foreshore but was a little exposed so we moved on the the Queensgate parking area.

VR4 bums, all in a row :scholar:

22498 22499
What's this?, has the tide turned, only ONE Legnum and FOUR Galants.........../pan Poor old John was feeling out numbered.

22502 22500

22501
This nice tidy Legnum was spotted and had a CVR4 club invitation placed under it's wiper.
Could be another future member, who knows. Tidy BBS mags too

22503 22504
My VR4 resplendent is the Wellington sun........ahhhh, and Jeremy's newly purchased Galant.

22505 22506
Johns Legnum and...................Dixons Galant which is unfortunately up for sale......../pan

22507

And last but not least, our new member, Lukes VR4 /rally

More pictures to follow in the next post.........................:pimp2:

Right off to Days Bay for coffee....................../rally

After some success taking pictures of a CVR4 convoy in my mirror previously I tried again.

22508 22509
Note to self.........clean the mirror before attempting this in the future.........../pan
Also need to watch out for other road users, especially ones BIGGER than I am like the bus/Grrr
And it would help if the others tried to keep up and together............/pan

22510 22511
Getting better, three of the four following cars in frame..........ah at last all of them except Jeremy is following too close now and can hardly be seen/Grrr

22512
Success at last................/rally Well sort of. Didn't end up that flash this time ..........oh well, at least I didn't crash taking the thing. :speechles

22513 22514
After the coffee, a quick park-up for a chat and some more pictures in the beautiful fine and windless afternoon sun. :pimp2:

22515 22516

22517 22518
And the scenery isn't bad either

22519
A final farewell and I hope everyone had fun. See you all next time......:iloveyou:

so where were all the slackers with their Legnums? No doubt using them for carrying things around and being all practical :)

Well Brad that's true of Whenz (Dickies) as he had just been practicing his midwifery :baby: in the back of his recently if you remember. /pan So his absence was to be expected.

As for the others well..............:speechles

.............+ petrol prices sky rocketing.

Skyrocketing doesn't cover it Whenz. NASA would be chuffed as hell if they could get their Space Shuttle to go up half as fast............../Grrr

Yea man, all good, didn't expect you, what with the new one and all. Everything going well at home I hope?

True, I didn't even think about that. One of my temp workers has a red Vr4 and has kindly let me use it whenever. So Auckland meet on the cards then? I'm hanging out to get out of maunkau.
