Well today was the CVR4 mini meet in Devon. Attendees were as follows:
Andy (The Vee)
Pete (spirit979) + Shaz/Conor
Nick (Nick F1) + Pauline/Kids
Heath (HJM) + Jane
It all kicked off with coffee and chocolate muffins at my house at 10am. From there we moved off into Plymouth city centre with a tour of Plymouth Hoe and then onto Ivor Dewdneys for a pasty stop (thanks Andy for buying ;) ) and Heath/Jane stocked up with some for home :laugh: .
From there we made our way across Dartmoor, passing the prison, and onto Dartmeet where the plan was to stop and have a coffee break....but it was so busy we couldn't park up so we moved on a bit further and found another car park with an ice cream van, so had to force down a round of ice lollies etc :D
Then the convoy moved off to Exeter services for the monthly local Jap meet, some wicked cars turned up as normal and was great to have a row of Galants/Legnums in attendance ;) .
The finale was a short trip into Newton Abbot and a meal at the Penn Inn - food was excellent and we had a great chin wag and laugh. More pics taken and from then we said our goodbyes (some 9 hrs after the start) and everyone got home safely. As Andy (The Vee) was staying in Plymouth tonight I took the opportunity to do my VR4 sales pitch and took him for a spin in the VR4 - I think he was suitably impressed !
All in all a great day was had by all, the weather was fantastic, food varied and excellent and the company awesome. Thanks for all who attended and here's to the next one ;)
