Fiesta in the Park - 13th May 2012

[evilrob]

Had a look through the photos I took on my iPhone; unfortunately most of them are crap - out of focus / people walking across the shot / finger over the lens etc.

The only three good ones I took are below:

A shot featuring Yvonne's shiny MSB, Little Paul's lovely Jewel Green and Ian's stunning FRP from another angle - mental reflections on this one:

The other star of the show - Steavie's miracle super-rare Thistle Purple Puma:

Cherie apparently letting out a cheeky tommy squeaker thinking no-one was watching - PPPARP!:

As always, a massive thank you to everyone who came, it's always the people that make these things worth the effort. k:

 

[Puma Babe]

as I'm never likely to win the best car I must try harder to achieve the wooden spoon next year :grin:

Thanks for a great day out guys an gals, I got in at 5:30 an also look like a lobster dispite wearing cream!
(Mrs had no sympathy for me! lol)
Was nice to chat with you all again, an my congratulations to Ian an his FRP. Also thanks for bringing the thistle puma!
I found it really hard voting as everyones car looked good!
I do think we had one of the best stands there today tho. (everyone else were being lazy compared to us!)
Have we got a thread for our picures yet?

 

[Cherie]

Dal's just started a thread for photos.. seeing as I only took 4, and they were all pretty boring!

I'm back, and very beetroot-esque!

Great to see all the usual suspects, and was good to chat to Rob, Aaron, and anyone else I've missed!

Right, I'm off to go and stick my head in a bucket of after sun...

 

[Roots893]

OUCHHHHHHH...... Glad we weren't the only 1s who looked like a mobile lighthouse on the way home :grin: .... And Rob thanks very much fella will get Dal to do a spec list for you ( although going by the conversation on the way home think the subs are going to be working this week so will probably be later on when she's finished)

 

[slayllian]

Thanks for a great day all, cant move from sunburn, at least we had the weather :lol:

Han & Rich.

Looks like you all had a great day, this was the first time I've missed FITP for a long time but I plan to be back next year!

I did intend to come down to the meet point on the bike to drop off the trophy but decided to do it Saturday.

Thanks to everyone involved for organising and attending our favourite event!

 

[Cherie]

As Gary said yesterday, I did say in the important information that you'd need suncream. However, just bringing it with you isn't enough, you need to put it on for it to work! :lol: I remembered to put some on, and although I'm a little pinker in places, I'm not actually burnt (for a change!)
