Stuart Davis AO - Devon Cornwall & Somerset Posted September 29, 2023 Author Share Posted September 29, 2023 See you there chaps. 7.45am at Illminster Services 8.30am at Tesco Cullompton Gave the car a little wash at lunchtime so it looks nice and shiny tomorrow 😊. I’ll bring the half hood but hopefully no need for it looking at the forecast 🤞 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll make sure I don't smell, but the car will probably fairly filthy. When I cleaned it before the Lynton&Lynmouth Car Festival it ended up sprayed in muck everywhere before I arrived - Devon roads ... See you tomorrow at Tesco! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaykay42 Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Great to meet you all lovely people! Thank you for organising, Stuart! Hope everyone got home safe & sound. I even stayed dry, just a bit of sea mist over Exmoor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Davis AO - Devon Cornwall & Somerset Posted September 30, 2023 Author Share Posted September 30, 2023 Excellent morning, thanks all for coming along. It was really good to meet you all, familiar faces plus plenty of new ones. Some pics and videos of today. I’ll see if there is anything on my Insta360 although it wasn’t behaving very well so I think it missed quite a lot ☹️. For those who weren’t there, I met Matt, Adge and Rory (who came down from Bristol) at Illminster Services, then Matt led us on a very nice route over the Blackdown Hills to meet the others at Tesco Cullompton, before heading into Re:Fuel. We had ten Westies and a Mini which was an excellent turnout. After a very nice breakfast and a natter, Adge then headed a group of six of us on a little tour north ending at Ralegh’s Cross Inn for a warming cuppa. We then all headed home our different ways; I went back to Crewkerne via Taunton, ending at just over 100 miles for the day. Thanks all 👍 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks all 👍 Whose is the orange Westie at the Shell Station with the full cage? I like the roof or whatever the correct term is. Does it actually keep you dry in rain without a windscreen? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a home made hood, works quite well in the rain but only when I have my temporary windscreen fitted 👍🏼 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
