I only visited for the Saturday cruise but stunning riverside location for the large assortment of buggys from N,E,W and S. About 23 buggys went on the cruise to the Forest of Dean taking in the sweeping views from Symonds Yat before heading to Ross for supplies at Morrisons.

Great humour and camaraderie - so a brilliant way to maximise enjoyment of your buggy. I am sure stories, insights and images will be posted soon enough.

Was thinking of doing a runner but with Hugh CCTV about glad I didn't, great time thanks to Hazel for the organisation and the rest of you for the good company, we do enjoy this a lot

Fantastic weekend Hazel, many thanks to you and Miller for organising!! Brill location and cruise! 

Although unable to camp the weekend the chance to go on a great cruise was fantastic, big thanks to all for the great company and conversation, as usual learnt loads not just about buggies  ,

Weather was ideal not too much damp, looking forward to the next,

big thanks to Hazel and Miller and any others for the good N.E.W.S 

Yay.....guess who got a speeding fine come through the post on their way home from news.....

Bad luck. They didn't offer you a speed awareness course ?

Where did they get you Shaggy and what was your score?

Alcester road studley 42 in a 30

I did say you would regret giving me the keys to your car at some point   

Think I'll set fire to the bloody thing

Of all the people    oww Shaggy    I cannae believe it!!


That road is a bitch, changing speed limit every 5 minutes. I think I know the camera that got you, the speed sign before that one is so hidden amongst so many other signs, it's sneaky!


We should have convoyed home as I went that way...

Bad luck there with Mrs snoopy's favourite camera now hidden by a leylandi hedge the two before by Alcester and Coughton are 40mph zones. Go for the speed awareness course if offered.

And if you do, keep your mouth shut in case you get kicked off it - I nearly did and the consequences can be far worse.

They spout so much crap throughout the day, its difficult not to want to correct them or point out that we use disc brakes these days and that their statistics have not been updated from the 80`s, even though vehicle technology has come on leaps and bounds.

It didn`t go well for me from the start - They went round the room as everyone held their head in shame admitting that they had done wrong, doing blah blah speed where they shouldn`t. When it can to me, I pointed out that I still beleived I was in a 40mph zone, and bearing in mind it was 4 o'clock in the morning on an empty road, and I was clocked at 42 mph, I was actually pretty chuffed with myself to have been caught driving at what I thought (and still do) was the speed limit. Didn`t go down well at all.



In hindsight, I wish I had paid the fine and taken the points.
