Kent meet 30 March - Update and some photos

A few of us met at Badgers Mount and it didn't rain.
It was my first Scorpio meeting and others who attented were:
Pegasus, Gost, Simmo, V4-Max, DaveN and Pagey (I think)..oh and me, DaveM
V4-Max started things off by getting his priorities right...
and soon we had a line of Scorps
Notice how we all backed into the parking spaces for effect, then DaveN arrived.....
Well a fair bit of chat and a chance to meet the faces behind the names...
....and a certain amount of head scratching...
Gost had arrived with a leaking radiator, well his car had I mean....
V4-Max found somewhere to put his beer...
while Pegasus and DaveN tried to get the OBD working...
There was no way we could stop Simmo from tinkering...
but V4-Max had moved to the back to help...with his beer obviously...
Some of us got a few photos before we left..
and nice to meet everyone that attended.

Yep - good to see new faces Gost (Bruce) & DaveM - and DaveN in his new Scorp (nice  ).
CB1 v4-max (John ) finally got Simmo to work on his car though he need paying first (or is that thirst  ) 
Good set of pix Dave - and I've already ordered the DiamondBrite.

Sorry I couldn't make it this time, prior engagement - will hopefully be along to the next meet.
Just the one estate in the line-up by the look of things - Simmo's if I'm not mistaken, better make sure I DO come along to the next meet then !

Yeah, Simmo changing number plates just before the bank job.
Let me know if you get the OBD working on other cars, apart from your own. Would be nice to have a scan next time.

Fancy making an old man do ALL the work again, and having to lie down in the cold and wet.
I don't know what you would all do without HIM .

Just to avoid confusion V4-Max is the INFAMOUS Cheeky Boy 1 who needed help to sort out his number plate lights. As I have said before "Kids....who'd have 'em"!!!

 yep good meet, warm and sunny simmos's joints have eased up, so was able to get him back to his rightful place under the cars.the old chap left his dirty paw marks on my bumper though, just like a real mechanic. just have to get his car wash back open and it will be business as usual.

Excellent pictures guys!
Great to see everyone again - Taliban, your absence was noted - I tried my best to abuse Simmo but I was in a good mood as it was my first day out in my newer 2.3!

Hope to be there next time.
