OK, heres my opinion of the day............ Excellent turn out for a corsasport meet 
Pity it only lasted as long as it took Kerry to get back with the coke she bought me 
Think it was about 2pm when me and Andy got to Jarman Park. Was great to see all the corsas there. Got my install cranked up, met a couple of folk at my car and was gonna have a wonder round to introduce myself to as many folk as I could, and the feckin coppers turn up and turf us out
I was one of them that he asked to leave and pass the message on. I explained we were all just having a chat. Nothing untoward happening, but he said the owners of Leisure World didnt want us in their car park. Asked him if he could suggest anywhere else we could park up, he didnt suggest anywhere, suprise suprise. He did say tho that we should organise the meets somewhere where we had arranged permission off the land owner (good point), so off we went.
It all went pear shaped from there.
Loads of rounabouts and wrong turns later (cut up an Ambulance on one of the roundabouts too oops!) we ended up in Allied Carpets car park. Again doing feck all wrong.
THATS the point where the cops were complete ARSES.
They couldnt just have a quiet word and move us on again. Oh no. They had to get the pen and paper out and start taking reg plate numbers, causing a mad rush of cars wanting to vacate the scene pretty sharpish. This could have led to an accident of some kind, causing that panic!!!
So we moved on AGAIN and I got LOST
Big up to cheeky charlie for saving me  , (but even he got us lost on the A41  )
By the time we got to the services the big turnout had dwindled down to not many
So I drove, in total, 358 miles and hardly met anyone from the south end of corsasport, which was the whole idea of going
Spent too long on the road (and the roundabouts) and not long enough chatting and looking at other folks cars, so quite disappointed
Thanks again Cheeky charlie 
Snowy and your lass (didnt get her name) the bravo is mint. Some pics of the install when its done please
Andy Morley for the drive down
Kerry & Beardy for the coke and chinwag and directions.
Daimo and Donna for the chat
corsa- caz lovely corsa.Lovely paint. u2u for car club details and get it in at shows. She's worth it
to the lass who was with you when we were caling with the kitted arden GSi
to Pedro GET THAT INSTALL IN YOUR PICK UP !!!
Sorry if I've missed anyone ( I'm a bugger for names
:lol
Oh and to Vauxgirl, for sticking with it even after we'd changed venues three times. for the brew on the way back
 That I didnt get to see all the corsas that were there
And last but no means least, to Michael Fish for saying it was gonna rain today. Gauranteed sunshine all day!!!!
Bring on the next, organised and permission granted corsasport meet.
BIG UP to all who attended wherever you drove from.

I thought it was funny with us all having to move from one car park to another. At one point when we left jarman park my car was at the front and people started following me I had no idea where everyone went so i just went right back around the roundabout again and people were looking a little confused.
Anyway after several laps of McD's i found the correct route and was again followed by a few more cars and i made it to the Allied Carpets car park.
Sorry to all those who followed me round the roundabout back toward Jarman park
