We had a really great time today in spite of being somewhat chilly but at least the rain kept off. The fun was increased by having a certain member/passenger who was not too good at following the written instructions on the route to be taken. This caused a few nail biting moments here and there when one or more cats would disappear from our convoy! There is a story to be told here which I will let someone else recount. :smile5::smile5:

Just started the thread at the moment and will load my pics shortly.

Anyway, a great day and laughs to be had by all. A little birdie tells me Quicksilver will be the next one to run a meet in this area.
 
Thank you very much for organising this Viv :)
It was great to meet you guys!
Me and Emma had a great time as this was our first meet and we loved the tour of Bath!

We will upload our pictures soon ;)

Cant wait for the next one :D
 
Here we go then........

Colour co-ordination today was assisted by the fact we had 2 frosties, 2 ebonies and 2 blurples! I've never had that at a meet before. :yesnod::yesnod::yesnod::D

Thanks for coming everyone - I know some of you came a long way!!

Well done Viv and Spencer for getting your photos up. (y)(y)
(I'll post some if Matthew can find his camera....................:ihih::ihih::LOL::LOL:)
 
Message to Matthew via Quicksilver
Don't know what they were on about we don't seem to have missed much :eek:ut: and I think our idea of going back to the fountain for that second glance was a brilliant idea. It also should be pointed out that at no time did WE break the law and park on Double Yellow Lines :nono: or at least I didn't see any in the Travelodge car park. We were, after all only obeying your mothers instructions and staying where we were and not moving even though it was only round the corner from them. Hope you find your camera soon and get the Travelodge pics posted - that'll shut them up.

Looks like a really nice city.

I am lucky to live in such a beautiful city Tom. Its a bit like living in a time warp because all the buildings are listed and can never be changed. That can be a good thing but also a pain if you want to update something!
 
im not too far from bath, been there before and it really was beautifully refreshing!
when are u guys going to this again, as i would like to come along and show my cougar???

I'm pretty sure we will organise another meet this year in Bath, as I know alot of us enjoyed it, but would like to see it again. Would be great to get a bit more of a crowd next time though, so more Cougs the merrier (y)
