I had my S at that time... miserable realisation my car was the dullest there and to top it off, despite dowsing myself in insect repellent and wearing a baseball cap the whole time, I got a stripe of 27 gnat bites across my forehead... fair play though, the 480 bug bit me too ;)

In 2005 we had a convoy from the Little Chef, junction A483/A5152 near Wrexham; seemed to work well.

..i'm so into this idea. Some of the best times i've had have been at 480 meets. - And i have a varied and interesting life.

The skyline guys think they have good meets. They know nothing.
