They kindly block off our own section to park so our cars don’t get touched or damaged and give us a great big table to sit together and chat.

Great pictures elton and also being my first time coming down to see you guys, I thought it was a great venue.
Met up with Steve an Angie after not seeing them for a while so that was good and then went back to Rays for a coffee afterwards.
Now the bad news!!!
Finally got home at about 11 o clock to find we was a car missing from outside my house but not thinking the worst, we thought that maybee my daughter had come round during the day to borrow it.
Parked my truck up and went inside and there was a card on the floor from the cops telling us that our golf had been involved in a RTA and had been recovered by a recovery company and a phone number so on the blower we gets and apparently an hour prior to us getting home, some numpty was seen racing through our village and had hit our car head on.
He was drunk and had tried to leave the scene of the accident but due to the cops being there within a minute of it happening, he didnt get far and was spending the night in the local nick.
We went to see the car today and it is a total write off even the battery was in two pieces. The other guys car was also at the same recovery place and his was just as bad but the scary thing is that in the back of his car was child seats and a pushchair.
The recovery guy recons that he hit our car so hard that it took off because the next door neighbours wheely bin was underneath our car and it had been pushed back into the neighbours car as well so consiquently we have been on the phone with insurance today and we are now after another golf.
