DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Well just got back and I left about 11.30 just as the beer tent opened and Boosty made a B line for it So god knows what state he is in just buy some more raffle tickets this year...

Good to meet a few people there my car didn't make it but I did.. and I got my job done up there as well.

I did get to see the Silver 911 of Steve's ( i think he was called Steve ) Nice car and very noisy....cool.

Well in the line up in the end was 6 cars so not too bad and the line up looked good the Gazebo was still standing when I left and the day was rain to start but bright sun when I left..

I bought another car ops already got it in bits and scattered about my office..

remember these...

Just having some fun with this..

so do I add Holiday Buggy to the list of my cars

I had one of those a rough rider back in 1980.

Nice bit of vintage r/c you got there Mark, takes me back...

I had one of these...Kyosho Scorpion

Then one of these...Tamiya Wild One

But I always wanted one of these..Sand Scorcher

the sand scorcher even has the black and yellow CA plates

Yes I have been on the look out this afternoon on the internet for a Sand scorcher and a F150 Ford pick up truck and they go for silly money I saw one for £300!!!!

Me thinks I got a good buy today and a new hobbie oh god there goes another 8 hrs a week

The only trouble is the batteries only last for 15 minutes, and take 12hrs to charge . but great fun.

I know I forgot that bit. I can say now I can afford the batteries for the toys now. Cos when I was a kid all my pocket money went on batteries and Duracell where the best to buy but I just couldn't afford them so Tesco's crap that lasted just as long as my first pint on a summers day

oh it's all good fun.... other half is doing this lots.....


never mind she's off to Sugar Babes concert in Bournmouth tonight... so I am playing... Should be able to go for a drive in the new toy tomorrow

Blimey - a blast from the past - I used to have a 'Holiday Buggy' amongst others....

Great show, some amazing vehicles - I'll post some piccies this evening

Great event as usual......here's some piccies;

too much stuff indoors, but none of my pictures came out that well, plus there were too many people about, quite a few here though http://www.hertsvwclub.org/

Great to see you all over the weekend. Sorry if I was a bit more subdued than usual - a lot going on at home

Still, it was a great weekend and nice to spend a bit of time with some great people.

My digi camera is playing up so I haven't downloaded any pics yet - I will though.

Thanks for the support everyone - a really nice mix of cars on both days!

and just fresh from the track

Steve starting his engine and leaving the club area on Saturday was one of the highlights of the show, he scared the sh*t out people, very loud - just as someone was saying you can't beat the sound of six clyinders.

Great to meet those of I briefly did meet on both days and put some more faces to names (Alam - sorry about the disguise). It was a funny show, including a very funny Saturday night, thanks for that Bootsy.

Cheers
