Today's meet was a joint meet, with our friends from the North East (England) Region, at the Boat Inn Restaurant, Leaplish Waterside Park, near Kielder.
Once again we were blessed with a nice sunny day for our meet - roof-down motoring for the zedders (I actually got burnt). However, it did go overcast and showery when we did the photos.

With the nice background of the Kielder Water, we decided just to park the cars on the boat ramp rather than move to another location (see photos below)

On the way back for some mad reason I followed the TomTom route and lead the group back via Jedburgh and the A68 - what a nightmare with speed cameras (I'm sure some of them are illegal as they were hidden behind trees/bushes?)
The only good bit was the new Dalkeith bypass which cuts a fair bit of the journey.

A big thanks to everyone for another great meeting.



Waiting for the NEs



3 Zeds



3 Red 3s



Plan A - we were going to line the cars up in rows for the group shot...



Plan B - we finally went for the semi-circle group shot
