Hi all just got home and un-packed.i would just like to thank all that turned up to ADI.we ended up with 19 cars on the stand-a different location to before but our cars looked very nice and got plenty of looks and questions.its a shame the sun didn't come out and play but at least it was dry.
i would also like to thank mike (skipton01)for doing all the organising and dealing with the payments.Dave(riverlad) did a great job suppling tea and coffee-very welcome.hope people enjoyed the bacon rolls along with the other hot food(thanks robin and Maddy for the bread)
it was only late last night i had realised i didn't take a single picture at ADI-i think i was just waiting for the sun-lol
it was nice to bring both our A2's to the show and nice that only one was running on three cylinders! there was a great mix of cars and colours-even a storm! thanks to Mr and Mrs pugliese.the day also had the added interest of seeing myta2's modded A2 in the flesh and see it in action on the track(video to follow)
only disappointment was that we didn't get a parade lap!! why? not really sure heard some reasons but they didn't seem to hold any water.

Is anyone else a little ill after there weekend at hilton? Me and chrissie seem to have both have the symptoms of food poisoning, while mine is not so bad as hers.
I did notice on saturday I felt a little strange, I know that there breakfast was not hot enough to stop food bacteria. However im not sure if you can become ill from this, and the only thing me and chrissie had different is the chicken on friday night, which I did think could have done with a little more cooking. I haven't eaten elsewhere over the weekend.
I already have a number of complaints to write to there GM, they had double charged me for the upgrade, the reception didn't believe or know that there was a half-price offers on the internet - I had to show her on my iphone my order! Their bathrooms are not as clean as they should be, service does not exist, staff have no manners. I'm not writing anything about the function btw.

Hi Richard sorry to hear that you both are un well.don't forget you both went out for food on Friday afternoon after booking in! So could this be the reason? Maybe stick to mac d's or burger king's lol as the curry at the camping didn't agree either did it.
Hope you both feel better soon and good luck to chrissie for Tuesday cheers mike
