The South Wales lot decided to meet up in the middle of the Black Mountains for a Nice cross country thrash. Awsome Day, great banter, new faces and proof that Welsh roads rule  Big thanks to Mr Simes for arranging everything
Enjoy 
(Sorry Tom, the others coming back the other way came out terrible so they got binned  )

It was a brilliant day, and I think all that turned up had a really good time
Cheers for all the great photos Rob (and AlunJ - found here), but its all very well me arranging it mate - if you guys hadn't turned up, it would all have been pointless  Seeing everyone enjoying themselves like they did today makes the work put in very worthwhile, so thanks to all that did turn up.
As said earlier, we are probably doing another one of these over Easter, so if anybody from other regions wants to tag along, keep an eye on our region or make yourself known to me, and I'll make sure you get all the details of the next trip 
Thanks again guys!

yep... Gives me an excuse to buy some new ones and get them sprayed anyway. Need to find my C-Spanners so I can put the front end up. Job done!

It was indeed one hell of a blast, and one of the best roads I have ever driven along, I remember someone saying its like a welsh nurburgring and you wouldn't be far wrong lol. The clio was immense, I was just about managing to keep up with the 1.6 sports but that thing was unbelievable. Deffo up for doing this again when the cars running properly.

The clio was awsome, sounded great too. I'm still trying to convince myself not to take the car back to north wales this weekend though!
