Fifty shades of Skyfall (ing) . . .

Post by jaxZ4 » Mon Apr 29, 2013 10:49 am

I know these pics should really go in either the Scottish Argyll or National Z4 day thread but given that grey/silver was clearly the colour of choice for yesterday’s meet, complemented by some Scottish skies, I though the title was fitting . . . .

Sorry I messed up the dress code for the Skyfall shot – thinking this stop was on the return leg (must read the route directions more accurately) – I should have been in a suit proper.

Despite the rain we enjoyed some fine driving on an excellent route and a stunning scenic lunch spot – well done to John for organising and great to meet some new faces. We drove around 260 miles in total but I know some did more – well done. Looks like The Kent meet had better weather but our scenery might just have shaded it . . .

Great pics Jack :thumbsup:

My head says I'd rather have the better weather (and we've some great roads down here), but my heart really misses the rugged beauty of the glens and shattering the quiet with a roar :wink:

Nice photos which capture the conditions - all seasons in one day drove from Balloch all the way home with roof down and shades .

Just cleaned a fair quantity of Argyll off the Car - right up there this one :driving:

Good job we met for Coffee Jax or I'd have been not at the Start :oops:

Many thanks to John for the great day out. Despite the weather Sarah and I enjoyed meeting everyone and having a blast round the route.
Hope to meet up with everyone again soon.
