Thanks, Tony & Shirl for an amazing 'Top Down' day, we thoroughly enjoyed every minute as usual and I was actually able to decipher all my homework too!! I hope that all of our Zedders had a great time as well, they say time flies when you're having fun, that was so true today
Thank you Shirl for all the effort you have put in to make the day special and for those delicious cookies too!!

Here's our pics:-

Thanks again for everything.

Thank you Tony for a superb day out. You must have put many hours into the preparation and it payed off for all of us. Well done Jim you led our little group at a nice varied pace and kept us all together nicely, and thanks to Redline for some cracking photos. Not forgetting Julie and her staff for a lovely lunch and coping so well under the pressure of so many rolling up one after another needing a cold drink and a hot meal.
If you run it again next year and we are allowed back we will book a room and make a weekend of it.

@Redline the pics are great mate. Good on ya for taking the time to come and be official photograffy type geezer. Like I said to you yesterday I thought you were there running a group.

Many thanks to Tony and Shirl for organising the cruise, thoroughly enjoyed the day. Great to see so many Zedders supporting the event.
Sorry we missed the cakes afterwards, really needed to be back home by 5 o clock. Look forward to a few more meet ups next year.

Karl & Dawn

Are the brakes OK now Karl?

A big thank you to @t-tony and Shirl for organising a fantastic cruise, which I think was throughly enjoyed by all who took part. The effort you put into the planning is fantastic, and much appreciated.
Thanks also to @Grumps for the weather, @Redline for his fantastic pictures and to our team leader @Jjim, who kept us on the straight and narrow. Linda and I had a fantastic weekend, with the White Swan playing a big part in it. So thanks to the staff for their efforts in feeding us on Sunday, and putting on a great night of entertainment on Saturday. Staying at the Black Swan with the other Zedders was great too.
I hope Tony and Shirl put this on again next year.
A few of our pics.

Thanks to all who attended for making it a great weekend.

Are the brakes OK now Karl?

It was a strange one, the ABS light has been on for awhile due to the rear brake sensors need cleaning / changing. On the way to cruise, I was braking up to a roundabout and felt quite a heavy judder on brake pedal when stopping, and ABS light and traction lights went out on dashboard.
When braking afterwards I could feel a judder at the end of brake travel ?
Then once got started on the cruise the lights came back on, but brake judder disappeared.
The car goes into its Winter hibernation the end of September, so will take opportunity to check the pads, sensors etc and make sure alls well for next year.

I found a bit of video as a small tribute to Ian @Redline in the shade of a tree at the first photo stop. 33 seconds in.

Out in the wilds of Lincolnshire, a few miles from Lincoln . First bit is a bit shaky so re loaded it but the same.

Straight off the dash cam downloaded to my PC it's great Ian, I used Bing and Google but both are poor. Sorry mate, in you moment of fame. Thank you all the same.

No criticism intended. Digital cameras don’t cope with high contrast like that. When you upload they apply aggressive compression too. That doesn’t help quality one bit.

Besides - I’m used to being kept in the dark

 

[t-tony]

YouTube used to offer their own video "adjustment" to make shaky videos better but these days they don't. As I said, on my PC straight off the SD card it's much clearer and we can see you waving clearly.
