Event Memorial cruise for t-tony 19-10-2025

[Grumps]

It's yours.

Thanks mate. Is there a fitting charge?

 

[Grumps]

It's looking potentially like we may just about skim the rain, a northerly wind is pushing the rain band up and holding it from crossing east until about 1pm, hopefully we will all be in the pub filling our faces by then

Tony’s old Z4 was cleaned and serviced (oil and filter change) on Thursday by yours truly. Friday we turned the house upside down looking for my recent purchase of stick man but looks like someone has thrown it out and the bins got emptied Wednesday. Oh well did change View attachment 350669my RHA number back to Tony’s old one (BN53PYU)so not feeling too bad about the stick man. Hope someone has a spare which would make it near perfect. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
Just in case you don’t know Dave, Dawn has asked to come with me as I had a spare passenger seat, hopefully it won’t upset your numbers. Meet her at the start if all goes well. Looking forward to seeing you all as this might be my last meet with a Z as it has to go and be replaced by family saloon. I can’t really complain as I’ve been married for 53 yrs and had all my own choice of cars of which one she wouldn’t even sit in. ( the BEAST ) We have a Fiat 500c which I bought her for her her 70th birthday but we now find it too small for taking the grand and great grand children x6 out in, although it has been
one of the most reliable cars we’ve ever had ( probably because I’m not allowed to push it to its limits ha ha!!)
Tony’s old Z4 has been with me for the last 4yrs and been absolutely fine with only one visit to Lee and Gaz’s work shop recently for standard springs so the boss could feel a little happier with the low ride not grounding on all the sleeping policemen. But to no avail as the driver still didn’t slow down for them, truth is I’m comming up 78 and had a great driving life ( just ask me) and got better after meeting Tony and all the rest of you in 2014. R I P Tony cos you won’t be forgotten.
RHA, Roy.

We are bringing 2 white 6 inch stick men so you are very welcome to one? FOC of course

 

[Kate and rod]

That's what mine will get tomorrow....... if she's lucky

Wash your car? Rods asking what is this witchcraft of which you speak?

Wash your car? Rods asking what is this witchcraft of which you speak?

I’m just thinking about washing my non-Z for tmrw but then I’m thinking a 100 miles journey to arrive at the White Swan will undo all the cleanliness so…you can guess my conclusion

Thank you Kate and rod, this is why I’ll miss you all, maybe I’ll just turn up after the Z has gone in a Aston Martin, and watch out for the pigs flying with me.lol

 

[Rha]

Hi mate, yes i'm aware of Dawn running with you. You'd be ok to run her back to Shirls to fetch her car after the meal? It's about 15 minutes away.
@Rod and Kate have a spare white stick man, i'm sure now I've tagged them they'd be happy to let you have it Roy.

Thanks Dave, just knew you’d sort things if pos.

 

[ktnez99]

You are always, always part of our Z family, Roy, and must keep visiting our do’s or they just won’t be the same. Whatever you drive with be fine with us x

Think my small group will set off at 11:28 just to avoid the rain.

 

[Kate and rod]

Just arrived at the Black Horse in Blyton, looks like a nice place

 

[Alan Slade]

We arrived at the Black Swan at Marton just up the road from Torksey Lock yesterday evening, been out today to view the Lancaster sculpture at Newton Disney, loads of people had the same idea.
Looking forward to to the run tomorrow, meeting up with friends old and new.
If anyone is in need of a stick man, I too have a spare in white. FOC.

 

[Lee]

We made it. Passed a few zeds on the 180mile drive up. Now time to sink a few beers with @Nodzed

 

[Z Victor 1]

Could I have your spare Stickman please Alan? Ken.

 

[EnthuZiaZT]

Ok, I’ve had a good polish of the Zed today, all bright and shiney. So thought I’d check the weather forecast and the BBC predict ‘rain’ if they’ve got this right it will be a first. Anyway Looking forward to catching up with you all and meeting all the new faces. By the way, had a look at the pictures and could not see my White E89 in any of them, did see my G29 in one of them.

 

[Alan Slade]
