Braving the wintry weather which was fine in the end and taking time out from any Christmas shopping or other responsibilities, Vel Satis Owners Club stalwarts Oliver & David Hammond, Robert Korczak and new member Brian Neil, along with wives and girlfriends, me up at Westmorland Tebay Services on the M6 near Kendal in Cumbria. More cars were expected but poor Matthew from Bolton had to drop out as his car has a leak and David who we were all looking forward to meeting wasn’t well. And where the other two got to, who knows! Anyway we all enjoyed the mutual Vel-Satis-loving company, the excellent Tebay food and a nice scenic drive organised by Robert, followed by coffee and cake before saying goodbye until 2012. Big respect to Brian and Iris for coming down from St. Andrew’s. We really enjoyed meeting you in the flesh and will certainly hook up with you in 2012 at some point. Thanks also to Kasia and Izzy for the first batches of great photos. Best Wishes for the rest of 2011 and we look forward to the next VSOC meet soon. Here are the photos!
