That's Hywell Jones, it was 'my' car but he persuaded me with some of his EU farmers subsidy money and l weakened. Lives over the back of Brechfa in a place that is spelt all c's and y's Totally unpronounceable. Somewhere over by Dannyboy if l recall.

It is a quick car, only about 350 hp but feels a lot stronger for some reason.

Good luck all SWS guys and gals have a good Xmas.

You cant beat a bit of subsidy money and nothing like borrowing a few hundred sheep to get your quota up $$$$$$$$$$

I thought it was quite poor to be honest, the last meet before xmas and the last one for Kev as the R/O.

About 6 cars turned up.

December is always a bad month for these kind of things, X-Mas parties, nights out and visiting friends/family. I was busy and think this is only the 2nd one I've missed in nearly three years.

Dont get me wrong I know December is a busy month for everyone and for peeps like yourself Danny who travel quite a distance to attend, hats of to you mate.

People on other posts though seem to come out of the wood work now to start complaining about the previously dates and times of meets on weekdays, which I remember along time ago this was always a problem as there aren't many places to allow groups of cars enthiuasts group in one place on certain days and times.

We got lucky with the Toby as its a big car park under lighting, with a pub/Rest so close incase peeps wanted to eat or have a drink when it rained or got cold.

I'm probably getting my knickers in a twist about nothing but thats my opinion anyway.

May have only been 6 or so cars but around 15 peeps in total which for the time of year is expected.

I made good use of the lift and had a few jars so I was happy

Kev, Surely you are not suggesting that the EU farm subsidy quota can be compromised or corrupted? And what about paying people to do NOTHING with their fields? I'd like to not use half of my workshop and be paid for it that'd be a winner.

So I guess I must be implicated in this, every time a farmer comes to me and spends money on parts for his car - sort of like fencing stolen [ money ] goods.............

Every one's a winner in the EU farm subsidy quota , except the tax payer and the poor sheep

Farmer gets the money from the subsidy and spends it on a 4 wheel drive vehicle (Subaru), farmer then needs a remap (needs extra power to get up them hills) a visit to API, then discovers he needs bigger brakes ( to get back down those hills) another API visit

See it all makes sence in the end.

Can't fault your logic ! I'd better open a branch up in the Vall Lees then.

Instead of luncheon vouchers, we'll take subsidy vouchers.
