That worked!! They look fantastic, many similar to my own funnily enough! Thanks for coming along, it was a great little cruise! Fantastic seeing the 2 Fiestas and 2 Foci, looking great. Glad to hear you're enjoying your new fiesta and I hope you enjoy many more cruises with us!!
Just replaced my headlight bulb which blew the other day ( a real dog of a job too!!!), so I will get the pics from the cruise up tonight, they look fantastic!! I'll chill out and have some din dins first!! Thanks also to Danny and melbzetec for coming along, good to see all new members there this time (at least new to cruises!!!). First cruise with no Mondeos I believe!!!!! We'll have to not make a habit of that! Anyway, I'm off but will post my pics shortly.

Very enjoyable day. Congats to Matt for organizing it.
A beautiful bit of country around Macedon to. Great to meet you guys. Great little car Helda (is that the right spelling?? probably not.) And Danny, that little Red Fiesta FLYS! ( How was the stupid girl tailgating you in the crappy Lancer on the way back???) And Matt, if you're wondering how I came up behind you on the way home, despite the fact that I was in front of you........................it's called a quick pee break at the BP servo!

Interesting observation. We were talking about the Euro rear wiper mod today.
On the way back I got behind a black Territory TX.........and the rear wiper looks suspiciously like mine! I will check one out the next time I'm at a shopping centre (to get up close and measure it), .......but we may have a home grown mod here. Stay posted

Ah HA! I wondered what you were piking for Steve, as we were making bloody good time there on the way home pounding along in the Zetecs, then ya turned off! Spose a Pee break is good reason enough to stop. I was enjoying the eye candy that was your car. Its awesome mate! As is Mats. As for the Flying Red Fiesta, I had a bloody great time on those curves, it was insane how that little thing just holds to the road like its on tracks. Couple of those corners I experienced the inside wheelspin on turn in and that was pretty cool. I absolutely loved it, cant wait to do it again, I'm so happy with that little mobile! Also, That moll in the Lancer was pushing it, Steve and I got our own back once she'd past, in the form of me sitting close beside her and steve behind her with all driving lights shining (such A nice front). I have some awesome shots but I cbf at the mo with blanking out numberplates so Ill have them up soon. -Danny |

Lol Obviously I'm joking mate, dont ever feel pressured to do anything you dont want to. Most of the time (bar one occasion) you were in at least one of our rear view mirrors so you did well!. I'm very impressed by the auto trans in your Fiesta! |

Looked like a fun day out, sometimes having a small group to go for a blast with is the best fun.
Good to see some new faces there! Tim |

Looks like I (yet again) missed out on a fantastic cruise, oh well, next time!
One day I swear I'll come on a cruise with you all in an 'old skool' Euro Ford...
