What a great night night last night at The Thistle hotel J23. A good time had by all. Great food, great entertainment (David Suttons speech was hilarious) and a perfect venue. Thanks to Phil & Lorraine for organising a top notch do.

Me, Martin & Barry Hollamby from Car SOS

Thanks Phil.

We both really enjoyed the evening.

A lot of effort and hard work went into the whole evening and it really was a great celebration of all things quattro

Thats some impressive organising, wish I could have made it.
Also wish I had half as many enthusiastic members to help celebrate club Audis 25th anniversary.
Good luck for the next 25years

I saw a white UR, I think it was WJS 1X, southbound on the M6 near Wigan yesterday (Sat) afternoon about 3.15 - was it heading for the Thistle?

Many thanks to Phil and our technicians that worked a 19 hour day installing lighting, sound, stage set, plasma screens, dance floor, video, room dressing etc to help transform the room.

A special thanks to our host for the evening Chris Milow from Wish FM, Mike Christie for sharing his magic with us, singer Tom Loughlin who received a standing ovation and Lee and his team at the hotel for looking after us.

Thanks also to our special guest from Audi UK and club President David Sutton.

Congratulations to all the award winners.

Finally, a huge thank you to everyone that bought raffle tickets and bid in the auction to help raise funds for the Henry Surtees Foundation.

Yes Chris it was Bill Smith.
14 URs,an R8,and several other Audi's graced the car park and the hotel manager even took his staff out to see the line up.The whole night was certainly a highlight of the year.
You missed out Chris.

You can do it online or ring Salvadore and he will do the paperwork.You will probably get a reduced rate as its late in the year.

Had a great time, Phil. A great end to the clubs Tour of Scotland and Northumberland, and Liz enjoyed it all too. Thank you for all your hard work to organise.
