Thank You AONE
Firstly, I’d like to thank everyone that has taken part or even showed an interest in the meetings and events we have organised during the last twelve months.
My personal highlights include; the run over to Penrith for very well attended multiregional meet in April, Auto Italia in June, my adventures both before and during the first North Wales run in August and our visit to Alexanders in October.
Secondly, I’d like to nominate a member of the year for 2008. The award goes to an owner of several Alfas, including a stunning Sud, a surprisingly nippy 33 and an oil burning GT.
Step forward Vespa T5!!
And finally I’d like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and I look forward to seeing you all again in 2009.
Cheers
Ros

Re: Thank You AONE
Nice one Geoff and well done Kev !
And cheers Bry
I think ive had one of my best car related years so far, mainly down to AO.
Ive met some top lads and lasses along the way and look forward to many more years of the same.
Im still kicking myself for not knowing about AO for years of ownership of my previous 156.
Seasonal greetings to everyone and all the best for '09.
CHEERS

Re: Thank You AONE
Nice one Ros
Congrats Kev
A bat on the back to the NE Region you are one of the true AO Established regions and I love getting up there when ever I can.
I'd like to thank you all for the warm welcome you give me every time I come up that way
You can bet that there will be more of the same in 2009 and I'm sure Ros will be there doing a Grand job as ever
All the best
Tony

Re: Thank You AONE
Cheers Geoff, it's good of you to spend the time organising events, it was good to meet you all at the Alexander's do a few months back.......I look forward to attending many more events in 2009!!!!
Hopefully next year might bring me a 156 GTA SW, providing someone buys my current collection of vehicles!
All the best to all AONE members!

Re: Thank You AONE
Thanks Ros and a merry christmas to yourself and fellow AO's.
I echo what Bacon said about not knowing about this place a few years earlier, but hopefully can make up for it in the years to come.
What I'm really looking forward to is getting along to one of the multi region or national meets............did i read somewhere that there's plans for a AO national meet this year?

Here's to a parmo filled 2009

Re: Thank You AONE
Cheers Geoff, been a canny year. Run over to Penrith was a highlight, seeing bacon in my rear view mirror with the light bar on his roof was particularly memorable, as was my sideways moment with pabloss behind me on the way down hartside pass
Roll on 2009.

That was indeed a great day out, Bacon's light bar must have been the highlight
When I get a permanent job I will definitely be up for some more AONE days out
