Thanks for the warm welcome back into the ' family ' from both myself, Simon and Chelcie. Personally I felt our pitch was excellently positioned and for those who didn't come due to not camping etc, do a G and book a nearby hotel or come for the day instead? As ever thanks to Shaun, Ade and G and to everyone who made comments on the old girl, (the Wannabe not the wife)! Thanks to Dave (P12DMR) for the morning coffees."

Thanks you all those who arranged things behind the scenes food, Fort NPOC etc. Had a real great time and almost ran out of air guitar music on Saturday night as we finished at 3.15 am LOL. Really knackered now. Good to see some old lost but not forgotten faces again. Cheers Andy and Ant for the beer and cider's during the day."

ALL the cars on the stand were looking the part as usual. Well done to all the folks that made it this year, let's hope we can get more people there next year. Thank you to everyone on the stand that made the 4 days so enjoyable for Kim and myself."

Although I could only be there for about 4 hours on Saturday, it was great to be amongst the NPOC family again. I tried to get round to chat with as many people as I could, as well as have a quick wander round the site. Sorry if I didn't get to chat to everyone. Also sorry to Rich, Tom and the others who weren't there when I left, which meant I was unable to say tatty-bye. All the cars looked fantastic and it was a pleasure to park the Nordic on the club stand."

Everyone there was like a family and there isn't a single person there that wouldn't have done anything for anyone else. Really great venue too, best JAE ever. Thanks to everyone who made it happen."

Thanks to Ade, G & Shaun for organizing the weekend for us, Roy n Kim for the marquee again and the 5* chefs Andy, Ant and others involved in feeding us all. Huge thanks to Dave for trusting me to drive his BTCC Livery inspired P11 to JAE, being behind the wheel of a Primera bought an instant smile to my face again. JAE took to long to get here, but was over before we knew it, roll on 2016."

Great plot this year and a fantastic time had by all. Great venue, lots of beautiful jap metal and just a corker of a weekend all round. Massive thanks, as always, to Ade, Shaun, and G."

Although they are always brilliant, this was one of my favourites and the people, the cars and the venue were all spot on! Clap Nice to have a few more people in attendance and hope we can hit higher numbers next year too. The weather was pretty good on the whole and thanks to the guys for making sure there was plenty of food and drink (which was also kindly topped up by Dave's shots, Tim's Jager and various drink over on the Micra stand with James to mean a 5am bed time and a rough feeling on Sunday morning!). Nice to have a good dance too and as well as all the YMCA and Fame stuff we also managed to get our rock on later via Dave's Nordic! Bring on the next meet and it was great to see everyone with the usual suspects and to have Nik welcomed back into the family too. Pretty sure that a good time was had by all and the usual laughs and good times rolled! In the words of Roy "Raise a glass to the NPOC family!"

Great to catch up with everyone for more fun and looking forward to the next one already."

Even the weather came and went from epicly wet to suns out, guns out! But there were no complaints about the weather, I think we'd have all taken that one, if it was offered up before we got there haha!
So my massive thank you to all that came out to this one, yep the numbers were low again for the 2nd year in a row but hey, the atmosphere and vibe between us was chilled and we had a cracker all weekend. The cars were varied between Nissan Primeras and others and all of them looked awesome and all had the right to be there because we are a members first / cars second club.
Thank you to all the members who helped out on the club stand, from setting up the stand, moving stuff around, prepping food, cooking food and constantly clearing up after everyone - You guys and gals do all of this in the background and you do it without being asked - Seriously, thank you!
Anyways, we represented very well as a club - That's down to you members that were there - You made this one a success.
I wanted to end with a new strap line... "If you didn't go to JAE, you weren't missed - You missed out!"
Many thanks and take care,
Shaun"
