| This year several PECUK members
from both the UK, Germany & Holland attended the Panther International
Rally organised by Roland & Angelika Klause. This took place at
Sittensen over the w/e of the end April beginning May. Those of us
travelling from the UK had decided to have a break in the journey &
stop around half way.
I would like to thank everyone for the hospitality shown to us, the whole weekend was very well organised & we were very impressed with all the English translations. Full marks to Roland and all his family - 'til the next time....

Here is the bedroom from our hotel stop over on the first night. The staff were very friendly & opened the restaurant just for us. |
On arrival we were shown to our own dedicated parking area.
|
||
Local Club members Alexander, Gerd & Marion came to join us for dinner. This is Alexander's Kallista.
|
Gerd, Marion & Alexander arranged to come back for breakfast and were going to lead the convoy in their J72 on its final leg.
|
||
We were all introduced to Ferdinand the resident guest Pig, we were assured that she was never destined for the dinner table! She is only three years old but absolutely enormous...
|
|||
The Hotel had arranged for the local press to come over in the morning so we rearranged the cars, note the lovely sunshine.
|
|||
Two hours into the trip to Sittensen Gerd guided us in to a pull-in and as a surprise they then set up a table with a white cloth cakes, coffee & sherry along with a big bowl of grapes from Alexander. Thank you Left to Right - Alec, Gerd, Marion, Clare, Andie, Mary, Roy, Shelagh, Alexander, Pearl, Les, Dave. (Dave & Gill not in picture)

Getting ready for Saturdays drive.
|
Don't blame us for parking 'nose in', we just followed the others!
|
||
Here is Roland & Angelika's car looking very nice after its restoration.
|

Chaos at the garage when 40+ Panthers pull in!!!
|
It must be the record for number of Panthers in a filling station at one time.
|
||
Here is my sturdy beast (the car!!) Shelagh did a great job in navigating us all there & back without getting lost..
|
|||
Look out - Level crossing ahead!!
|
|||
Now that's better..
|
Neat proper parking this time!
