	Just thirteen more sleeps* and it's Gathering time once more. Excited much? With a bit of downtime on my hands I figured I'd have a trawl through both my own archives and the ones on here, in order that through the medium of photography I could attempt to convey the spirit of the event, both for those who are veterans and for those for whom 2012 will mark their first visit to what must surely be now THE** best weekend on the calendar. Enjoy. :Thirteen sleeps for those camping on Friday... *: Photography credits- Steve Prior/Andy Hinks/Ryan Langford/Chris Pollitt/Brian Andrews-Rowley/'Spiny'/Rich Skuse/Zoe Robinson/Mark 'Hairnet' McNally/Seth Kennedy/Scott Andrews/Chris Frosin/Dave Harmon i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa65/sethke/Classics%2011/RRGathering/Rrgathering_090.jpg[/img] Take it easy out there. See you in a fortnight, you lovely people.

	Harumph, I've just spent 2hours (inbetween work) writing a massive post with pictures summing up each year with pictures and everything only for my IE to crash. Anyway, I'm fully excited for this, I'm hoping to have the Chrysler running tonight as I bolted the carb down last night but failing light stopped me from finishing it off. The countdown has begun...

	Having been to every show thusfar, and seeing it expand and evolve, I can only echo the sentiments already expressed. Its been epic every year so far, and RRG'12 is fixin' to be the same.
