Sounds nice.

My kids were away at nanny's last night so it was out for a meal, early night, then up at half four to get some original shots of a much photographed local scene (and home in time for the race!).

D'you go anywhere nice?

Same again John, thanks for the organisation, great time had by all, and second third fourth on driving skills and observance of the lower speed limits. Speak also for our two mates in the BMW's, they enjoyed also, want to come on the next.

I think what also made the run, was the low numbers of cars. Easy to keep grouped together.

Epic run, good work John. Funnily, this morning started the same for me as three weeks ago when I last posted - up at 3:45 for some pre-dawn snaps.

Just working on a few pics now - mostly a blurry M3 dashboard and the rear end of a 996 Turbo whistle

Little sod woke me up at 6 anyway... then I had to go on a D of E hike with some grumpy teens, then the power went off so my V+ box went wonky so the bloody GP didn't record and I had to watch it on the crap quality Iplayer on the PC frown
