Was trying to get the forms off but forgot. Work etc. Are you showing or visiting?

Showing...
Should be a good turnout from Bristol as Sarah had the three line whip out and about. People who went two years ago say it was a top day out and it's all in aid of Leukaemia Research so I've been looking forward to it for a while

You should see Dans footage of the La France! 14 litres, chain drive, wooden spokes and didn't even slow down for the speed humps

If there are any spare spaces let us know otherwise see you there.

Suppose once the chain driven thing gets wound up it can't stop

PS our lot are in France I think.

Jeff, I can trust your instinct on this one. Do you think we need to take our own supplies or will several cows be sacrificed in our honour?

Never been there before so cannot comment on the burgers. I will of coarse have to test a few to make sure they are up to scoffing standard. Maybe several but it has to be done.

F Me!
That was a huge event. Over 1400 exhibited cars!
Not too many exotics, so the TVRs shone in the crowds; only the tanks and vintage fire engines got more attention.

A big thanks to the organisers for supporting such a worthy charity and for such faultless organisation.

Highlight of the day for me was entering the arena to show off my SEAC. The commentator had his back to me when I blatted the throttle and he jumped nicely
An unexpected side effect of this display was that a young girl at the front of the crowd burst into tears! It wasn't big, it wasn't clever - but it had to be done

Superb day. Nearly missed you in the arena. But you can't mistake a SEAL making a noise. From the side lines the comments ranged from show off (only heard one of them) to corrr, many many of them. Post some piccies shortly.
