After not really seeing anyone else for ages, on the way back from the Lake District on Sunday we saw:

Black Griff (TVR **X) and a green flip-paint T350 on the M6 (lost you after the toll road)

Light Blue (sorry, don't know the colour) Chim on the M42/M40 drivven by a very unhappy looking lady. Cheered up when we waved though.

Yellow Chim further down the M40. we waved as we went past. Can't remember what junction it was, possibly the A34?

Finally a dark blue Chim 500 driven by a lady with a guy in the passenger seat on the A40 who we followed right past Hanger Lane. Lost you when we did a sneaky inside lane thing.

The only time I've ever seen so many TVRs is at a meet. I was getting abuse from the GF that they were too common and we should get something different!

Was this yesterday afternoon? They could have been on their way home from TVRCC Mini Back Home at Blackpool. We had about 50/60 cars at some points over the weekend.

I think that was the case with the T350 and the Griff. Not so sure about the others. I guess I'll have to wait and see

Hi

Yes t350c was mine, and you lost me because i wasted time begging for change at the toll thingy. Yes we were coming back from mini back home too. Nice to see a friendly tvr driver!

Beautiful colour. I did wonder where you got to though. I don't think I would have kept up on the rest of the M6 ...

Right. Who were the others?
