I’m driving around the Suffolk & Essex villages with one of the vintage car clubs of which I’m a member. Stop off for the Sunday roast at lunchtime - has to be done. My chariot will be the Swift 12
‘M’ of 1923 vintage.
Who else and what is your chariot of choice for the day ?

I don't usually recognise it, as my old stuff is used all year round, but there's quite a lot going on locally... I may well pop out to a meet at a local car museum. I've been forced to refrain from driving since last summer, due to health reasons... so the opportunity to drag the old Laverda out for a spin may just be too much to resist. (The four wheelers are all suffering a certain amount of neglect due to circumstances.)

Our Riley is out of action for this year's DiD but we'll be returning from the Lake District to Derbyshire in our daily driver Fiesta so hope to see a few interesting cars, bikes and commercials out and about through Yorkshire.

That's lovely, was just admiring my pals Jota at the weekend - freshly rebuilt after a petrol hydro lock bent a rod and distorted the head. He sent the crank assembly up to a guy near Glasgow to rebuild. Lovely machines.
