Did we all have fun in the sun today? cool

Lets see your snaps.

I popped over to my favorite watering hole for a spot of lunch & Enzo man seemed to love my old Chim.

Should I have accepted his offer of a swap?







What a perfect TVR day biggrin

Had a good old hoon this morning up until I had an o/s rear puncture. A 4" screwdriver blade pierced the tyre right in the middle of the tread. Just managed to get home in time for my usual Sunday dinner time pub session so could have been worse!

I met up with a bunch of friends from a pilots' forum. With tongue in cheek, we call ourselves the Sky Gods' Sports Car Club, and meet from time to time for a pub lunch and to gawp at each other's cars. This Saturday's venue was The Compasses at Pattiswick, and this time everybody managed to arrive - even the organiser's Jensen Interceptor made it, albeit with water pissing out of its radiator as it turned into the pub car park. After a jolly lunch, some of us went in convoy to Andrewsfield airfield for a photo line-up.

Someone quipped that it was a World War II line-up: Germans, Italians, a Jap, and a plucky Brit. We were supposed to have an American Ford pick-up as well, but he arrived too late for the photo wink Naturally the French were nowhere to be seen...





Here's me grinning like a goon in the 355 Spider...

Bugger! I really must keep an eye out for runs out nowadays (although I guess I am now Wiltshire)...

...did too many years of PH runs *BEFORE* getting the Tiv and need to make up the numbers with it! biggrin

You were held up by the Caterham we was backing off as I was firing stones at the poor guy,(sorry) as I was criss crossing the road to take the best line!

Either that or my Skoda is faster then a Caterham getmecoat.
