Attended the show at RAF Lakenheath today.Here are a few pics from the day.



We turned up in the Vette and truck













U.S Servicemans tasty Z06







U.S Security police making sure everyone is kept in check.hehe






First time i have seen a Solstice.I'm undecided on the looks.





Daddy of all trucks on the day.




And then it was time for the journey home,after what became a very "eventful" day for us

Hopefully that's not "eventful" in a bad way, mate?

Yes it was i'm afraid.Day started off well.Then two hours in to it my little girl thought it would be great to run full pelt in to the dropped tailgate on the Ram,causing a deep laceration to her head exposing part of her skull.With the wife in a bit of stress,and some help from some U.S Service personnel,we managed to get her over to the base hospital.Only to find that to the dismay of myself,my wife,and the airforce guys with me,they couldnt treat her,as we were non U.S military and they didnt have the insurance cover???.After many apologys from the docs and nurses on duty,they did bandage her head and gave us directions for the nearest hospital 22 miles away in Bury St Edmunds.After a further two hours and some excellent treatment from the staff at Suffolk General, we were back at Lakenheath,where my daughter was crying out to go on the bouncy castle.laugh.

Oh no! Glad she's ok though mate.

Some cracking photo's there by the way. I have a friend locally who has a Bullitt Mustang just like that - a fantastic looking motorcar.
