Hi all,

Took the wedge along to the Central Scotland monthly TVR meet at Broomhall Castle yesterday. First time in almost two years. I was a bit nervous with the wedge being off the road for so long. The wife followed behind with a stash of tools just in case and the two wee girls who wanted to see the castle.
Well, I am extremely pleased to say that after 120 miles of mainly motorway driving, it never missed a beat, I didn't push it though. Unbelievably I appeared to have done 27mpg! (120 miles, appx half a tank, say 20 litres, at 4.5 litres a gallon).
The best bit of the day wasn't the immaculate Cerb, the three S (one was rather mucky though), or the Tamora, but my 5 year old insisted the sticky toffee pudding was the best bit! Thanks Tye.
Roll on the RNR.
Marcus

Thanks...Did you send your phone up on a balloon and shoot it with an air rifle at the right time or was this taken with a drone?

Hi Mark, I flung one of my girls the top rampart and told her to take a pic, lol!
I believe it was a drone, it was an old pic I had on the phone, so can't claim the pic for my own.
Not too many pics taken yesterday.
