Glad you enjoyed it
, if the drive had gone smoothly you'd have had nothing to talk about in the pub Sat nite though 
Look forward to the vid, the second dip was a bit deep
Just glad we didn't have any casualty's. make note for Gem, next year have PH handles next to names on run list...
Thanks to everyone involved for a great day yesterday. Despite the weather, it was a huge success. Lunch was delicious and everyone really is sooooo friendly 'up North'! The swimming after lunch was a real suprise and I never have thought of it! Is there nothing a TVR can't do?
Have never done this before, so apologies for the absence of smilies - I can't make them work yet, so consider this a BIG SMILEY - thanks!

It was a great day. Superb lunch and a brilliant route. Pity about the rain slowing things down and making parts of it a real endurance trial. Some of those rivers we crossed were getting a tad deep. During one of the worst my daughter was thrilled to see the water getting thrown up as high as the car. I didn't see it of course. I had my eyes tight closed and was chanting 'please don't stall, please don't stall....'
Maybe next year Rich should refrain from doing his rain dance
Well done to Rich and everyone who else involved.
And don't be so hard on flyboy. I managed to get us lost and miss the last regroup point a few miles from home! When we got on the A59 I went onto auto pilot. Still the kids enjoyed their hour playing at the Nelson.

Hi Steve. You got back OK then.
I'm going to have to around the route again.
The window that was cured of its very long drop before opening the door seems to have dried out and is playing up again. Cerberas and electrics and water - an interesting mix.
'Do not power wash this engine bay' - but it doesn't say anything about washing them via total immersion

Aye - top day out on Sat
Even if the morning was a TVR lone group trying to catch up then realising I was in front! Doh! I repeated the first part of the route on Sunday afternoon in the Sun Great roads! How funny were those MG's? Particularly the one with the not quite spring chicken lady handing out of the window cleaning the windscreen as they chugged up the hill! :0
I'm also happy to report that the anti-stall on Cerbera's and Tuscan's can blow enough hot air out of their exhausts even when they are submerged! :0
EFI warning has finally stopped too!
Top day

Managed to sort it, but I'm fast losing the will to live now.
This is the biggest puddle we went through.
