Yep me and 'her indoors' might well go for a run out in the Vette on Sunday.

I know the NSRA chairman from years ago. He was chairman of the Boston custom car club that I used to be a member of. Time for a catch up maybe.

Never got to see ou at Kimbolton, so if you spot me Sunday come say hi.

nice one Ian, yeah sorry about that at Kimbolton, i did intend to say hello to a few folks at PHEA's display, but i was so surprised by the amount of people there stuffing themselves with burgers, hot dogs etc, that i decided to just get on with snapping the cars instead!
if i do see you at some point i will indeed say hello!

Might try and pop over on the Saturday - would be good as one of the cars I'm interested in when I sell the TVR is a C6 Vette.

Friend's just told me he's off to an NASC one at Trinity Park in Ipswich this weekend, did fancy Shuttleworth originally though.

Not sure where this one was going this afternoon, was out at the end of the village, not looking to happy with that caravan



ETA I usually spend this weekend in the garden of The Green Man at Stanford...Beer, BBQs, free air display and lots of autoerotica.

this must be a big weekend for all the regional rodders it appears, some of these are quite fascinating looking creations indeed IMO, looking forward to seeing/snapping a few!

liking that one you saw just outside the village there Gretch (there used to be a pub where them new houses are now a good few years ago, closed for refurbishment and got redeveloped instead IIRC...) Aero 8 esque wings and lights on a Ford Pilot/Pop!

Green Man at Stanford sounds a nice pub (whats on tap?...) enjoy!
