Well, I had a very interesting day out yesterday.

I left my house at about 9.30am and went to Donnington Park services where I met some fellow Lambo drivers. We had a quick hoon up to Donny park for some drifting in the gravel and a quick fling round the car park.

We then got caught up in the chaos on the M1 near Milton Keynes and 1 of us overheated. (not me for a change). After some help from a nice RAc man witha big bottle of water we were on our way again. Until Toddington services when I had my mirror swiped by a nice Sainsbury`s lorry driver (luckily it only smashed the mirror and took some paint off)

Anyway safely in London and after a quick visit to the Ace Cafe to get a bacon bap we went a tour of the capital taking in some nice tunnels and underground carparks. (revving to the max.)

We then braved the inner city roads and drove up into Piccardilly Circus, where we were overtaken by the Queen. Which was a first for me. Never seen her before let alone have her overtake.

We then went up through Trafalgar square and towards Knightsbridge where Dave at the back was puled by the police. And after telling him where we were all going and explaining that we were just on a drive Harrods he let him go.

So after the scare we went onto Harrods and saw the nice Aston DBS from the Bond film, plus the boat and some expensive kittens. And then on to the highlight of the day - The Harrods Krispy Kreme shop. Where we all got 12 Doughnuts each for £13.50. (I would defo recommend the Harrods choc special.

We had a quick visit to the Natural History Museum only to find it was shut. (Waste of a 10 min walk).And then it was round the M25 to Dartford and the lovely tunnel and back up the A1 home.

Pics and Vids will be following shortly when I have them sent to me.

Oh yeah forgot to add, a group of people thought I was Peter Petrelli from Heroes too. How ramdom.

Yeah can do. I finish work at 3.30 so should be home by about quarter to four. I can meet you somewhere or you could come round to my place? Up to you.

Would love to have a look around an SL.
