We have just returned from a week's campervan holiday in England, 200 miles from home.  On our campsite, to our great surprise, the folks on the next-door pitch turned out to have their Cherry Red early Pearl with them.  We too have a Cherry Red early Pearl, but sadly not with us on that trip.

Is that just a staggering coincidence, or does Lord Austin still move in mysterious ways ?

I'd rather not say who they were, simply because I am not able to ask their permission to be mentioned.

Yes he does. Same happened to us on a site back in July. In this case it was a Chummy owned by people we know well.

I presumed it might be Tim, hence my question...

How lovely to see you on here again Aileen!

What a wonderful colour Rosie’s car is, I may be a bit biased on that of course!  Big Grin

A proper lined hood too - impressive!
