Got back this evening 8.30ish.
A stunning long weekend. And well dun to all involved. Both the organisers and everyone attending.
It ment the were some new cars not seen before, and an excellent display of different cars.
Friday night way indead wet, but who cares it was also dark. But like it had been ordered or something. It dried up about half an hour before people started to leave for the road run, and stayed dry all day.
Sunday was a little scary for the static display. It rained heavily for 5 mins as everyone were putting cars in place. Then it just stopped and the rest of the day was beautiful.
I did have a couple of people comment to me how they enjoyed the company of the lads coming up from South of the boarder. You know who you are.
The road run was a little eventful for us, with my new navigator. We got "olly" round ok.
But there was an issue with an ex war department tyre blowing out on us on the last leg. However the tyre was old and hard enough to bring us home on a flat. ( perhaps I went a little to far on keeping the car looking original with the tyres). However the look of the car, did get her a first trophy in the vintage class.
Thank you for showing us on the road run, do you have any close ups.

Here is the result of our blowout.
I'll carry the subject into a new thread tomorrow.
