In Jamaica, a slice of lemon meringue pie costs $4.00 In Barbados, a slice of apple pie costs $4.50 In St Lucia, a slice of banana cream pie costs $5.00 In Grenada, a slice of pecan pie costs $4.25 These are the pie rates of the Caribbean. 😂

I owned VTL from 1982 till 2010. It’s what started it all. So pleased that you guys just love your cars

And the result... Yeah... my car is really filthy... and not going to clean it.

I prefer to have the commonly used steering wheel controls to be on paddles as I didn’t like how much my hand came off the wheel to get at the button. Plus it gives a less cluttered view. Granted It’s not my design apart from small tweaks but it’s perfect for me.

All the way, you did ask!

Starting to take a look outside.

Some people said was happy to pay. I want nothing for them, but they will be in my garage near to a pot. I would charge 2 quid for one of those. Whatever is left in the pot at the end of the day will go to a charity. (If the club has any suggestions about any of the ones we are engaged with, ill be more than happy to make the funds arrive). @Andy Banks ?

The grandson isn't quite big enough for a booster seat yet! 😂

Great run out today with my grandson....

Guys, I have 12 stickers written down... That means there is 5 left that haven said the colour (I´ve already gessed Adam´s and Russ ones...). I´m cutting them toonigh so If I don´t have the coulours I will just have to gess them.

It takes a lovely picture, close up you see a lot more evidence of it's 25 or so years.

First time on the rollers for my car last week, 150bhp at the fly - not bad for an old silvertop :D https://youtu.be/j8VyXKlvID0

Are you a member of the WSCC? If so i have a pair give to me by @Si.Dalziel and he said to pass them forward to a member.

Sorted

I think he was watching @Chris King - Webmaster and Joint North East AO track day videos.

I'm surprised no-one has pointed out the obvious - everyone knows that once the tap starts dripping, the only correct solution is an entire new kitchen. 😄 Mind you, I have the same kitchen tap I bought about 25 years back and brought with me when I moved house (I did put a new one in its place when I left...) Was going to buy a new one for the new place but no longer available...so I took it with.

hi chris do you remember in the 1970s when you brought your aston martins dbs for mots at our garage in handsacre with armitage along with many other classic cars, your name comes up in many a conversations about the history of our village great stuff chris nice to a met you regards eric hodson

Lovely run out this evening after a day of fitting stripes

So, here's a wee teaser for what's potentially in the pipeline.. Lee at Summit Technologies, renowned for the Raptor wireless steering wheel control and Talon digital control system amongst others, is looking into a concept design for kit cars predominantly the Seven/sevenesque. Current concept design is based around the OMP Targa 330mm flat 6-hole PCD steering wheel with a view that, should there be sufficient interest in another 3-spoke flat or flat dish wheel, then design progression will follow. Looking for feedback, comments and interest so let him know what you think .. keep it clean! 😄

Thanks Guys, he was sitting on a booster seat, maybe need to adjust the straps. I'll have a look at the Halfords one.

@Murraymint I got a 'Bubblebum' for my kids from halfords, it's perfect for the Westfield - clips onto side straps to stop it sliding forward and is inflatable so can be deflated and stowed easily. And more importantly the kids can see over the dash with a reasonably safe strap positon now :D Well worth the money. https://www.halfords.com/baby-and-child/car-seats/booster-seats/bubblebum-inflatable-booster-seat-black-575078.html

Great photo @Murraymint but id be looking to get those lap belts as far down and tight around the pelvis as possible then adjust the shoulder belts to fit. 👍

Well. I had some spare time now while Ana was drawing, and they are already done. There is 8 whites, 8 blacks, 2 yellows and two purples (I had small scraps of yellow and purple... so I used them). There is 20 stickers for 17 cars... Hopefully everyone will be able to match a colour.

I like the one on the right. I don't like the horn push though. To me there is too much writing on it.

He fainted when the pilot told him the Kingster had been his flying instructor. He vom'd when the pilot told him they were going to land now, but not to worry as Chris had explained all about it....

I laughed, I laughed out loud, people heard me. Now I feel kinda dirty!

Yes calm a soothing - like my microlight landings 😁

We used to do the highlands on sports bikes,glencoe,the road along lochness, Inverarry used to be a favourite the castle in green looked like something out of a fairy tale! Awesome fast roads.

I used to fly Paramotors for about 6-7 years .. seen some amazing views, wales, Scotland, Cornwall, France spain ... This was me flying Snowon.

Fitted the bonnet vents, windscreen wipers and given it a good polish... Still waiting for the IVA date G.

I'm not bored by these at all, I could sit and watch them all day! 😁

I hope I'm not boring You with those pictures and videos of my Westfield, but every time I take or get from someone else some pictures, or have a chance to drive and record some video onboard (especially when winning in general classification like below ) I want to share my emotions and present this Great Car to the World So hope You , as as well Westfield's Drivers understand me , and forgive me another video with snapshots included in it :

Thanks for the marketing info - could be useful to help me stay ahead of the competition

Alright all, decided to treat myself, been missing the westie and the TVR so I got this, as far as I was concerned it's a combination of the two plus you can turn the noise on and off

Difference Don is that in the UK we have lost the will to say Just F...ing do it. Here we would have at least two dozen meetings before agreeing the spec. Then before appointing the firm to do it they would have to tender with all of their diversity policies and any other desirable boxes ticked. Then they would wait until a committee decided which quote to go for and before they could start work there would be bio study to undertake and if it was an old roman road an archaeology study. If that all passed then they would start the job but as they have quoted so much it will have to take a long time otherwise the authorities will feel it has taken not long enough to to have cost so much. This happened near Bath. A road collapsed and the council took so long a man built hos own bypass and recouped his money before they had done the road. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-28639196#:~:text=Mike Watts created the shortcut,February due to a landslip.&text=Mr Watts rented part of,road%2C bypassing the damaged highway.

Have a great day @Dean Goodall 🥃

Happy birthday Dean. Enjoy your day 🎂 🍺🍺

I have a fairly small 3-hole SPA wheel, which necessitated keeping the buttons fairly close the the centre

A few from this afternoon around Loch Garten and Cairngorm, still Some patches of snow clinging on in the gullies lol
