I can do old fashioned 

At least old fashioned meant that there was somewhere to get away from the lorries if you broke down. You also didn't have quite so far to go to get round the middle lane huggers who all seem to have moved to lane 3.

The good old days will come back, we just need a little bit more enthusiasm and commitment from everybody 

For those that have never been in a BIG convoy of Westfields, you don't know what you are missing, you WILL enjoy it 

I've put lots of yeller cars in, cos' everyone knows they're the best 

Quality before quantity any day

Back at you @Rednop1

I've thrown together a 10 min video of our run down. It'just under 1GB hence too big for Youtube or Whatapp etc. Send me your e-mail address via PM and I'll send via WeTransfer.
