It would be great for you to join us on Sunday. We will be meeting up at the Starbucks on Doncaster Road, WF1 5BD at 9:30.

Typically, for the middle of July, the weather isn't too good for today's show at Walton. 

I'm still going, but might not stay for long. 

I'll be at Starbucks for half past 9.

I haven’t got a roof for mine it still raining near ponty. If it stops I’ll come out but if still rains might pop out in the daily. Totally gutted

It turned out not to be too wet today. Some drizzle, but no real rain. 

We managed 4 cars instead of the 9 booked in, but I totally understand why some didn't make it. The organisers must have been devastated after the previous sunny years.

A couple of things coming up, 

First, there's a new meeting for the Unofficial Yorkshire classic car group  on Wednesday, 17th at The Crusader in Garforth, LS25 2BY from 5pm. A bit early for a work day probably, but I'm having a ride over. 

Also it's the breakfast meeting on Sunday 21st at the Darrington Hotel, Darrington, Pontefract, WF8 3BL from 10am. 

And last, here's a video from Walton,
