Oh, and here’s one just for Becca @aeg

[Stuart]

Ta folks good day. Unfortunately I got wet on the way home and the M6 was a car park.......

This cool dude @Glynn Walters

 

 

has done a very impressive job of fitting another 1.8 litre mk2.5 MX5 NB engine into his car, only this one has got a turbo fitted to it

 

 

whoosh, it didn't overheat and nothing fell off, so Glynn was pleased to get some 'running in' miles done. Well engineered Glynn, for someone that works full time, you have really trapped on and got it done, in no time at all you are back out in Gnasher, great.

 

Early bird got the worm, bagging the best parking spot

 

 

 

The others soon lined up

 

 

 

and after a closed A38, Stuart did make the mammoth journey to join us too, along with Mark and Sonia in the SLK.

 

The museum's gathering was well attended and also included 'Morgans in May'

 

 

 

 

 

With Tony in his tin top, and Dave and Andy having to scoot off, that left the rest of us to go on the run out, keeping a careful eye on the black clouds, thankfully we were blessed with sunshine all the way and even got home in the dry. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the absence of all 3 Andy's we kept up the tradition of supporting the local cake industry going at Hulme End.

 

 

The monkeys tea party

 

 

Parked at Hulme End

 

 

 

 

I am sorry @Stuart that I didn't get a photo of your car, it was lovely to see you and let's hope it's easier for you next time. Tony @TM54, always lovely to see you and hope the lowered floor is a success. Lastly @Mark zawada, thank you for bringing Sonia, keep her warm and cover those ears and let's see you both on The Long Way North 2, you will make great memories together.

 

Thanks for coming everyone, see you next time xxx

Didn’t know @aeg particularly liked cows so here is a photo of our new neighbours. 😁 Seem like a friendly bunch and saves on the Green recycling.
