Its nearly 150 miles from me and Im in the North East so it will be a long haul for anyone coming from down the country.

I so wish my car was going to be ready for this, I'll have to wait until the week after. Most of you will see it lying in bits when you go.

Glad this went as planned, I had one planned for next weekend but had too many people pull out so had to cancel it, I may get a half day if I can get 12 cars or so.
