You come along, on a well organised day, and bring shame to the club

The boys in blue were obviously feeling in a good mood to allow you to escape with a warning! hehe


It was a fabulous day! - Fantastic weather and some scenery to raise the pulse! WOW!
Those Cheviot roads are stunning.

I thoroughly enjoyed all 357 miles driving

It was a few cans of John Smith's for me. I was rather parched when I finally got to sit down and relax. Good to see so many cars, far more than I dared hoped for, it makes it all worthwhile.
