Whats the latest on the family day at Marham ? are there many of the PHEA going?

[Naughty Magpie]

I'm going! And Mr Magpie (Scott) is too.

Just forwarded details to you all from an e-mail I recieved from Mark today.

Not many of us though! Naughty Magpie and partner. Tankerman and partner. Simon and Dawn. Me and my youngest daughter.

Should be a great day

And of course I'll be there too with the MGA - as of today, the off roader is also now back on 4 wheels after repairing the accident damage from the last championship round, so that should be up there as well. See you there,

To get out of doing lines, may I suggest that, when confronted, you state that the work you were engaged on was classified and in the interests of national security you are unable to disclose what you were doing. It might work..... see you on Thursday!

fingers crossed for the weather tomorrow, My car is no fun in the rain water gets in everywhere, with the roof on I can hardly move,
the forcast is for heavy showers what would this mean to the air display? low cloud etc. Been looking forward to this all week.

I was going to wash the cars last night but got stuck in the biggest traffic jam & storm known to man (took us 4.5 hours to get 10 miles!) & now woken up to see it's still very wet so the car will most likely get filthy on the way there in a few hours. We might be turning up with two slightly muddy cars. I do hope the weather is good though.

What a really great day, enjoyed every minute. It was also good to meet some new faces.hope you all got home safely.

We went through a short downpour on the way home but just kept going, didnt get too wet. it was baking by the time we got home

Had a great time today
I felt very privaleged being there. Thanks for inviting us Mark. The best air show I have been to.
Good to meet Hannah and Scott at last!

The rain kept off while we were there, but on the A10 on the way home it absolutely chucked it down. Never seen rain like it in my life!! It got a bit scary driving the Ultima. At one point I could'nt even see the road, but was too afraid of stopping in case I got hit from behind!

Thanks Mark - fantastic day. Thankyou for inviting us.
We managed to get back without getting too wet also. have some pics too, will put them up shortly.

[MG Mark]

Thanks all - I'm glad you enjoyed the day and got back safe and sound through varying amounts of rain. Rather a lot of it fell on Marham from about 4.30 pretty continuously until 8.30. I'll post any links to photos etc once they are up. The post-day testing of the spaceframe worked well too, if somewhat rain-drenched! It makes for a nice relaxed day when you have an air display in your back garden (so to speak) and it was really nice to see you and your cars there - I'm just glad to have been able to share it with you.
