Oh, what wonderful old cars.....

Thanks for posting that. Too many good shots to single out any one.

I can tell you that, Ian. He was asking the spectators for a push! He was in a Morgan 3 wheeler and he'd run out of room to make the turn. There's no reverse gear in a Morgan 3 wheeler....

Now that's worrying. Not just the thought of women and cars, but that you thought they could drive. (PC flame suit on)

I'm getting worried about Ag, I can see he will be needing a really big bag this season for all those lenses he will be buying..... You need a Billingham 555 you can get loads of lenses and cameras in them.

Nice work Ag, and no I can't remember those cars when they were new.

Well, if you've got a $10 head, wear a $10 helmet!
