i seen your sprite there surfblue63 must have been a long drive for you

I drove down to Newbury, where I stayed, on Saturday. I left a 6 in the morning a took it easy, making a couple of stops on the way, and got there at about 12.30. I drove back up north on Monday and it took 6 hours to get home. About 10 miles from home a scrapping noise started coming from the front. It appears that both the mountings for the disc backplate have fractured and it decided to rest on the disc, causing the noise. I'll get under the car later in teh week and pull them both off and chuck 'em in the bin!

Anyway it was a good weekend with loads of good cars to see and old faces to speak to. I'll be going again next year as there is always something special to see.

What a great day out again, thoroughly enjoyed myself. Made the TMF photo :blink: Nice to see so many turn up to it :crazy:

Was great to see some TMF'ers to say hello to, both Craig's, Tim, Shifty, Roo etc. :)


Looking forward to SMD now :)


P.S Mini Jon - you took a piccy of Henny, but didn't say hello! ;) :)

Took me ages to work out who you where heather ;)

You where waving at craig and i was trying to work out whether it was him or me you where waving at, and who you where :)

Got there in the end though!
