Certainly was... very pleasant to return from a weekend away and find.
Inspired me to post a few piccies for your breakfast time.
The first pic with the Mini and the Cortina.... the Mini is driven by Ted Brewster , who makes our Bauble a young 'un. Ted is 86 years young and still loads his car up on the trailer and he and wife Margaret are at all the major meetings. He does all the maintenance himself still. He can still do well in class (2nd over the weekend after being the fastest Mini qualifier). Our club had its 40th anniversary this year and Ted was a founder member, but started racing Minis back in the early sixties. Now he has his son and Grandson all racing at PI over the weekend. He aimed to retire from driving at 70, but Margaret decided quickly he was a pain in the A$$ when he wasnt playing with his car and unbeknown to send entered him for a race. He tried to retire again at 80... that lasted 3 months.
