Mmm, how come he managed to sneak in?

How come the bloke in the middle doesn't have a Lockdown Hairdo?

Thanks for the help with the attachment advice.

Thanks for the picture. When you and I were young, Maggie.

I think this day out was his very first day with the car, IIRC it had no stickers/sponsors. But it was a long time ago.

I think he's explaining how much he had cut off - or was it just the length of the kwossant?

It was a genuine period ECU as fitted by Lotus in 1959.

Chapman was always so far ahead of the times ...

Great to see you guys in good health. I've been attempting to transfer VHS stuff to DVD and one of the events filmed (actually Kev did most of it on that occasion) was a June 2000 meeting at Lydden, and what should pop up a couple of times but a purple Anglebox.

[delta]

I shall look forward to seeing those John, every time I meet up with Gordon I pester him about getting the Anglia back on track.
Sad day today as its anniversary of the Escort being stolen.I remember the sinking feeling I had coming into the yard and noticing vans and trailers moved around not how I had left them. I still hang on on in hope. My two mates Peter and Paul came by to cheer me up." well I think they were after their breakfast "

[Peter Mallett]

Yes a year already. I don't suppose there's news of The Brode's stolen Escort either.

I'm enjoying retirement in my dotage with this younger woman at the moment
Actually this is one of my favourite pictures from my past amongst the track action ones.

Sad day for me at Brands yesterday - the test was just to be sure everything worked before the car goes on sale as it's been unused for some time while we waited for a new HTP. I'd forgotten how brilliant it was to drive, which will make it all the harder to part with. Had some great times with that car

Brodie came by for a cuppa today .He has had three anonymous phone calls and the police have been investigating . There was a Sierra Cosworth stolen a couple of years back from our area and this car has surfaced . Still hope .

Yep. I was listening to Craig Charles Funk'n'Soul podcast on the way to work. Good music, set me up for a great day.

I spotted these garden gates while out on my bike earlier this morning - further investigation required!

[Peter Mallett]

Good spot!

[Peter Mallett]

Since it's the revised and cancelled Scramble (now on for Mid October) I think I'll take the MG out for a run.

[S griffin]

Good luck with it, what are the roads like where you live? Will the MG be able to take it?

[GORDON STREETER]

On a serious note, there are massive fires all around our area in Mojacar. The last time about 10 years ago a lot of people were evacuated and had to sleep on the beach. The problem is that it's tinder dry down there at the moment with strong winds. Several friends have posted pictures on the Mojacar forum tonight but communications are not the best as probably some of the lines and towers are damaged. We were lucky where our place is the last time however it's a bit of a worry. This is a picture from tonight (Sunday)

I did a double take at the sight of this RR...on dolly wheels...
