Went along to Silverstone on Sunday to watch the World Series by Renault. As it’s a free day entry wise it was pretty good, been a while since I’ve been there! We had a really good but long day, got some decent photo’s and also sunburn…

AGBO Rally, Weston Park!

Decided to take a trip to Weston Park yesterday and watch the AGBO Rally. Nice old fashioned tarmac rally, with loads of old fashioned rear wheel drive rally cars (think Escort MK2′s). Couple of newer cars, but nice to be able to wander freely around and take a look. Good day, nice weather, enjoyed it!

Sir Nigel Gresley again!

Trying to see this A4 again….this time should manage it, just not 100% certain where!

*Update* We managed a good watck/look/see at Clay Mills junction, just outside Burton-on-Trent.
Due to some issues (the hose wouldn’t reach to water her…lol) she was there for a good hour and a half, got some great pictures!
