Oh yes, we got back ok, despite being stuck at portsmouth for an hour by the main door being stuck shut! we ended up getting herded down a ramp onto the lorry deck after all the lorries left.
it was a good trip. i never got to meet you i don't think MarkyB. It was only when i got back that i remembered you were going!

I clocked up 964 miles round trip. My poor starting that developed during the week, and is now very bad, has continued and now i've rebuilt the whole ignition system! Looks like the head will be coming off this weekend
got to get it ready for the national and MOTUK!

Got back safe & sound, great trip, 1300 miles in 2 weeks, had a few days on the Normandy landing beaches, stacks of WW2 military vehicles, Jeeps galore. Good to meet old friends again on the trip.

Mostly for Roys entertainment, here is a video of some of "what I did on my holiday" after MOT had finished:

It was a most enjoyable thing to do even on a rather wet day, the smell took me back a lot of years to when there were steam trains on British Rail.
