very frustrating, even Sam Lander who is working on it can't understand because it was running amazingly. Just need it sorting now though once and for all.... got to love old cars!

At Margaret's waiting for the beautiful Tom to get ready. Stop of near Birmingham this evening. Unfortunately, Raymond and Fay have had to cancel.

See you all tomorrow.

There's been a couple of casualties today - they'll still attend but in alternative vehicles all being well!

Things haven't gone to plan. All was well until just after we left Tebay services. The 356 lost power and died at the side of the road. Recovery called and as I was of little help I continued to our hotel.

The plan for Margaret and Tom is a very early start and they will be at C&M tomorrow morning.

See you there tomorrow Brendan, looking forward to catching up. Great that margaret has a plan B too!

I’ve just bitten the bullet and swapped out my wevo shifter for a stock one. The wevo was just too hard work with the tight new gearbox, and i must say the stock one seems super light in comparison. Almost as if it was designed for it!

Made it to the Cotswolds after an awful drive down .. the M1 is just shite. 3.5hr drive took 5 hours.

Anyway, due to shitty uk motorway network managed to get to the NT property my wife wanted to visit 10mins before last entry .

Found a nice Cotswolds pub for a some food and a cider and now at the hotel unwinding .

Just back from spending ~ 3 hrs in A&E after dropping a load of roofing tiles on my foot.

Surprisingly, there was nothing broken (especially since I was wearing lightweight trainers) but my foot is a lovely shade of purple - & very sore …

Unfortunately this means I won't now be at C&M tomorrow or Shelsley on Sunday.

Hope everyone has a good time.

That’s a shame Andy

You were lucky Andy. I did the same at the end of last year only it was the A frame of my trailer that dropped. Broke four toes and put two metatarsal bones in a vertical position when they should be horizontal. Still not right yet but I can still operate a clutch which is the main thing.

Get well soon.

Regards
Mike
