Thanks for your hospitality @Six-cylinder - we plan to stay for Monday night seeing as we can only make it down for the early hours of Sunday morning. Will try not to wake anyone, or maybe you will all be party animals and still awake!

I've got someone coming round on Saturday at lunchtime (and I want him to come as he's collecting 9 vacuums I've had for him since pre covid and I want the space back!) so we might make a day of it Sunday if that's OK?

Another busy car day with the help of @Slowsilver

I took the exhaust that finally arrived for my Seicento to my favourite garage using the Trevi as daily transport.

Then I took the Mondeo taxi to collect the 308 GT4! Service with new cambelt and the air filter  box recrackle finished.

Next was the BMW E3, the fuel tank was refitted and the car starts with no leaks. I did not have enough fuel to risk a road test so we will do that over the weekend.

The Toledo is now on charge getting ready for a Triumph meeting on Tuesday.

I won't be able to make it to the FOD this weekend as I'm going away which is a bit of a shame as I do have some wood in the garage that would be useful for the shelving that you're after.

Thank you very much for another ace weekend @Mrs6C and @Six-cylinder.  It was ace to catch up with everyone even if I was the most disorganised person in the world.

Always great to start the day with a geometric Scottish breakfast and a go in the Toledo was lovely.

Made it home in one piece despite driving though Bridgnorth.  Lots of interesting things on the motorway presumably on the way back from Goodwood.  Had an ace moment where a MK1 Transit beavertail with a Triumph 2000 racing car on the back and a early 80s 300ZX were passing me and an Edsel with a 60s caravan, we were almost outnumbering the modern cars.
