I hope @catsinthewelder got the tent up, we drove back through a monsoon

If you haven't, come and pitch it in my back garden and I'll get the kettle on! Or airbeds on the front room floor and the big sofa

Yes it does.

Very well in fact.  The gap between a 998 and 1275 Metro is rather large.  Nice to have some torque for a change, although I still love my beige povvo.

Cedric is stunning.  I could quite happily cross a continent in that, as Heidel did.

As always a gr9 day at the FoD.  I averaged 35.8mpg over 200 miles in the S60, so changing the plugs has made a difference.  Sorry, I'll bring something more interesting next time.

Metro

998cc 45bhp

1275cc 60 bhp

MG 1275cc 72 bhp - a 60% power increase!

Great news on the resurrected metro. What did the problem turn out to be? (Apart from HERITAGE)

[beko1987]

Change of plan from me, we can't come today.

 

TBH Amy has told me before, I just completely forgot, Uncle Reg has been moved into a care home because he is about to die, and family are driving over today to go see him, Amy is playing daycare so needs our children to have someone to shout at.

 

Sorry, have fun, much less windy today! At least the ATV can properly tear about without charlie running blindly infront of everything!

[chaseracer]

Sorry to be missing this but, as yesterday proved, I can't even drive to the Truckers Rest and back without needing the afternoon to recover!  Still, onward and upward - see y'all in a Cheshire field soon.

Sam - hope Uncle Reg is comfortable.

[richardmorris]

I’m not coming up I’m afraid. Been for a ride this morning at 7 and all my get up and go has run away and I don’t feel like driving 120 miles.

good luck for the weather.

Meh, too distant a relation for me to be that upset by it much!

How many cats can you get on scooter!

[Heidel_Kakao]

Thanks to Chris and Claire for hosting another fantastic weekend, was good to meet shiters both old and new and I got to drive an Invacar courtesy of Dez.

[catsinthewelder]

We made it back home.

Many thanks to Chris and Claire for another fantastic weekend.  Unsurprisingly the kittens have started badgering for a petrol powered toy.  It was great to catch up with everyone who came too.

[Six-cylinder]

A big thanks to everybody who came and joined us over the weekend,  it is great to see you all.

I never thought I would ever ride the Peugeot Elyseo 50cc scooter again but it has been resurrected from the dead so we ended up with the 3 resident scooters running together.

At times traffic seems so bad I thought I would need to turn it into a smart grass carriageway! 

If dad was not a failure I would not have to ride my sister bike!

Doctor Andyrew can the patient be saved!

A special thanks to phil_lihp who tirelessly tackled the faded paintwork on the Alfa Giulietta.
