You do have to wonder how the germans got the styling just right? not once but twice!

The earlier models classic shapes and the later car giving a nod to those highlights and iconic styling. 

Add to that comfort, and an air of class.

Stunning. .

 

Mercs look alright aswell.

30 day ban obvs.

It was a surprise to me how much I have liked this car. A random purchase because it was there and I wanted to give it a try has been a big success.

I’ve booked Buckingham for Friday and Saturday, the expense of the Saturday night only made up for by the extreme cheapness of the Friday! Averages out at £60 per night for a family room (as I think we’re all coming)… not too horrific.

Is anyone about tonight? Sky only looks moderately charcoal-like.

While I remember, can I ask to be included for the 21/22 August weekend please?

Looks a bit like a prayer meeting. Bless you all.

I'm now thinking it would have been a good idea to have erected my tent before:

a) the rain

b) darkness

c) a bottle of wine

Oh well, WCPGW?

[High Jetter]

Sleep in the car, after more wine.

Oh God.

[mat_the_cat]

I've done that before, many times over the years. Main problem being that I've run out!

Anyway, (inner) tent is now up, and I think I'm calling it a day. It seems to have stopped raining, and I CBA. 'Night!

Today after 5 years we decided to layout the temporary road way we have to store cars in the field on. We had to move the cars out, cut the grass and then the real fun and games began.

Thanks so much to Talbot and Crackers for all there hard labour.

It was good to see the boys working hard, it was best that way!
