Also it appears my 27 year old, petrol, automatic Volvo 740 is more economical on the motorway than a lot of modern diesels...

 

40 on the nose!!!

[dollywobbler]

Sorry to be missing this. Have fun chaps.

[AnthonyG]

Will be at the cafe at about 10. It is the usual one with the dead Renault guarding the front door?

That's the one. Watching little bags of power being thrown between cars at no extra cost.

[chaseracer]

No, that's my job!

[davidfowler2000]

Just rocked up outside the house at 23:11. Apologies to those folk I didn't get say cheerio to at the museum due to being in the toilet.

 

In Other News...

Topped up at Corley services before heading home then filled up at Larkhall's Shell petrol station before doing the last few miles to the house.

Another fuel economy record for the Volvo : 40.9mpg!!!

[hairnet]

golf too embarrassing?

[Six-cylinder]

My favourite shot is the Vulcan peering over the hedge to see what has arrived!

[Inspector Morose]

Whilst not feeling that well, I popped along with the remaining associated massivs to the Air museum where various plane shaped objects were spotted.

 

Autoshite assemble.

 

Apparently this plane was only half okay.

 

Big plane and apparently can carry several minis.

 

Bit of plane. Hang on, what's that to the left?

 

Lets have a closer look.

 

And the back?

Oh.

 

Bloody old jet engine.

 

Bloody old jet plane.

 

Up and down jet.

 

Contra-rotations.

 

Autoshite airways inc.

 

Smol plane.

 

Gratuitous Beaver shot

How the hell is a bader geared brick on wheels managing 40 mpg? I think even Ovlovlov themselves would be surprised at that figure, well driven DF of SVM Heavy Industries™
