What's the biscuit of choice ......digestive

What I love about FoTU: - my brother is on his way over to my house right now in his minty TR6, which will be intentionally left on the drive so we can go to the car show in a ropey old low spec diesel Sierra.

It's like I've woken up in the 80s!

Not sure we're going to make Colsterworth in time before the gates open, but hopefully see folk at some point! (Assuming rainbow coloured puddles are kept to a minimum...)

[N19]

Off we go!

Got in the car to no working blower... Fortunately a dicky fuse replaced.

Just getting ready for the off,  meeting up with brodders in his mighty Orion

Cool, didn't realise he still had that.

Bit posh but you can still pick them up for under a grand, which makes it worthy in my book. Hopefully the weathers better down south!

What's left of the paint has been cleaned, Grimsthorpe is 2 hours away. Let's begin!

Have a great time everyone. Sadly I have a wedding to attend, so sitting this year out.

[Sunny Jim]

At Colsterworth, time to walk the dog and grab some brekkie.

[Schaefft]

Still having breakfast. What's the queue looking like?

[wesacosa]

hmm maybe shorts, factor 50 and shades were the wrong things to pack yesterday 

[Sunny Jim]

Are folks still coming to Colsterworth? I'm sitting here billy no mates!

[wesacosa]

roads ok up to the entrance but starting to build up once in grounds 

[grogee]

Lovely images so far, people. Keep them coming. Safe travels and may your alternator belts remain contiguous, and your coolant stay inside of the cooling system.

No I skipped it. Was out of bed late. Though not much point as there's the predictable traffic. 

They really need a venue which isn't surrounded by little country roads. Second year of this.

The queue 

Must only be a few cars ahead of me 🤣

[chaseracer]

I was going to wish all of you CHODSPEED, but that seems unlikely now...

[Soundwave]

I appear to have landed next to the dieseL Sierra... 

 

 

[Sunny Jim]

Queue victim 

[wesacosa]

if its any consolation it much less chaotic once you on site so hopefully guys won't be long getting in 

[Back_For_More]

Inspecting project ships for a live aboard conversion so can't make this.... I need to drag the rotters back from EU land for next year as well as purchase more unexceptional fodder 

Have a blast today fellas - I look forward to photo catch up this evening 

[N19]

Was very smooth and no queue when I got in. Three checkpoints in use. Long drive to the house and parking area. But smoother than last year by far. 

4G connection non existent in the parking area!

 

[catsinthewelder]

Sorry lads I won't be there, MOT on morning of show wasn't a good idea.

[mat_the_cat]

No overheating yet...

[wuvvum]

Queue doesn't appear to be going anywhere at the moment...
