glad everyone had a good time despite the weather , I agree the museum is a bit raggerty in places ( it turns out it started as a private collection and many cars there are still privately owned by ordainary members of the public ) but obviously the two guys running it are struggling and as Rupert said its nice to see real cars we can associate with rather than immaculate vehicles that have never seen a salty road ( mind you I did think Rupert was going to have an accident with his excitement at seeing the Aston Martin Lagonda ) thanks to all those who made the effort , especially those who travelled great distances to be there and I am especially glad all got home safely and without incident ( except Foggy and errr me !!!. ) Special thanks must go to Vicky for keeping Jemma company Just one question , Where do we go next time ?
