We went along to the Breakfast Club for the first time today. It was a bit chilly driving through the mist to Midhurst, but by the time we approached the circuit it was warming up in brilliant sunshine.
We ended up in the paddock behind the grid and enjoyed a really good breakfast in the Jackie Stewart pavilion. Then we wandered round the paddock and along the course looking at a lot of Austin Healeys, and Triumphs, almost as many E-types and a few Mercedes, one of which my wife wanted to take home, with or without me, I thought.
The grid was mostly reserved for Aston Martins and Hackett had brought along a few new ones as well, but there was a paucity of Morgans. Counting our own I don’t think that there were more than half a dozen. Does this reflect relative production numbers, or was there something better going on? In any event, we had a very enjoyable morning, although it may turn out expensive - my wife wants to go flying from the aerodrome!
