We took full advantage of the gorgeous day here in Devon. Drove along the coast with a stop at Powderham Castle, on the way back, for coffee and buns. Stanley attracted a lot of positive comments when we stopped; but needed a quick wash off when we got home, as there is still some salt on the roads. Also paid quick visit to Berrybrook; they have (not for sale) a lovely Matchless engined M3W in the showroom.

95 miles just tootling about checking for rattles - lost an AMG on Zigzag Hill - the mogs tail was wagging a bit! Had to behave on the way down did not want to be bitten by the kerbage on those steep tight corners.
If you see a small Black 11 on the exit to the A303 at Wiloughby Hedge services that may have been me!

Had a great run through the North Cotswolds to Stowe for lunch.
Saw a nice maroon +4 in the square and we waved at each other ...anyone on here? Not me (!) but had a lovely run to Kidderminster and back for a trip with  on the Severn Valley Railway {they are 50 years old this year!!). Lovely trip up and two pints at the Railway Arms at Bridgnorth (lovely pub/setting - we've GOT to do a TMers meet there surely??) and a brisk walk from Hampton Loade to Highley to walk off "lunch". So warm today. Hello Spring  Cheers

Well I managed to drive my Panda 50 yards up and down the drive this afternoon ....it might not have been the Morgan but it felt an achievement! Still not allowed out on the open road for a few more weeks though

Still not allowed out on the open road for a few more weeks though Someone needs to take you to Prescott so you can explore the envelope with the Panda... You might set a record...I doubt that anyone has taken a Panda up the hill..

You might set a record...I doubt that anyone has taken a Panda up the hill.. Oh yes they have (not me BTW!) We have even had a young lady in a Rav4 on one drivers' school...  Good stuff J  Good gathering of the local section of MTWC yesterday. Even managed a first mowing of the lawn on return home. Mower started 3rd pull - usually I have to take the plug out and warm it for the first season start-up...
