That's a cracking photograph Chris.  I collected my 4/4 from Berrybrook yesterday. It had been at the bodyshop to have a couple of areas of corrosion sorted. These were under the passenger door and running back to the rear wheel arch. Lovely drive home in the sunshine.

The clarity of a northerly airstream, the contours of Scotland and the curves of a Morgan make it easy!

Witney, Cirencester,Stroud (scenic route) and back. Put car into garage and before I closed the door it started raining. Doesn't get better than that! Saw two other Trads on the road.

Great few hours out & about earlier..! Went out with Mrs SBM to do some gravestone searching for her family tree & found seven names in the churchyard. Weather was so nice, so after a walk around past her nan's old cottage we headed off for a coffee & scone at a jolly nice canalside cafe. Home for an hour & the wet stuff started, but timed it just right for a few hours in the spring sunshine. Lovely..!

A 30 mile bumble across Charnwood Forest to Stoneywell Cottage.
Nice to blow the cobwebs away.
On our way home, we got to a dip in the road that was flooded. Not a road I know so I slowed down and moved to the crown of the road. The car behind overtook at that point. Had he flooded his engine, I would have left him there!

I had a very pleasant drive over the South Downs to Goodwood to watch the penultimate day of testing for the forthcoming Members Meeting.
One short delay when the rear silencer sheered off and dragged along the ground, luckily I was wearing gloves so removing it completely wasn't too painful. Interestingly the car doesn't appear to be any noisier without it!
A very warm and sunny drive.

Yes. Backed out of the garage and had a spring polish. Left the car gleaming in the sun ...and later drove it back in the garage. Does that count!!!
