Excellent!
Am really looking forward to the TT this year.
My Great uncle entered for many years in the early 30s as a private entrant on a 350cc Norton the "Junior" his best placing was 4th so he did really well.
He had a new bike every year - so he must have been quite wealthy!!A Manchester Butcher by trade.
All his records are in the TT archives.

A trip out for lunch with SWMBO to the Grove Lock Pub near Leighton Buzzard. Saw a green trad going towards Amersham on the A413 near Great Missenden.
The pub food & service has really deteriorated unfortunately, but the drive was great. I had washed & waxed the cat yesterday including cleaning the leather. A bird pooped on my seat whilst we were eating but en that didn't affect the grin.

A Honda Izy... See Steve T's "Have you driven your AH today...? Yes to the Fusion. Little car is growing on me. Not had any knee pain for weeks (at least not entering/exiting a car  ). Might change that - hoping I can blag a ride up Prescott in a Muira this Saturday

Just returned from a splendid day out to Blenheim Palace with 50+ other including 10 Swiss.
I know that Robin Hill is not on TM but a big shout out to all those TMers who were there.

Lovely return trip to Buckfasleigh Abbey and return, the river Dart is looking pretty low for this time of year. Passed 5 MX5's topless these are getting very popular down here amongst the senior citizens, probably a pre emptive strike on the "dementia tax"  . Just thinking out loud really but I guess everyone will go for equity release and stuff her plans up. That or transfer to the kids earlier than anticipated.

Currently at Haynes Museum. Good drive. Lovely Vauxhall 30/98 (I think) in their car park.
