Getting better at it, but the S5 roof doesn't help my rain anxiety  .

Monday May Bank Holiday, Day 3 of the heatwave..... Drove over to "The Thomas Lord" Pub in the Meon Valley to meet my sister and brother in law for lunch and to celebrate both my and my sisters retirement. Tarka outside a wonderful English pub....  It has been a gloriously hot bank holiday, thank goodness for the A/C! We went via the A30 to Stockbridge, then the "original" last part of the A272 through Sparsholt to Winchester, crossing the Spitfire bridge to look down on a virtually stationary southbound M3, then back on the A272 to the A32 and West Meon. Lots of bikes out and a few interesting cars, including a 3 wheeled Morgan Aero. The pub is good, as is the food. This is a LINK to their website. We ate in the garden, with a lot of other people...we had booked otherwise we would not have had any food, by 2pm they were turning people away. I think they were a lot busier than expected. As we arrived at 11:40 I was able to park outside, a few minutes later a glorious Jag turned up. Here we are together!  The E Type owner had been going to Goodwood, but a binding front brake brought his plans to an end.. A wonderful day out, Tarka performed flawlessly, no heat soak through from the engine to the cockpit (unlike the Roadster) and the coolant temperature stayed on 82C. PS: Photos taken on new iPhone 8, much better than the old 5C!!

Those are fun roads and great scenery.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

That looks very nice Peter, enjoy your re——ment! No Morgan currently at home so can’t drive an Aero today. However, we did drive the Plus 8’s up to Malvern on Friday, as they are being transported to Milan as the first part of our Italian tour!  🇮🇹

PS: Photos taken on new iPhone 8, much better than the old 5C!! You could have got it all on - cut its back off! Anyway, that bronze colour looks great in the sun - this is why we have em. Just cruising locally - I love the Aero - it's got it's flaws, but it's a work of modern art and every body else seems to like it too. So glad I bought it. Going to the Isle of Man Wednesday, but taking the Plus 4 - dodgy weather and dodgy roof on the Aero
