Set off for Totnes early to catch my Indy to see if he could get us an MOT for the 14th.
On the way I picked up some cakes for the crew and whilst sitting in the Plus 8 our friendly Dartington member showed up which was good.

At the garage they had a cancellation for a 1200 slot today so turned into the bay took my seat whilst everything was checked over and she has a clean sheet with no advisories.

On the way back just having a coffee and bun at Dartington Hall when a really friendly young lad approaches with a gorgeous dog (Charlie) turns out he is Dartingtons Son..

What a lovely morning...

Small world is South Hams Richard,

Hopefully see you at Totnes Classic car show (Staverton) next month.

Ps. Had a senior moment this morning as our cars are similar from a distance and you parked where I usually do even though I knew I had left it at home.

My Son probably did a double take as well.

Totnes is great as is Darlington. We are off to Dennington for a GEG run tomorrow.

Dartington. Bloody predictive text. Mind you Darlington gave the steam engine a boost

Sorry to rat-hole with a bit of a grump, but why do all these AI-generated adverts look the same?

Everywhere now I'm seeing what looks like posters for Country & Western evenings. I'm sure this is a lovely event, but I do miss the days when people put a bit of effort into their promotions.
