Its just like being in Le Mans here just now. I've lit the bbq,had a few cans of cider and its started raining  I know this one, because the minute I stopped eating, it stopped raining. Still the barbeque works well under a golf umbrella. we really do need a dry year It would be nice, and overdue. Wasnt it dry last year? I dont remember it raining at all!!!! (Although that might be cos I was in the shelter of my cow shed!!)  Squally and showers first half of the week, I'm surprised your cow shed didn't blow away.  |

Squally? That's a bit of an understatement.

Weds was awful last year. I drove 400 miles to LM and reckon that it rained for 399 miles of the journey. Brief respite on arriving, then rain again, so we retired in to Werner's pavilion & drank beer. Not all bad  |

F Part timer! LOL - a good move in the circumstances! It must be my naturally sunny disposition that means I dont remember driving down in the rain, tho it seems I must have done! (either that or short term memory problems....) F |

Hmmmm... rain, Now there's an interesting thought... Do i leave the Ashley hardtop on the Midget, Put the soft top back on, or go all hardcore and leave both off for that full 'Drowned rat in a roadster' look |

Still, driving down the N138 in an open top British sports car (Albeit a rubber bumper model) does have it's attractions...

Option C with option B as fallback simples Tonneau is fine for all the other times anyway you will all have a hot dry year with mild balmy breezes (I do wish I was coming... BUT NO, I have to be strong...) |

This is true... Soft top it is then... And Perdu, if you find that strength slipping away, there's a spare seat in the Midget |

Ah if only 'twere so easy I decided to miss a year for lots of reasons, not just fiscal ones All these years and the old dear hasn't murmured about me swanning off, but I had an attack of " Oh blimey it isnt fair-itis" and offered to her that I'd miss this one and go again next year I already have offers from Toby Anscombe and MGMark to occupy the co-pilot seat if situations change, so thanks but... Dont fret Andy, Lara will be on hand next year if she is needed I'll be happy if you guys have a good un ( honest...  ) |
