Rubbing salt in the wounds....

I've just got back in from being away on work for the past few days. As mentioned to some on here, I can't make Newark as I've got other commitments I can't get out of.

Aside from everyone on here talking about it of recent (and the pictures that are sure to follow shortly after), I had to drive from my base in Essex to North Yorkshire yesterday, and then Leeds today. Past plenty of signs for Newark, both directions.

Bit of a kick in the teeth if you ask me!

If it's any consolation, I've just finished sorting out all the tent/chairs/BBQ/food/drink tonight and am looking forward to a nice social weekend immensely...

It's such a waste having to winder around a huge show site looking at loads of nice cars , picking up a few bargains from the stalls , then relaxing round the barby with a drink or two - when I could have been in the shed making car stuff all weekend





Its cuz I is blond , innit
