Lovely day, great day out - Good to see the Hawley family in good spirits - Andys littlun is not so little any more! Photos above are my little boy, with his grandad on the wheel of Concorde, and Grandad showing Zak around some of the more exotic machinery....which he was very interested in....I think.... ;)

There were some cars too.....

Good to see you Maggi and Bastian Andy, always great to pay homage to the previous 2 generations who worked there. It was a great day.

It was a pleasure Phil, the Sausage Baps were resauringly exspensive and very good (especially as Brad paid!). I'll leave the photos to Brad. It was amusing to see the folk scatter when the Top Fueler Barked.

Looks like a good time was had by all. Thanks Brad for the pictures. Ian holding Zak makes you look younger ;D

When they were doing the laps on the Mercedes track did you see the Fiat lockup big time nearly rear ending the Lambo safety car :o he got a right ticking off from the Marshals ;D
Nice to see a real F1 car at speed :-*

Yes, those little Fiats were wacky and they were Driven by really big blokes, or so it seemed, did you see the Black one spin out. The Driver and Crew of the Bennetton's were very friendly in the pits. Shame the Schumacher/ Pattrase car could not run.

No I must have missed that one ???
What was wrong with Schumacher car I saw it parked over the far side near the hotel but it didn't come out to play :(
I felt sorry for the people on the skid pan before the cars doing laps came out, they must have felt right plonkers with so many people watching ;D
