Plans for this weekend?
« on: July 12, 2007, 09:34:34 am »
As we're in the middle of the racing season, what is everyone up to this weekend? 

We're off to Brands Hatch for the F3/GT meeting  ;D

Ah, well. No racing but.....

Our local village fayre is on, beginning with the "Grand parade, starting at 12.00"

However, the sign on the next lampost proclaims...."Road closed on Sunday, until 1.00 PM for Half Marathon"


Marvellous.

I'm leaving for Sweden this weekend, not sure whether there is any racing going on overthere....

This film should be played at high volume, so don't come complaining about it! And who the hell is Steve?

I'm going to finish porting the new head for the Alfa and get it down to the machine shop for new seats on saturday before raising a glass or too to our French chums on the evening. Sunday will hopefully be a day of rest for once in preparation for our new arrival on Monday- it will be the last chance for a decent nights kip for a few months I fear.

No motorsport, but with the missus working all weekend, it will mean time spent with a bit of fettling of the MGA and getting the MGF ready for the Grand Tour in August  ;D

Yeah I know- my plans to drag her down to the Great Yorkshire Show on the due date has been scuppered. There are already too many Geordies in the world. The minute I find mankey Pease Bloody Pudding in the fridge I'm off!
