The forecast is not looking too bright for the coming week either.

Weather total cr*p at present.

It isn't looking good sadly and has probably put the kibosh on me riding down on the bike as I'm travelling down with my partner. I can't really expect her to put up with getting soaked ( or can I  >:D )

Sure you can! ;)

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

Oh well I don't care if it snows- the Alfa now has functioning brakes and is on song. She's going back to Le Sarthe for the first time in 33 years!
 Raise a glass to her good fortune guys, we set sail on the rising tide!

Good for her!

Bon Voyage!  And good luck, although I hope that you don't need it....
Of course I buy green cars, my Aston is green, my MGB is green, my Disco Sport is green,  oh, that's not what you meant by green?

Tent pitched, sun switched on.  Truly stonking view of the circuit from the tent door.  Perfik. :)

Whatever you do, don't touch that switch!

Gotta work today but car is all ready to go, on Seafrance at crack of Sparrows fart tomorrow morning.

Off again this morning - looks like the pattern for the whole weekend - off and then on again, I mean.

The switch was off when we arrived pissing rain and cold. Beer and wine helping situation.

I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

Well so far so good, reporting live from Stonehenge on route to Poole. 378 miles under our belts and apart from a loose wire that stopped us on the M1 the old Alfa is running like a dream. To borrow Andy's phrase - she's a f**k*n beauty! 
 Time for a beer and a few hours kip.
 See you all tomorrow.
