Be good to see you both again Jeanette and Dave. Hope all is well Mike and Trish.

We are still at Donington having watched the Formula E Test Day. It was like reall life size scalectrix sounds and all. We are on Donington Park Farmhouse camp site which is very beautiful and clean with outstanding views and a very short walk to the entrance of the track. It does have a an airport nearby but Chris and I don't mind the sound of the planes the noise is not sudden like the RAF harriers and jets we get up at ours.

See you on Friday

Hope you all have a great weekend. I'm typing this from Adrian's in Bury where he (total star) is fitting a replacement rear heater pipe at zero notice after the old one sprung a leak this morning. I limped over here, stopping to top up with coolant on the way. Luckily he had one of these rare parts in stock from someone else's cancelled order. Needless to say, my nerves are frayed! Wish I could make Allithwaite for some recuperation ha ha.

Looks like it is going to be a cosy week end. I'm all ready to go. Weather is looking a bit like a repeat of Dent. Lovely on Friday, spots of sunshine and rain for Saturday & Sunday with heavy rain to chase us back home on Monday.

Congratulations Karen and Vicky xx Pleased to hear Babe was delivered safely.

We did have a good weekend with a lot of laughs. I did wonder if my Chris was going to go off into the sunset with Debs' Dave though :shock:

Good to Dave and Jeanette looking well and of course our Tony :D

Thanks to Jo and Chris for a fantastic weekend, the weather couldn't have been better. Great company.
We had a fantastic day at Carmel Races, (didn't lose too much) highly recommended.
See you all soon.

PS Hearty congratulations to Grandma Karen.
