Nor am I Russ, on the law of averages we have got to be in for a good weekend next weekend following I don't know how many lousy ones this month already...

Generally though, both Little Horwood rallies are blessed with excellent weather usually and I've come away from several DSMs sunburned..

Bump! This weekend.

Looks like we'll pop along tomorrow, probably in the boy-racer C4 to lower the tone... :twisted:

Weather is actually looking promising for tomorrow...

It was really good to see you an Mickey today Norman :D

And to see you Russ, Vince and Will as well... It was an excellent rally :D

Will, your Mandarin car is gorgeous :P

I'm going to suffer though. Despite slapping on lots of the factor 30 today I'm looking terribly lobster-like :twisted:

I seem to hav caught the sun a bit too Jim...where I was uncovered. We ought to try going nude for an all over tan next time.

At least you managed to avoid any traffic problems, the M1 was terrible due to the Silverstone GP.

All pretending to be Nico Rosberg no doubt :roll:

I took a very scenic route home.. Cyclists were the biggest problem...

Nude at DSM? To be honest the uncovered bits are bad enough right now :lol: :lol:

Fig leafs all round then next year.... :?

Great to see you Jim, Will and Vince, as well as putting a face to Norman's name!! Good rally :D

Will...your Mandarin car looked stunning as usual. It really didn't need a wash. Mine on the other hand was a mess, but I didn't care! Quite liberating that!!! :lol: many thanks for the mechanical tips.

We had a good journey back, but again hit post race traffic heading for the M40.

Until the National!

Glorious weather! 8-)

A good turnout, not huge however still a fair amount. Shame it went quite quickly, and couldn't stay too long as had to get back.

Few pictures...
