It wasn't a complaint They were more head-buts anyway I'm a dog fan, and I made a couple more friends... I've told them to sit under your petrol tank to prevent you changing it if they spot you not resting your foot...

I had a great day yesterday there was some really nice cars parked with the club and great people as always was good to see old faces and meet new ones. very happy with my goodies from mr batchelor once again the 420 never missed a beat look forward to seeing everyone at the next one

Great show as always. Thanks to Paul for sorting out the passes.

Good to give the 416 blast up and down then M1/M69/A46/M40.

As others have said about their cars, mine performed faultlessly too.

[Mr Teddy Bear]

Nice to meet up with everybody again and the weather turned hot.

and the weather turned hot.

And I discovered that yet another of our cars has non-functioning aircon

and the weather turned hot.

I don't use my air con because I've noticed the engine revs run higher and lower and higher and lower - seems to switch maybe every 10 secs.

When driving you can feel the difference in pulling when driving.

Is this normal?

[1234dist]

more effort required to turn the aircon compressor so yeah, normal.

[Paul_1978_yorks]

Glad that it's normal - might start using it a bit more then! Found it a bit offputting at first - not the air con, but the engine behaviour when using it. Only very subtle, but noticeable.

[GTiJohn]

Have to say, what a great turn out and good atmosphere on Sunday.

Great to talk to so many people

[1234dist]

and to those that didn't arrive, i hope you had a good excuse

i had a damaged foot, advisories that i shouldn't drive due to the quantity of drugs required to make it bearable, the inability to wear footwear due to swelling but i still managed to do the 260 mile round trip with family in tow to get there (even if i was in a 75 )
