Well, we are back from the BP holiday and have had a chance to chill out a little and unpack.
The holiday was an event of mixed feelings. It was a great week with fantastic weather and great friends, but as you know now, one of our great friends passed away in his sleep on Tuesday morning.
There are threads on this so I won't dwell on it too much here, but I will say that we missed you Larry, and Johann, and the red MGF.
We arrived on the Saturday after a long drive (over 8 hours for some) and we were greeted with the accommodation that we would spend the next week in.
It was a large house with pretty huge gardens and a stream running through it.
And a huge projector telly.
The area and the weather were fantastic for top down driving and we soon found our favourite spot. A great twisty mountain road with an ice cream van in the middle of nowhere.
Even the HGF sniffer dog enjoyed it.
We did a few run outs during the week, with the big one being Pendine Sands http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendine_Sands which has a well known history for racing and speed trials.
We visited the museum of speed.
and we managed to negotiate getting the MGs on the beach.
We even managed to visit the holy land.
I took some video which I have to process yet and will post the links when ready.
