So nice to be back doing these
Well....that was worth the (four year!) wait.
What a great chance to catch up with old friends, drive brilliant roads, see beautiful scenery, eat delicious food, and find out more about a legendary Scottish F1 and Indy 500 champion. A pretty much perfect weekend (even with only one properly working arm.  ), and hard to pick a highlight from a cracking three days, so I'll just leave these photos here, and let others wax lyrical instead  - and thanks to Brian and David for taking the lead in sorting out the finer details, especially when I wasn't allowed to drive - a great job, well done

Angela and I thoroughly enjoyed our selves, a big thank you to the organisers. On a negative note, Angela's cold has turned out to be covid! I tested negative last night but I'm not feeling too bright this morning. I test again this afternoon and report back. Sorry.
