I followed an extremely delectable black early Series 11 Saloon through Southampton today on my way to the docks.

I saw a lovely pre-reg Black saloon pulling up out side the gate right in front of the two guardsman at the corner of St James and Pall Mall today.

Rather amusing in all.

Ann was certainly a member about 10 years ago when I lived in Cardiff.. but she lived in the US at the time and came to meetings when she popped over to see her mum

No. Ann and Jim are no longer members. Although they live in Cardiff they get to a lot of local shows but I invited them to our branch run last month, but they were having "Minor" problems. :roll:

Saw loads yesterday..

Grey saloon parked on a drive in East Hagborne and then tried to catch up with a Brown saloon on the way in to Hungerford, but couldn't quite make it.

Then made fools of ourselves waving madly at another saloon on the A33 near Tadley. so busy busy busy..

oh, and thanks to the couple who waved so enthusiastically from their VW Polo outside B&Q today - really cheered me up as I was hot and bothered and Trev was misbehaving.

I forgot this little forum item. I was so surprised to see a Trafalgar Blue Traveller parked in the kerb angle to a bus-stop bay by the pet charity shop in Ruislip Manor, Middlesex about two weeks or so ago that I didn't catch its registration, sorry! It was one of the very sunny days, thus brightened even more... ;-)! Does this show that no-one in the country lives very far from a Morris 1000?

Yes, I believe the shiny green van belongs to Gill (Cam's wife). :)
