I reached Frankley Services on the M5 and waited till 8 am.
The rain had already started !!!
Got to Ragley at 8.30am and there were only these two capris waiting for their mates...still raining.
Got the banner and bunting up.
Mathew Semple was first to arrive in his A reg Maestro 1600
followed not long after by Mandys Turbo
and Mandys dads very tidy 1.3 Auto.
The exhibitors field was ominously bare !
I sat at the back in the comfort of the Tourneo.
Mandys Cafe was open for business.
9.30 am and still raining.
Not long after Russ arrived, shockingly early for him.
Followed by ever present Jim with Luke on board as well.
And to complete the line up.. Matts Turbo.
The reason Russ was early...his sister drove
All in all a good turn out for us but a lousy day with many car clubs not turning up at all.
Pray for sunshine for Peterborough.

Show was a washout due to weather but meeting you all really made it for me. Highlight of the day was going in convoy to nearby Moat House Pub for a mini-Metro meet and a pint! The same pub also has a classic car meet every 3rd Thursday of the month I'm told....
