Our club (Lowestoft classic vehicle club) had a little run out today ending up at the Park Hill Hotel in Lowestoft (our sort of unofficial home base) for an Easter egg hunt around the grounds. Not a large turn out only 11 classics as many chose to bring grand kids so came in their moderns with seat belts fitted but some nice cars all the same and a pleasant afternoon was had by all
A selection of cars outside the hotel

A nice freshly restored mini (first outing I think) and its half brother an Elf

Prewar ford and Hillman

Austin Healey and MGB

and Lily my P3 which went sick on the way home by starting to leak petrol from its carb (just what I need another thing to sort out)

I'm sure you know but if you don't Lily has a Southport registration "FY"

Interestingly, my Car is EX 8684 and I think that was Great Yarmouth ?

I remember now you posting on the Southport Forum and the discussion.
I live in Birkdale which is a suburb / village of southport

If you know the address of the garage in Birkdale and you can't snap a photo off Google, let me know and I'll go and take one for you.
