Hi
In Jan '18 it went to Swanage from the SVR, could it be going back to SVR?
What direction was it going?

I spotted it on the A303 near Yeovil, it was coming from the Exeter/Taunton direction so I presumed it was coming from the West Somerset Railway.

| I was standing in the shade in a back street of a little French town near Limoges when a slightly unusual noise made me look around. Coming up the road was a Citroen SM, a car I could never imagine anyone wanting to own, including me. I quite like the DS, without ever having the urge to own one but the SM reminds me of the strange business of the French being hooked on comic strips. |

I can't quite believe what I am reading. To my eyes the SM is quite the most elegant and fabulous creation. It's complexity is probably the only reason I would give for not wanting to own one but that is because of my inadequacies rather than a criticism of the car.
You are of course perfectly entitled to reject the S.M. and I respect your opinion; I just beg to differ.  |

Last night on my way home I followed 2 Morris 1000 vans heading up the A303, this morning on my way to work I passed another Morris 1000 van heading in the same direction. The were heading up past Yeovil in the towards Sparkford/Wincanton direction or up into Wiltshire?

Many, many TVRs passed through the village this morning, every model from Tuscans to Cerberas.
Quite an impressive sight.
