Went down the yard to do some clearing and saw in another unit a 1974 ERF tractor unit being worked on. The chaps said they are getting ready for a road run tomorrow.

Good spots there Mike, does the pickup have those weird LED lamps fitted?

A pale metallic green Imp went by this morning, plus dad's Minor appeared here yesterday

I think it did, it went past before I got much of a look at it.

Seeing the Traveller there Rick reminded me of a car we noticed on Saturday. We were out for the usual stroll with the dog as a family wandering down a local lane (as we have done many times before) but this time in the last house's drive we notice under a sheet the unmistakable lines of a Morris Traveller.

It hasn't been there before and we would have noticed it so presume its a new purchase. As to condition its not known as its under a sheet but its looks all in one piece.

Out in little Dodge earlier, we spotted an Austin 1100 and a Mini van (waves were exchanged), while just now a pale yellow E-Type fhc went by.

A Scammell, an AEC, an Atkinson and a.n.other lorry just drove by in convoy, maybe there's something on today?

I haven't heard of anything, Alderford Lake was yesterday, but I've not really been looking.

I saw a Mk1 Golf Cabriolet and a Sierra Sapphire Cosworth (possibly the one I saw a few weeks back) this morning.

Also saw a couple of ERFs, it seems there was an informal lorry gathering not far from here today.

Doesn't that bottom pic make a nonsense of calling the car on the left a MINI?

Passed an old chap taking a lovely Jaguar XK out for a drive tonight, not sure of the exact model though.
It was not painted, just aluminium panels by the looks of it. Very nice it was too.

A very tidy 1750 automatic Vogue appeared at the end of our road today.
