Thanks for a great day Taffzee... a lot of new roads to me and the weather wasn't as bad as it could have been. The little lad loved it too, his first real twisty run and even though his little arse didn't fill the seat so he spent the day sliding around the car he told me that he didn't want the day to end...

15 hours out Zedding and 550 miles clocked, no issues to report. Delay on the M6 for an hour so roof on, stallions requested, BMW lane open for business and 24 MPG mode selected, 20 mins clawed back whilst scanning the horizon like a Japanese Sniper for the thin blue line :whistle:

Oh, that Shell Nitro+ is magic juice!

Meant to say, the only blip for the day was after fish and chips we were all expecting apple crumble, @Mrs Mint failed miserably I'm afraid to say! None, not even 1 portion to share :whistle:

Sorreee I didn't think anyone would want any. It's much better fresh so next time @Andy McDonnell you'll need to stay with us overnight and I promise I'll make one :)

Well thanks, firstly I have to say what amazing countryside what I was able to see! Moreover, @TaffZee for organising such a great day.


I must have to comment on other drivers – and was quite surprised and deserve a comment at @Mint and @Lee – both of them showed some great driving.

It was a shame about the weather and damp roads -then it could have been amazing drive out in the lovely country side.

Also like to thank my guests Andy an Ian - for taking some of these photos.
