For referencing the forum??

There are some aspects of the LMC that aren't terribly admirable.

Agreed- a missed opportunity by the LMC.

Great articles by the way Neil.

What I meant was that by me referencing the (LMC) Forum the editor interpreted that I didn't think he needed to put the photos in the magazine. As said, he missed out on publishing some excellent photos.......

Huge belated thanks to Amanda, Mark, Tony, Andy and the rest of the organising team for a great weekend. Special thanks to Rob Methold for sorting my gear linkage out - twice! Made it back to Guernsey without incident and the BetaBoyz uprated idle rod is now fitted - thanks Mark. Thanks also to all the other participants for making it such a memorable event - roll on the 55th!

So is mine,.... well....if you squint hard enough
you'll see the red roof under the tree!

The best looking cars were quite rightly leading to the lawn.
and Kevin, yours is one of the best imho. It's a shame you
didn't get to the front of the 'big' shot! Next time....

Thanks Nigel, I appreciate that  8)
I wish it was as perfect as Louise Kennedy's red HPE though – luckily that one has it's steering wheel on the wrong side for me, otherwise I would have been very tempted (it was for sale).
