It'll be raining by Saturday
Sounds like Top Gear trip in the americas.Went to the shops. Was going to fry scalp. Closed lid, tried air con. No air con. Went to mechanic. Lack of gas not the problem. 12 hour motorway drive on Sat. Hope it cools down
Not sure about mini Road Trip - I just popped out for for some mid week Fish & Chips with friends...!!

But first was a visit to "Ness Point" in Lowestoft to check out the finish to the Race the Sun..

Next stop was "Gorleston-on-Sea" for the important part of the day - Which was almost a fail when the only Fish & Chip shop ran out of chips..!! Lucky a delivery of chips arrived just in time to save the day
Then after an 99 Ice Cream break, had an AMG cruise through "Great Yarmouth"

Parting our own ways, I headed in land to "Bury St Edmonds to pick up some more car parts and then carried on cross country via some nice SLK roads to the A1(M) passing the Duxford Museum:

Never mind the low flying Spitfire, I also had a bird strike (Crow?) that made a hell of a thud, that made the centre light console sun-glass holder drop down...!! Lucky no damage after I cleaned it up.

That was quite a trip.Managed to get the top down for a little bit today when i met a few of the chaps for a trip to a very very wet yorkshire dales.
Great day out regardles of the rain...i even managed to think on my feet and turn the cars engine stright off when i hit a small....urrm puddle and coast out of it.
Thanks to the chaps for holding my bonnet open in the wind and rain while i checked the air filter for any water ingress before we swam on to tann hill.
Great fun day out View attachment 579800 View attachment 579801 View attachment 579802 View attachment 579803 View attachment 579804
