Fabulous weekend - We went in a 1930s Blower Bentley. Still exhausted after it but what a blast. Camping was almost comfortable having taken the Pistonheads 'package' deal.

Dinner in Arnage on Sat was great with the drive past / car show

Giggling while crawling to the track at 1am (bypassing the marshalls) to watch the race brought me back to my childhood.

Happy Days
