We all had a good day,
I broke my car and fixed part of Tintins...
Got lost following Higlander!! ( does he not know his own country!! )
Watched tintin demolish 2 LARGE sausage butties..
Saw some planes.. ( good value for money that  )
And generaly had a good day. 4hrs or so...
...
We spent 20 mins trying to sort by blown indicators, in the end I had to drive 120 miles home without them...
I also had to sort a number of other issues after my 2yr old had been playing in the car...
1) Close sunroof ( why do they work with the ignition off?)
2) Re position mirror ( That was a heart stopping moment when I glanced over and saw him pulling it arround!!! )
3) Why are peps flasshing and beconing? ( Ahhh he's put main beam on!! )
4) Why's my bum so bloomin hot!! ( ahh he's put my seat heater on!!! )
Little fella locked himself in the car too with the keys!!! fortunatly the tailgate was open 
All together not a bad day...
Good drive home, had to stop to buy some Hedex... and to do another impromptu nappy change... Dam useful the estate!
Oh...
And look at the pic.. HOW LOW CAN YOU GO!!!
Mines the Tourmallard Estate 2nd from right...

We also had a laugh at Geoff...

I demonstrated mine was a non pushy type..
Then demonstrated Geoffs was PUSSHY.. and hey Presto... Boot opens  ... Senile old codger forgot to lock his mota...

yep, good meet ! spitfires are the coolest .....
a problem shared and all that.... i feel a bit better about my car (now i've heard TTs idle  )
brilliant to find probably reason for my "sticky" idle (d**n, why do i keep trusting garages to put back the bits properly?), and catch up with everyone again,
you'll be glad to know i got back in one piece !!

Spits... A good Mk4 1300 with a bit of tweaking is a Joy... pity the 1500 was not as good... But drop in that loverley 2.5 Six ...
Yeah.. Mine is RUF!!!...
Did your car run better on the way back..
Your EGR valve would have been opening all the time with the way the garage had left the vac lines.. What a total F...k up...

Mature moment TT Luckily following the Concorde experience (bloomin amazing) I came back to find six people standing guard on my motor.. must remember to push the button next time
Good day out and actually in Sams case I think you will find that it was a sausage sandwich followed by a bacon sandwich
Incidentally TT did you resist the temptation to indicate on the way back? Good luck with the flasher relay or switch!
One tank of 95 octane later at 28.6mpg
And thanks Stuart for the wingtip and liner
