Looks like you had an absolute blast JP. I'm not in the tiniest bit jealous. But I demand you stop smiling immediately

Day 4 - tour of the Moraine, so what is MS Triss doing in the parking lot? why that would be a spontaneous tech session courtesy of Peter Caldwell of Worldwide auto parts, entitled how to replace a shock on a '76 Midget.

Fortunately she wasn't alone or she might have been embarrassed.

Course then someone shows up with a gas powered blender and all the pain goes away.

Oh, and what would the day be without drag races.

Last day, back to the ferry but lunch first - cheap food, surly service, what more could you ask for?! (Oh, and Nelson and Cathy - don't have a good pic of his car but man is it pretty!)

 

[JPSmit]

and that was that, a wonderful time was had by all!

So where's the picture where you aren't smiling. I can't even make out Ms Triss in the Winners Circle photo - your dazzling smile completely overpowers her

No picture but, when I was sitting in the middle of nowhere in 100 deg weather and the header tank had just leaked for the second time and I couldn't get the torch lit - trust me I wasn't smiling.
