Good to have a day out at last. Little disappointed at the turnout but that seems par for the course these days. Fortunately those present were on form so Andrew, young lad in the village who is well into cars, managed to scrounge rides in representatives of most cars present. As well as Andrew I had Root with me too. So they scampered off to investigate while I prattled to folk.
Also good to renew and confirm contact with the Museum itself. It is a much more flexible layout than on the previous property. I suspect a lot easier to run too, as Mike and Paula have a variety of occupations in addition to the museum and camping. One reason for the limited opening hours. The site offers the possability of a quite big event but the history of take up has set the wise to unfulfilled promises. Given a full on organizer to work with the venue could very easily be the British Story.
However unless your a Treinkelnaut, or supporter, or one of the other various marques using the site, the nest general Microcar meet here is a continuation of the successful Halloween weekends.
A deviation on the way home saw the Pod dropped off at its new home and 131/2 hours after leaving we arrived home 145 miles away from the days events.
An auction of Schmitts by Bonhams and Matlock next weekend......
