This looks amazing!

I could be tempted to take the B3 if the weather is good.

I went a good few years ago. It was a really good day actually, some amazing flying on show with planes and helicopters although I did get the distinct feeling the cars were very much a side show and wasn’t the principle reason for attending,
But if you want a good air show (although not huge) then it’s a worth a visit.

Hmm. Perhaps not then as I would’ve gone for the cars first, planes second.

How are you pal?

I’m good thanks Sab, went for a blast to caffeine and machine on Monday after work as it’s not too far for me. Always interesting stuff to see parked up. I see the B3 is looking nice and shiny these days.👍🏻

Indeed. I’d like to visit caffeine and machine however, it’s likely to be next spring now.

I mustered up the courage after a lengthy phone call with the owner of a premium car wash to give it a try. Cost £40 for a contactless wash. It was ok apart from some idiot decided it was ok to place my booster on my rear seats!🤬. That killed it for me.

Luckily there was no damage.

Are there any events worth considering while the weather is good ?
