Saw you guys driving on my patch the other day (think it was Friday afternoon)!

I was driving in the opposite direction in the Audi though so you wouldn't have spotted me.

It was in Cholsey, Oxfordshire.

We took a very, very long route home. Via Cardiff, Bath, Reading, Oxford, and even Harrogate.

We decided to explore a bit of the country while we had time off—we very rarely get down past the Midlands. Oxfordshire is lovely, we want to come back more often!

(Nice meeting both of you guys while we were at Gaydon, by the way.)

We got married on Thursday 31st and drove down for Gaydon with the Scottish region the next morning. TIPEC ’08 followed by a week of touring the south was our honeymoon.

Are you suggesting that we’ll need it? :lol:

Seriously, thanks everyone. We were having a laugh by writing ‘just married’ across the car for Gaydon, but it was really lovely how many people stopped to wish us well on the day.

So that's your car :D

I spotted it at the top of the hill when I was lining up for the track session and wondered if it had actually been on there for years as a laugh. Congratulations, you won't need any luck at all (just lot's of patience, tolerance and alcohol :wink: )

We'd been staying at the Elephant in Pangbourne, which I can highly recommend. Dinner at the Bull in Sonning the night before. I love Berkshire!
