Very likely to go but will drive straight to Cornbury House.

But can recommend Ma Larkin's breakfasts as was there this morning en route to 928 owners' meet in Oxfordshire!

Nice to see everyone this morning for breakfast. The old Little Chef indistructable sausage lives on, mostly bread and sawdust but still tasty .

The icy roads and the pheasants made for entertaining driving on the way to the cafe.

Chris and Carol had the right idea, ditch the Porsche and take the Coupe with heated seats.

Usual fayre and banter at Cornbury house, I bought Tony Dron's new book (engineering excellence) which is very interesting and full of facts and figures about most of the models.

Matt did you get home ok and have you found out what the problem was with your '24?

Home safe and well thanks Sean (after waiting till 3pm for the engineer to arrive ).
It was the fuel pump relay, fixed up a temp bodge of a couple of lengths of wire and a blade type fuse to get home on.
Apparently the relay was just sticking.
Anyone got some spares they want rid of????
Top tip; don't break down on a cold Sunday morning, you may be there quite a while............

[Sean Smallman]

We told you to say you were pregnant and only had 1 leg.

Glad your home safe, you'll have to tell how to bodge the relay so others may learn just in case.

Ma -Larkin what a rip off £6.80 for two eggs on toast and a coffee, she wasn't even good looking, not like the bird down the A5.

Never mind ,good laugh as always , felt sorry for Matt, never mind you didn't really miss much .

Mike.
