Re: Peterborough - BMC / BL Rally & Spares Day
I'm afraid to say I won't be able to go now as Eamonn is feeling rather unwell at the moment. Let's hope he makes a speedy recovery.
Weather is supposed to be pretty awful tomorrow as well, what a sh*t summer this has been!
Note to anyone who was expecting parts from me: They are all still here and I will contact everyone to arrange another way of getting them to you.

It'll be fine tomorrow, as a Swedish friend said to me the other year, "there's no such thing as bad weather, there's just the wrong clothes".
Bring rainware and suitable foot ware and it'll be fine.

It depends where they put you? AFAIK Ferry Meadows was both a Clay extraction area for bricks and Gravel extraction for roads.ScreamingLordStokes wrote:Nene Park should drain well, from what i remember it is quite sandy soil.
Both were dumped by the Nene river over many years.

Re: Peterborough - BMC / BL Rally & Spares Day
Thanks for the photos Sean
Shame I couldn't make it, oh well always next year and let's hope the weather is better
Good to see Gary's Mumford finally out. I'm surprised to see it out in the rain though

Re: Peterborough - BMC / BL Rally & Spares Day
Thanks josh. The rain is getting heavy again but at least I managed to catch up with some of the guys again. Now it's time to dig out the brolly and head back up to the auto jumble for some 20/50 as reynard drank the oil coming down the road and I never had enough to top him up.
