Would have loved to see so many 7 s. But unfortunately the joys of my adopted second home Malta kept me away.

Hope today goes as well !!!!!

Finally! Some evidence that I was actually there:
Image

I arrived in convoy with my neighbour in his Herald, and although there is a photo of his car in the above sequence, there isn't a clear shot of my red DHC next to it. I didn't take any pictures while I was there, so I'm hoping someone puts up a shot of my car as a reminder of the day.

I remarked to my neighbour that since I bought my TR7 last August, I've only seen one other, and that was at a show in Coventry. Yesterday I counted 18 others parked around mine! I think it'll be a while before I see that many in one place again...

Cheers,
Dean

Thanks John,

It's RBC 239 W, red DHC. I was sandwiched between the Herald and the Dolomite, but was only at the air museum.

Cheers,
Dean
