	Didn’t go for a drive in a classic, was busy doing an errand for a good friend. But I drove within 500 yards of this place forum.retro-rides.org/thread/218143/new-derbyshire-car-museum-opening There were loads of stuff coming towards me, obviously on the way back from there

	We took the Sprint down to Broadstairs. Fish n chips and an ice cream on the beach. It was lovely and sunny and the car behaved, so a nice jaunt was had by all. We only saw two other classics - a MK2 Jag in Broadstairs itself, and a Rolls broken down on the A2 near Faversham. AA was on the spot, so hope the Roller got rolling again. Bit disappointing though just two other classics spotted all day!? Just thought - didn’t take any photos either 🙄

	Out here in Derbyshire with my SIMCA 1200S coupe along with SIMCA Club member Steve Wood with his 1204 special hatchback. Photos from stop at the site of the 'Great British Car Journey'museum near Ambergate due to open on 22 May. Massive turnout of cars there....

I saw you on your way back, the blue one was the first of a load of classics that were coming towards me. You passed me somewhere along Sawmills, you were heading towards the Excavator 👍🏼

	Will dd a few pics later of a small, incredibly well respected gathering in a carpark. Amazed at not seeing one handshake, and also automatic social distancing from a bunch of old men.

	I kinda forgot but I did drive the Mazda to pick up some £60 Cobra SuperSlots. Much to Dez's bemusement.

	Yesterday a local company run by a mutual friend www.asmotorsport.co.uk/ They make DB1 and DB2 replicas - like below is having a "low key" open day and so I'm taking the 740 - picking up Geoff and we can go to the open day together - Be nice for him to get a last ride out in the car - be my last drive in the car too as it's being collected Friday. However one of the attendees arrived in a helicopter so Sunday afternoon was spent cleaning the car - again!!!

Good times

	I bounced the van over to Caffeine & Machine, as they had a Japanese-themed weekend. It was very pleasant.
