Castle Combe Race Track

Great weather, great company and fantastic photo's just about sums up our trip yesterday to Castle Combe Race Track

Around 12 of us made the effort and were rewarded by a brilliant day. We met some very enthusiastic and very friendly petrol heads. Saw some amazing cars and took some amazing pictures.

My day started at 0500 when I got up and went down to see the Super Yacht Mogambo sailing out of Bristol Harbour along with Mike Garton.

Then we headed up to Castle Combe for the Great Western Sprint. When we arrived there were already lots of fellow club members wandering around and taking pictures.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Dan for volunteering to organise this months trip and booking the fabulous weather. If you want to see more pictures from our day out they should be appearing in our Flickr Group over the next few days.

Unsavoury characters seen around Bristol Docks

On Thursday night we had our walk around the Docks. It was supposed to be a meet at Weston Super Mare but those inconsiderate people who are rebuilding the pier are behind schedule.
Ten of us turned up outside the Ostrich Pub and we had an enjoyable stroll along under the three cranes and up to the Buttery, which unfortunately was closed. Lots of pictures were taken and we all had a great time until a boat full of topless rowers went past, shameful display if you ask me, and someone got all excited!

We all enjoyed ourselves and I'm sure you'll get to see some more of the pictures that were taken. This, terrible, picture was at the end of the walk when we decided to rest our weary legs and get some much needed refreshment back at the Ostrich.
