That would have been soul destroying.. even missing all the social events at the end with presentations etc I noticed he didnt say 'we'll be back'... but it was his second crack at it. Some awesome sounding V8's in that vid...

I had my own little shed find yesterday.

This 200B hidden in behind a bunch of busted old steam boilers.


And this Humber that was apparently on the road until just a few years ago.

First saw this not long after I moved locally.  Guess that means it’s been sitting there for a (not) good 20years and the climate is most certainly not dry in Newcastle.

Only one real one in of the three and that was the green one. Unfortunately that recently caught fire so a few repairs are now needed.
