Breakfast of Kings

 Another Goodwood breakfast club meet, which was as awesome as ever...

...but I almost missed it because I thought I had booked tickets when I hadn't. Luckily, someone else in the PPCC club couldn't make it, so they gave me their ticket.

Great drive down to meet up with the group at a Costa near Goodwood:


Short drive to Goodwood with some great looking cars just in the car park. The cars on circuit were as amazing as ever - possible highlight were 2 F40s which we saw being driven in; lovely noise:






Never seen a blue Z8 and there were 2 other Z8s there as well:


Gorgeous interior:



My brother had a 205 almost exactly like this in the early 90s:



Now that's different:

Such a great meet...fun drive back as well.

So the Wales trip next weekend but I'm a bit concerned; spoke to the main organiser and she said that these are not your usual road trips, "it's not only driving". Like that's a good thing - oh dear. And the trip has been organised by someone who has never done one before. The routes have been shared and there is a lot of use of the M4 motorway! And the hotel for 3 nights is a Travel lodge on the side of the M4! This is not looking promising...hopefully,  I'm just being a pessimist and it will be fine.

I've planned a couple of alternate routes to avoid the motorway which I'll offer to anyone who wants to join me.
