So far the yellow warning for thunderstorms has been a bit OTT. Had some rain, a couple of almighty claps of thunder and saw one flash of lightning earlier but that's it.

Hi Jeff, remember this? A photo taken by Ros on 30 March 2014
From left in the photo (for those who don’t know) is Gatekeeper, in the middle it’s Windrush and on the right is Coolcat. It was my first visit ever to the BTCC and you took me into the car pits. Some beauties were there to greet us

Well that was a busy day.. Finished fitting chicken wire to the gates (Hopefully this will keep out the visiting dog!) Then cut the grass and weeded the yard.

Onto the long term lagoon project, changed both front arm bushes as the handling was a little bit 'interesting' to say the least, its a strange car, the bodywork and interior has been very unloved and generally abused for a car with170k on the clock. Underneath is very very clean and unmolested!?!

Out with the dogs for a walk, now enjoying a couple of Guinness as im off work tomorrow
