Pictures from MG Northumbria

Ravinder · 2nd July 2018, 19:47

My pictures that I took at MG Northumbria yesterday. It was the first time that I have been. Also, a new location as well I believe and I thought it was very nice and had a really good time. Great to see some cars from all eras, not just Rovers. The weather? Wow! 24 degrees and sunshine. It will take some beating. I was quite happy sitting on a chair basking in the sun and that indeed is what I did mostly.

I drove down from Fife via the A68. Lovely road it is. Very scenic and I had the road to myself as I left at the back of 6am. The daily shed drove lovely. I didn't get a chance to clean her in time for the show as I was working late the night before. It was great to meet some new faces and old and good to chat. Graham1961 fell asleep in mid conversation with me....I'm not that boring, Graham!

Some pictures below taken mostly on mobile and a few with the camera. Thanks.

The moment Graham fell asleep when I was talking to him...

Rav

Brilliant photo's of the day, and very much appreciated especially as you had to travel some distance, love the one's of Graham asleep, also the one of Nigel and SWMBO having a sleep as well, they all must have had a night on the tiles

Please don't take photos while you're driving.

You are leaving yourself open to prosecution too.

Nice to meet you Ravinder.

Great pics. Chuckling at the one of me polishing the car. I think I dropped the yellow duster not long after that pic was taken. Got covered in straw....couldnt get it off.....so much I had to chuck it!

Sorry, Paul. There may of been a few but I’d didn’t walk everywhere. I was too lazy for that...

I did see a convoy of Minis on the way home. There was about 15 of them. It was a great site.
