Bit crummy in the morning, thanks to long queues of traffic, and morons not letting people past

In the afternoon once a few people had given up, was much better

Even with 20 y/o suspension on our car, you could drive up behind people through the first corner

(white, F reg?) there on the day, didn't get the chance to speak to the driver, but they seemed to be going pretty well
