Also I'll br brining along a decent 35mm digi camera this time. So shine your cars up folks and get ready for some photo's. Hopefully I'll get a passenger to take some of us 'en-route' again like last time.

The old ones can be seen in the gallery at http://bb.fragalot.net. (you need to register)

I was thinking along the same lines as last years effort (where we went to Engine Advantages in Witham - followed by a blast down the A12... over the A130.. then down the A127 to the Halfway House Pub, for light refreshments and maybe even a meal or something for those that way inclined.
