Morning all.
Nice relaxing today today. Apart from getting tester pots for painting the kitchen and looking at garden furniture zzzzzz.
Off out to Alex's cousins tonight for a meal and drink. Which should be good, as the are 'foodies'.
Whereas I'm an 'eatie'!

Then tomorrow morning the Alfa GT is getting a remap! Hopefully and extra 40-50 horses and a load more torque!

Once again...boys will be boys... What engine does your GT have?

If he's expecting that, I'd guess it's a diesel.

All jobs done and back home. Entertaining dick in a Yaris objected to me passing him on the inside down the M1. He really *tried* to keep up. Poor chap

Hi guys, an interesting day so far. I was told that the penninsular wouldn't be open until at least 3pm, if at all, so I took a gamble and went over at 09.45. As I left the ferry I cut into the middle of a 7 car convoy which were all Turkish registered. Guess what? Loads of manned checkpoints but they were allowing Turks through and if they realised a Brit was in the middle, it was too late, I was gone. So, despite the efforts of the aforementioned (but since deleted) parties I was on V beach by 10.15. When I got down to the beaches, the crowds were non-existent thereby confirming my previously aired theory.

V Beach where the 'River Clyde' was beached and 6 VCs were won in the action there.

W Beach where the Lancashire Fusiliers 'won 6 VCs before breakfast'. The wreck on the beach is from 1915 (the boat, not the car!).

Been there, done that and got the T-shirt.

I'll 'do' Anzac and Suvla bay tomorrow as I'm going to try and take some photos for (Ferrari) Frank. Lots of off-roading in prospect but not if it's been raining. So, all in all, a mixed day. I couldn't be there for sunrise but I did get there 'on the day' which means a lot. I even bumped into the son of one of the chaps who made it ashore with the Munsters at the landing on V Beach. Apparently, he survived the war with a Military medal and bar despite being badly wounded twice.

Very careful, a friend of mine got a ticket for overtaking on the inside lane

A very good morning to all.......Looks a bit dull and wet today after the lovely weather we have been having...Still, off out to wash the cars now under the car port.
