excuse. Also saw 2 Spitfires this morning, one with roof, one without, and a
MGB topless!!!!! surprise eh!!! Also saw the usual Escorts/Astras/Rover
Cabriolets with roofs up! On a side note, it was our(Leicester area of the

Spitfires, 2 Vitesse Mk2 convertibles, Herald Estate and saloon, 3 GT6's, good
turnout for a club meeting eh!
