Looks odds on that we'll be joining the run rather than Silverstone. Just got back from the Imp weekend that included parking up 30 or so Imps in Market Sq in Llandovery as part of the sheep festival - bumped into Modf for a chat. Modf - the young guy I told you about with the BMW engine in his white Imp? - wrote it off on a roundabout at Brecon on the way back from Epynt, luckily not seriously hurt. We got back with a bodge holding the alternator in place - so if you find a 4 inch bolt between Llanwrtyd and Cynhordy it's ours ! Luckily we caught the issue before the lack of cooling fried the engine. New bolt now in place with nylock nut.. lesson learned. Damn, I am glad he is OK, poor end to a good day for them I reckon! Will keep an eye out, but I came back that way as a big old detour returning from that Vintage show last Sunday via Builth. Didn't hit anything I remember.

See you all there. Just fitting up my GoPro for in-car video I can edit later, was going to go for nice forward view over back of seats but don't fancy world seeing my bald patch in 1080 HD much. Window mount it is. How much money are we needing for parking fees roughly?

I've got them to waiver the parking fee at the visitor centre. Devil's Bridge, we have managed to blag free parking. Maybe £2.oo fee at the chippy, depends how many free spaces there are when we get there.
