300 mile trip round Wales with the Mk1s
The weekend just gone, in the amazign sun shine, me and WWM jumped in the Mk1 one, met up with some of it's brothers and sisters and had a day out round Wales, 300 miles with the rood off and the amazing sun shine.
Massive thanks to WWM for bringing his camera and documenting the trip.

I recognise some of those roads!
When did you get into Barmouth mate? I was out and about last weekend. I must have just missed you.

It was a really nice day out.
To be honest I couldn't tell you what time we made it there, I paid very little attention to the clock I know we started about half 9 and stopped for dinner by the beach with the little castle which was our half way point and I think we where home for about 6.
Shame you missed us.

I cant believe you didn't include the Barmouth Blonde Bombshell in your trip
Looks like a great day ... some great roads in Wales - almost as good as Ireland
A row of MK1s really is a nice sight

Yeah, we really did turn a few heads that day. One of the comments I heard was "why are they all the same" LOL
One day, I'd love to come over for a drive round Ireland. I'm currently eyeing up a turbo for sale in Belfast actually, so you never know.
I put a post up yesterday about it but have not been able to get back on the site since so I'm going to see if it's had any responses now.

Feel free to use at will
Perhaps we should start a thread to see what other words starting with B could be added

We didn't ask anyone, but then noone challenged us either. I work on the basis you can do anything...until you get caught!!
