Scorchio

After spending time in Gills Astra Cabriolet Saturday morning and my TR7 Saturday afternoon I think I had a touch of sunstroke on Saturday night, it was up to 32 in our area. Was hoping it would be a bit cooler on Sunday for Stonham Barns classic car show, but no, scorchio again. Not a long run, however we had used all our liquid by the time we got there at 10am. This show seems to be gaining in popularity, a lot of cars there this year. After the usual bacon butties we had a look around the cars before seeking the shade in the Stonham Barns retail outlets, places I would normally avoid but anything to get out of the sun today, especially liked the furniture store with its sofas and cooling electric fans. Mid afternoon we had a threatening sky, but it only rained for a few minutes, but heavy enough to make the hoods go up for a while, really humid after that.
A few photos of some cars that took my eye.
