Another early start saw us arrive just after 9am. Hospitality for the day was the Goodwood Mess, a WW11 airforce mess complete with officers. The Doc said I was fine…

The film studios were filming the Italian Job, complete with actors, cars and props

Whilst the Earls Court Motor Show had a fantastic display of Aston’s, including Valkyrie and an original publicity shot for the mini.

Racing wise the highlight was the BROOKLANDS Trophy, for Bentley’s up to 1930.

Over 30 of them thundering around the circuit. As well as many other special cars with unique history. They even recreated a fire in the pits to simulate Aston winning the world championship in 1959.

And finally a few fashion shots for Sally…

By 3pm it was 27 degrees and we were both fading fast. I didn’t really do the event fully but feel glad I actually made it ! Oh I got a few brochures, books etc as well…
