I am guessing you will have to bring your own gas-mask!

Hi folks,
Mr Dragon fancies going (driving the V70) to this meeting again this year, and I can't go.
Would any of you be interested in accompanying him in this fun car?

I had one of those special moments driving down the M1 yesterday - I found myself between a 480 and C30 T5 - what a magical moment! I wonder if the C30 owner had any idea that they were alongside the daddy of their car... :hopping: Anyway, the 480 was M38 L** I think. Came off at Meadowhell behind t...

The Dragons (and pooch!) should be up for another 480 weekend away, not seen you all in Aaaaaaages! As for location, any would be acceptable to me, but I can't speak for Himself! Date - any other than the first week in Sept which is when we are on our annual pilgrimage to Burghley Horse Trials! :hop...

Ah yes, the Hallamshire, I was on my way out from collecting my mother from one of her days out there! :( As I work at RHH, and travel in on the A61, I often see the same blue 480 tucked away in its little driveway and it always cheers me. :hopping: As for the A class, yes you may never spot me, but...

Bessie!
W reg silver Talbot Horizon SX
She was my grandfather's and he gave her to me when she was 11 years old, had only done 28000 then!
Only lost her due to recurrent (auto) gearbox failings.

3:15pm Monday 7th July
Glossop Road, Sheffield

11:30 am Sunday 6th July.
Hoylandswaine roundabout

Then again at about 9am Monday 7th in Foxhill!

Biggest? 7.5 ton Bedford horsebox

Most expensive? My boss's brand new Jeep Cherokee (when I was 21!)

More recently I have been offered a colleague's SLK when my old car was poorly, but I never took advantage of it.

And many birthday felicitations from us too!

A & G

Very sensible not to add a pic of me Mr Pearson!

Mr Dragon plays the drums

Junior is scared of cats!


btw, do you have any horses on/near the property??

Mr & Mrs Dragon (and hound) may attempt a visit, depending on dates. June/July would be better for us.

Bit like here in Royston then!

You weren't in the car, it was parked on the side of the road. We sometimes got that way to see the horse, who lives near Howbrook.
