    For the 4 wheeled petrol heads amongst you, here's a few of the views from the weekend. Not processed them all yet as I'm still feeling a bit frazzled. There's even a trick Monkey Bike for Dan.

    I'm not a Ferrari lover as such, but the sight of 70 F40's all lined up was pretty spectacular.

    Cheers Barney.

    Praise from a man who can make Giv' look cool, is praise indeed.

    Jeanette put factor 50 cream in my bag, which worked brilliantly, but like a dickhead I thought 'what bits normally get burned? Forehead, nose, neck and arms'. So I splashed those bits liberally but forgot ears, cheeks and chin. So today I've got a bright pink beard. My chin bled when I shaved this morning, and that's with an electric razor.

    You can understand now why I took all those pictures of the Monkey Bike. Real class will always out.

    No sweat mate. I was probably too knackered to socialise in the end anyway. We gave the prize for the Fuji Classic race then split. Of course, my boss got one of his 'special' headaches that stops him driving, and 'could I just nip into Oxford, to pick something up on the way back'. He offered to take over at Bristol, shit, I can almost see my house from Bristol.

    As everybody was swapping the loan cameras all day on Saturday, god knows where most of my images ended up, but hopefully all the other guests are dropboxing me all that's on the cards from them so I'll get some more posted then. It left us cameraless on Sunday though. All the ones above I shot on Jeanette's little Lumix that I blagged before we left. That embarrassed the Fuji management a bit. The only camera to record the prize giving being a Panasonic. Still, if the miserable bastard reps hadn't pissed off early with the kit there wouldn't have been a problem.
