Default Ashby Folville Subarus, 9th July 2013

Here's a few photos from this evening's scorching hot gathering in East Leicestershire. There were a few more Scoobies, but I ran out of time.

Sorry they aren't up to much. I've had 49 years to perfect the technique of taking crap pictures....

On the second Tuesday of each month, but it's best between April and September for fairly obvious weather and daylight reasons.

It's probably the biggest informal car, bike and other road transport meeting in Britain. Make sure you arrive by about 5.30pm or it can be chaos.

You were around your car with the boot up while we were nearby and I couldn't get a photo of it with no-one in the way. There were a couple of other Classics a little way away but I missed them too.

My Type 20 was parked almost opposite you by the tall hedge at the edge of the field. Sadly, on the way home I realised I'd not taken one of it there either! As I said, I'm some photographer.

I have no idea why someone with a crappy Passat thinks they ought to park on the main field. They do let some rubbish in sometimes.

If you fancy coming to the Mill on the Soar tomorrow evening, you'll be most welcome, but I appreciate it is a bit of a trek for you:
