Thats right, I was minding my own business, when a strange sensation came over me. It was like an ethereal presence, I only had scant seconds to raise my camera to the sky before it was gone and the noise of LeMans racers was no longer drowned out....

It was a weird sensation, actually getting to see something that you really wished with all your heart you would see. It was sobering. Its definately one ticked off my to do/see before I die list. My next goal will be to get up close and personal.

It must be even more shocking when you weren't expecting it!

Parents were the same, they were just driving over here when they saw her, and then she was in the same place on the way home - near Waddington.

There's one at Wellesbourne in Warks too, I turned up at the market there and nearly wee'd on the spot. I had to drive up and take a look at the old girl.

Shane the one we saw yesterday wasn't a bit lower!

I dropped a few quid off at the Vulcan stall at the Lotus party yesterday.

Apparently it's going to be close money wise. :(
