Team TVR and Porsche meet up at Holiday Inn in MK and drive down to Hythe (next to Chunnel). All uneventful! For our corporate readers departure time was just after 5PM, obviously.
The Swan Hotel in Hythe is a bit different in real life to its internet persona. However, any hotel with a bar serving London Pride is going to be popular.
Wandered round the Hythe sprawling metropolis and managed to find an average curry house.
Found another bar selling Spitfire! Superb!
Posters saying ‘Rear gunners drink lager shandy’, ‘Don’t mention the Spitfire’, ‘4-2’, ‘Vots so funny about ze posters’ and ‘Have the sun beds, we’re going to the bar’ etc kept us giggling. Can you decode the Bletchley Park poster attached?
Back to The Swan and Dom makes a new friend. The gentleman in question was particularly concerned about Dom’s welfare. ‘Is that a bruise sir?’ The liaison was doomed to failure, primarily because Dom’s grasp of Kasmiri is too limited for even the most basic conversation, plus he was clearly not even slightly interested.
Early start on Friday and onto the chunnel.
All chaps and cars running top!
