Goodwood – Part 2
But the highlight of the day came at lunchtime back in the March ‘clubhouse’.
Whilst we just had sandwiches and crisps, rather than the sit-down lunch option…
We were there when Sir Jackie Stewart arrived to give an interview and ended up just a few feet away.
Which is a good excuse to give a plug to his charity.

I’ve only got this one photo of me at the event.
I did see the ‘Discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb’ area that
Slartibartfast was on, complete with camel.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to say hello to either him or
Mister Towed.
There were some very light showers during the day and by the time I was leaving, the sky looked like this.
I also passed this car on the way out, that I remember seeing when
Mr T took a photo of it years ago.
Thankfully, I managed to get home as dusk was falling.
As it turned out that somewhere along the journey my headlights had stopped working.

(I had front side lights and high beam on both sides but no ‘normal’ headlights.)
In all, I did over 170 miles in the day, which took almost 6.5 hours!
That is my longest single day total and, after filling up today, I think I got around 37 mpg.
Which is not too bad, given the fact I spend as much time in 1st in traffic as I did in 4th cruising.
Until next time, take care, Paul.
