Banger Racing

Me and Will took the lads Banger Racing today in Horndean...

The full contact destruction races were the most fun. I think Reggie fancies a go...

"Dad, can we buy it?"

Fun in the pits checking out the car, or what's left of some of them...

The post script is that this was one of the last ever races at the Horndean Track.  The last ever race is scheduled for 12th Oct!

It was a great fun day :-)

Emsworth 'Rain' Show

Me and Joe went up to the Emsworth Show.  The weather was dreadful.  There was hardly anyone there but there were some Maaaaassive Pumkins!

Joe did some foot skating on the way home?!?

Arsenal v Lyme Regis

Lyme Regis played Arsenal XI in a amateur v pro-celebrity match in Lyme Regis today.  Joe met Patrick Robinson from Strictly Come Dancing....

Arsenal had a few old Arsenal pros and won the game quite easily...

There were a few other celebs such as Ralph Little from the Royal Family...

All good fun...
