A few memories from Denmark
I’ve finally been going through some of the photos from our five days in Denmark with Gromit.
97 years old, temperatures well over 30°C, five days of driving… and somehow he kept going. 😅
There were definitely a few moments when I was watching that temperature gauge more than the road ahead, but looking…Read More

We had a fantastic time! The Danish countryside is absolutely beautiful, the roads are excellent, and everyone was so friendly. We took the ferry from Harwich to the Hook of Holland, rather than from Hull.
Regarding Gromit’s twin, I’m pretty sure the owner told me where the car came from, but unfortunately, the information went in one ear and str…Read More-

No sorry I forgot English English was your not your first language. SP is slang for the info on that or the details. I think it comes from the horse racing circles, not sure really. All I know is, I say it, my mother says it, my friends say it and we are all originally from in and around south London.

I was told about this event a few days ago: https://www.roverp4dg.org.uk/index.php/events
I think it would be a fantastic opportunity to meet some fellow Rover P4 enthusiasts and take Auntie to see her brothers and sisters…I bet she hasn’t done that in a while!
Of course, there’s still a lot to do before she’s ready, but I’m going to try.…Read More

You will get there. Perhaps you can sweet talk Colin into doing a bit whilst you are away, i’m sure he won’t say no if there is a bottle of his chosen poison involved. Have a nice holiday.

sharing your opinion! 😂 I’m not sure they’re allowed to put a Bugatti badge on that thing!

I get Pur Sang replicas to a point. (You may be able to fill me in, are they actually as good as they look and do they run right?) But this, just why. It looks like a T35 has been described by a blind man down the phone to a fella with parkinsons who was drawing it😂

A new Auntie video is live! 🎉
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all the support you’ve been giving this project. Every comment, suggestion, and word of encouragement really does mean a lot. ❤️
Quite a few of you noticed that the brake bleed nipples don’t seem to be at the highest point. Great spot! 👀 I’m already looking into it, and…Read More

Looks like you had fun which is what matters. Danish countryside looks nice, would not mind a trip there myselfs. Do they still do the ferry from Hull across the north sea? OACX104 that’s a weird plate, looks like an GB one but different layout to the norm. Do you know the S.P on that one? My most favorites photo? The one with Gromit and the windmill.
