Default A Very English Day indeed!

On Sunday Itook my wife and 18 year old son in the xk8 (yes 3 adults is possible), roof down, to the Jaguar Enthusiasts Club JEC 30th birthday do at Thorsby Hall.

After the medieval jousting, display of cars representing the jaguar timeline, talking"Jags" with other enthusiasts over a hog roast, ice cream and taking too few picturesI settled down, on the terrace of an English country house, with a cream tea and watched the spitfire flyby. Then top down drove home through the rolling English countryside.

I don't thinkit’s possible to have a more English day!

I was fortunate enough only once enough to see and hear a Spitfire in action, and it definately has the best soundtrack that was ever made my a machine.

Thanks for sharing!
