... and is there honey still for tea? - homesick of Michigan

There's no clue here guys, we just stopped to tweak the carb.

More carb. tweaking - Peter Hills' 'Out of Africa' tourer

The Perkins' 'Tiffy' in agreeable surroundings.  Good parking, Clive

Mike Jones and nav Graham created some work for the engravers

And Allen Jubb annexes the Sports andVintage Cup ...

Empty glasses, empty bottle, rosy cheeks.  Chris Lambert asks if there is any more hog left

The Redmond Racer in the paddock at Mallory ...

... and on the line before his titanic battle to avoid last place
