Bromley Pageant 2017

Any zoners there ? I had my old jalopy there on a stand and chatted to loads of nice folk during the day. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y110/Splondike/20170617_183143_zpsxo8j4nso.jpg Was a good day, not many BMWs in attendance and no club stand ?

Yes it was interesting, also odd the way they were thrown in there too. We had a good day out, it probably helped me that I had not been for over 10 years so it was good to see the museum and the extra bits.
