In relation to PI...... you bastard, I hope it rains!

Ha ha thanks Pete
, and thanks for the advice re best viewing spots.
Truth be told, the historics are far and away our main interest, but seeing the GP is on the following weekend, and we'll be down there anyway, might as well go and have a look.
Actually one of the old Healey boys is running a Lister Jaguar on the GP weekend so it will be nice to see that, and it will be interesting to hear what the new FI turbo engines sound like, but other than that I think the two days preceding race day will be enough for us.
On the other hand, PI historics --- can't wait!!!!!
