Well the plan is/was/maybe to attend my first car show with the car, the Cumbria Classic at Dalemain near Ulswater on Sunday. Problem is that Mr Met Man tells me that we have a severe weather warning over Cumbria. Alsolutely no weather protection so do I go and get wet but have fun or act the wimp and stay home? Plan at pres is to borrow a gazebo off a mate to put over the car at the show. Decisions, decisions!!!

Personally I'd wimp out. I had to drive my 7 from Essex to London in torrential rain the day after my wedding and it was one of the scarriest thing I've ever done.

Couldn't see a blind thing and had quite a few clenchy aqua-plaining moments! Getting soaking wet and freezing cold wasn't much fun either....
