The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

Another superb day at Popham Airfield, and a warm one too Great to meet up with with the Dolomiters again after such a very long time.

My dear old Pi is starting to show signs of some serious remedial work needed to the engine and the fuel system. After Reg just flicked the key of his Granada and wafted away, the protracted cranking of my Pi was just no good at all Oh well, time to fix the BMW

People, weather and location made it such a fab day..great to see you all again, after what seems ages!

No dolly this year, so as the Granada was behaving (for now), it got a run out..

Sorry I missed Tony, and I also missed James Martin the TV chef..saw his Ferrari though..very nice..

Hi All,
I have to agree with all your comments, it was a great day and good to catch up..!

Here's a few pics;

Dolly 1500SE, unfortunately we did not get to say hello to the owner...



Good to see Tony's MSO in the flesh, great resto...





A pre war Dolomite, always good to see these...



An Amphicar, this was the first time I have one at a show... Too good to take to water in...







Some big boys Tonka Toys?



Not everyone appreciated the on site catering...



Surely an advert for Kurust? I must be getting too old to understand this (rat) look...



Not quite 'one direction' but the band had a few followers...



Finally for me a quick stop off at a local watering hole, then home...



Cheers Dave

Nice pics Dave, especially the quiet old pub shot with Sprint outside.

This shot somehow reminds me of the film Vanishing Point where he stops for some fuel in the desert, and Delaney Bonnie and Friends are playing. They're a bit older here
