It's queer af. You'd think people would be dying to be showing their cars etc.

I reckon some have literally died and the flat caps flown off to MG heaven; that and others are locked in their bungalows too frightened to leave because a wee virus might get em!

Speaking as one who is neither dead (last time I checked) or afraid of a virus I must admit I have not been to many car-related events (read that as "no car related events") this year neither do I plan to.

Fuel is one reason - I have enough for pure pleasure motoring (probably one of a decreasing number who still drive for the pleasure of the act itself) and to get to the rock and roll gigs I choose to attend. Weather is another - the fucking wind has not let up this Spring so far and I bastard hate the wind. Thirdly, I won't be herded - told how to park, when to arrive, whether I'm coming or not or get a "free" pass in advance.

We actually managed to get it started in 2019!

Really!? Outstanding.
I suppose it'll run on anything including expensive Worcester beer.

Merc, you need a 107 in your life.
Swap you for one of yours.

I'd love one as well:
