How good was that.
When VBH had a tear in her eye I think all who took part felt some form of joy to be part of something of this scale and the sight of those people over the bridges,road side and even in fields will stay with me forever.
Well done C5 for turning up and filiming it.

She was genuinely interested and excited, spoke to loads of people and even took her own pics whilst wondering around. 
In the latter one she walked around the garage just looking, before realising the cameraman was following her. 'Were actually you filming that?' she asked him

just watched it on Youtube, very impressive, really wish I'd been there, what a legend of a man.
Hat off to VBH for giving it the coverage it deserved.

Couldn't resist but...
This is Vicki marshalling me in...
On the aerial pic you can see the green wagon with the scottish flag on the roof two cars up from mine in the 'L'
This is my car (DBM bugeye with white wheels) behind her later on...
And then my lad spotted me in the background, orange shirt and blue coat...

Oops 
Words were hers, spellinj was mine 
It was the bit where she walked around the back of the empty bodyshell.
She got a bit 'lost' herself though,
I reckon the world record convoy was achieved on the inside lane of the M40 northbound approaching Jn 15, at least 4 miles worth!
