No, I'm not a regular there. Only ever been twice lol.

I usually cruise locally, parkstone, branksome, and the surrounding areas. Are you up in Talbot Village way by any chance? Thought I recognize the houses.. :)

Nice, like the original touches!!

Think I recognise the Astra in the background too as used to work in Bosvegas at the Sovereign Centre, by any chance is it lowered quite heavily?

Would be awesome to see the Cav out and about sometime soon, we have a regional meet thhat is in the process of setting dates etc.
