Thanks for all you do!!!

Thank you, it's nice of you to say so, but my contribution to the event is simply to flag the dates on the forum and post pics for likeminded folk. Credit must go to the Earl of Pembroke who lends his home (Wilton House) to the event and donates the proceeds to the Stars Appeal charity; it just so happens that he's a petrol head with a rather nice collection of steeds including an 8C:

Me and My Motor: William Herbert, the Earl of Pembroke

As a boy, William Herbert, the Earl of Pembroke, was “completely obsessed with cars” and built a collection of model ones, including a Bugatti Type 35 and a Lancia Aurelia. “I think I had good taste in toys,” he laughs.
