Below: The Le Mans winning Bentley Speed 8 thunders round the track at Cholmondeley. to a weekend in June, sadly to no avail. It still rained. This year proved no different, and as I drove up the M6, the sky got gradually darker until the heavens opened just past Coventry.‘ Oh deary me,’ I muttered to myself... or words to that effect. It stayed like that all the way to Cholmondeley and by the time I got there on Friday lunchtime, the ground was starting to feel rather soft underfoot. Thankfully, I had stopped off at the shops on my way through Crewe and invested in a pair of new wellies; it proved to be the smartest thing I did all weekend!
