Thank you very much for a lovely day and drive today.

It’s so interesting seeing all the displays from the past, lots of which I can actually remember :joy:.

You are very welcome and it was good to see you and Nisha there and glad you enjoyed it. I also loved seeing a lot of items from my childhood and so well presented.

It was great to see everyone today for the drive and visit to Milestones Living Museum, Basingstoke. We had another fantastic turn-out for this drive and it was good to meet new members, Chen & Powl, who joined us for the first time and we look forward to seeing them on future drives and events.

Chen’s 2004 Roadster Coupe in stunning yellow and one of a very limited production run👍

Serena, myself & Gillian were the last to leave Milestones and we hope you all had a good trip home.

It’s been a week since our visit but… what a great day out. The museum is very well presented, just a shame that it made me feel sooo old, seeing things from my childhood. It brought back memories of my grandad tearing up newspaper and threading it on a string for the ‘lav’ at the end of the yard! Loved the sweet shop and buying my 2oz of dolly mixture and jelly babies in a brown paper bag… and so much more!

Thank you for organising!

Thank you for your lovely comment Gillian, the visit did bring back lots of happy. Even though I was tempted, I managed to avoid the Dolly Mixtures and Cola Cubes though😇
