Sunshine, point-to-point and competitive racing - a perfect weekend for AGA (apart from the missing trophy!)

Saturday - Coats and jackets were banished (well, left in the car) as we enjoyed Chaddesley Corbett in the sunshine today. It was a 'home game' for us with a journey time of less than an hour - easy, although Derek insisted on being on site by 9.30 so that he could bag a prime spot for AGA!
Juliet Minton (above left) was confident that AGA legend Billyvoddan would relish a bit of sun on his back - the AGA man was certainly all the better for it, although maybe feeling a bit lost without cap, coat and wellies! Charlotte Keel and AGA CEO William McGrath enjoyed their yearly catch up - the first one was in 2010, and as ever Beazo was there to capture the moment.
Christopher Marriot was also enjoying the warm spring sunshine, what a difference a week makes as he had to put up with rain, wind and lots of mud the previous weekend at Mollington for the Heythrop meeting.
Marie Hill from AGA HQ in Telford was enjoying a first ever visit to a point-to-point meeting with her family - she picked a good one to start with, and I have a feeling she'll be back for more soon!
