SNAZZY
‘SNAZZY’ and a green GT (which I assume was Al) in convoy just off the A11 on Saturday morning.
Sadly, I wasn’t in the 480 which is bloody typical!
I should mention that I live 2.5 hours away from the spotted location and was only up in Norfolk for the weekend. Good coincidence!

Re: SNAZZY
Spotted the same mini-convoy yesterday ...although it was parked outside our house so perhaps that doesn't really count
Good seeing you yesterday Sylvia & Al - and knowing that for just a few hours, our little corner of the village - indeed, the world - had probably the highest concentration level of 480s anywhere (4 within a few square yards)!
And did we think to take any group photos? Bother...I knew there was something...

Re: SNAZZY
Back from Elvington late last night. Pity we didn't spot you in your two tone, Oli, didn't recognise the disguise
Maybe I should be having a coughing fit - snazzy under the carport, sven in the garage, Junk in the orchard, Eva hiding in the carcoon and a queue of 3 rescues
Thort your front drive was down to 2 now Jeff, but dont worry, R6 will be in the gap tomorrow so you needn't feel too deprived !!

Re: SNAZZY
actually, yes you're right Sylvia - even with Snazzy & Sven at ours, your home still had 5!dragonflyjewels wrote: ↑Mon Jun 28, 2021 8:26 amBack from Elvington late last night. Pity we didn't spot you in your two tone, Oli, didn't recognise the disguise

Jeff - not even close my friend - 3 on your driveway is just not enough! And no, the last mortal remains of 312 in your back garden don't count!!

Re: SNAZZY
I know about that - I was there and contributing, and I totally accept that for much of the time there is nowhere with a higher 480 concentration than chez-Jeff
But re-read my first post: I was expressly referring to the few hours between around 4 and 10 on Saturday 26th June 2021

Re: SNAZZY
There are times I don't see that many 480's at Orlando's place.
(cars one piece that is - the ones in various state of dismantling don't count!)
