I don't think he was responsible for the burnt rubber!
Next up was a chance to play at being James Bond as he took to the wheel of an Aston Martin Vantage.
And finally he was allowed out on his own in a little Formula Renault.
Which I managed to capture on video!I don't think the Stig has got anything to worry about just yet! And me... well I was just happy to watch with my bag of knitting at my side.
We finished off a lovely day with dinner at the village pub when we got home... a perfect day if I hadn't managed to fall flat on my face on the pavement on the way out! I was lucky to escape with only grazed hands and knees and a few bruises... I know I'll take more water with it next time!
Boys and their toys, eh? I bet Stuart enjoyed his treat. Glad you didn't do too much damage with your fall. Not exactly the perfect end to such a perfect day.
ReplyDeleteSpuds like a fantastic day out except for the end. Glad your ok.
ReplyDeleteSorry meant to say sounds. Wasn't wearing my glasses!
ReplyDeleteWe're off to see the Renault World Series at Silverstone in a couple of weeks - very excited. Can't believe you got to drive such cool stuff!
ReplyDeletePoor Gina - if anyone asks you how you got your injuries, tell them it was a motor racing injury.
ReplyDeleteAnd tell Stewart he doesn't need a Porsche, he's got a Ferrari. (I just wanted to be the first to say it!)x
Laughing my head off and thinking what a marvellous time you both had! :O))))))
ReplyDeleteOw ow ow on the poor knees.
ReplyDeleteAnd you known there's no way I'm showing this post to Rupert ...!
Oh and I thought you were going to tell us he WAS the stig.
ReplyDeleteOuch! You poor thing! I hope Stewart has been rubbing your bruises better, gently! What a great day out though.
ReplyDeleteOh no, I hope the knees are better.
ReplyDeleteAndy was passing by and immediately wanted to know what you'd both been up to. I bought him a rally day there a few years ago. It looks like serious and very fast fun x
Looks like every mans dream day out!
ReplyDeleteHope you're none the worse for your fall.

Laughing with Angela and her typo! Seems like Stewart is having an extended birthday, in a lovely fun way too. Shame about your fall, get better soon.
ReplyDeleteHope you're ok. No hurting yourself just before the start of semester! Hope to see you on Induction day.
ReplyDeleteJust a thimbleful....
ReplyDeleteOh you poor thing! I HATE falling over it is an awful feeling. I hope you are taking Arnica for the shock!!!
What a fab day out - if you like cars!!! ;o) I would be happier with the knitting! Sorry to hear about you falling - that's horrid. Hope the bruises heel quickly. Lucy xxx
ReplyDeleteHope you don't feel too sore by now.
ReplyDeleteoohh that looks like great fun! Hope your bruises don't last too long, bloomin wobbly pavements :-)
