This weekend, I went to my Granny's 100th birthday party in Norfolk. Marquee, loads of family & friends, food, drink, and sunshine. Perfect.

I'm sure not all of my readers will want to look at the photos of the event, so you can look at some new shiny MG pictures instead ;-). In particular, the very lovely speaker cabinet custom-trimmed to match the existing carpet by

saffie1981's dad.

On Sunday, I drove to deepest Norfolk (Swanton Morley), for the 65th birthday party of John Carrick (distant relative). The other reason for the gathering was to attempt to get as many members of the Carrick and Bullard families in one place for a big photo.

Executive summary:
Attractive 17thC farmhouse[1], barns somewhat in need of repair, puddings, old family photographs (all but one of the ones I have included include my maternal grandfather, Sir Edward Bullard). I think this one shows that enthusiasm for cars from a young age runs in the family...
