Hi Dave, the vintage cars were taken at Glamis Castle (or better known as Glamis Extravaganza) it's run by the Strathmore Vintage Vehicle Society. There is also Yesteryear which as it suggest is more geared towards agricultural vehicles but it's becoming more and more like Glamis (which covers all types of transport). Both are a good day out! Yesteryear is later on in the year, where Glamis is the second week in July. (usually)
oh wow, that little diddie down there is a poem :)
That's so cool how that happens-of course I need to finish it
Stoppin By To Wish You Peace, Love & Inspirations

I don't mean to wave my own flag, I just feel very confident about this book & of course extrememly....extrememly hopeful for it's other road trips this year.
