      Lovely finish, and a lovely sentiment as well.

                  Great pictures Steve. Reminds me of the time my parents took three kids camping in an Austin A40..... :smiling3:

                    VW turned out nicely and great photos of you and your family. Especially love the mini and photographic evidence that "Herbie rides again"

                      Had a Beetle way back when, a bit difficult to get busy in though!:confounded:

                        Thanks - It is amazing what they managed to cram into such small car with a 500cc twin cylinder engine ! This is me and little brother tearing round the campsite driven by Mum ( our tent in the background )
