Quick update as its been a long time.

I took the mini up to Ardmore last weekend for single car sprints with the Jag Club (great day by the way). John was well enough to be let out from the spinal unit to come spectate for an hour or so.

It was great to see that big smile on his face again. He was in good spirits watching some classic machinery being thrashed down the old runway.

As an added bonus, the old strikemaster came out of the hanger, fired up and did a few circuits of the airport. Such a magic sound that old jet. Why is this venue not being used more?? - topic for another thread.

Johns plans to be home by the end of June albeit with the aid of a wheel chair and walker. He's been on his legs and looks like with some lengthy rehab walking again is not out of the question.

I'm also wondering if anyone has any pics of the Rentokil Porsche from the 73 heatway that John co-drove with Tim Bailey? We have Jim Scott coming to our club AGM in June so would like to jog some memories from him is I can.
