Yes not got rid just temporarily absent whilst other things took my fancy for a while. Now that the children have flown ( ish ) , I've finished a tractor I was restoring and got a little Landrover ( Series 2a ex Royal Marine Lightweight ) itch scratched I thought I'd better get on with a little Caterham refreshening.
I've not actually driven the Blackbird for perhaps four years and that was only to be MOT'd so it's been sitting under a sheet in my garage waiting for my interest to return. I do fancy Mag 7's so considering that at the moment. Meanwhile I'm taking the old girl to bits ready for a respray.
Hobby wise I'm also into mountain biking up in the Peak District . Mostly around Ladybower , bamford, Hope etc. I've got an e MTB a Giant Reign which is awesome and thoroughly recommend.
So perhaps it is a SECOND midlife crisis!
Anyway I'm really pleased to be back and hope to see you guys soon.

Hi Neil,
great to see you back! Last time I saw you was from the passenger seat of your 7 as you gave a few laps of Cadwell.
Im not saying I was impressed but I now too have Blackbird #3.
Assuming your still in the East Mids, hope to catch you at a local meet
All the best
Rog
