The roller looks a treat, the matt paint sets it off just right. Looks like you and your Dad are having fun even if it is raining.

Thanks Glen for posting those wonderful pictures. It was a fantastic welcome back to the rally scene. Great show, great friends. The rain hamperd things a little on Saturday but made it a little more sociable as we all huddled under cover.
