Veteran

This morning I heard the tell-tale rumble of a very old petrol engine going past the house. I don't know whether it was a rally of some sort, but around ten or twelve veteran cars went down the lane over half an hour or so. I went outside to try and get some shots but because they weren't all together and it was raining I gave up a couple of times and came back in, just in time to hear another one go by! A couple of hours later they all came back but again, not together, so I just managed to catch this shot through the window.

I can usually find out detailed information of cars like this by Googling the number plate but I couldn't find much on this one. I think it's a 1902 Wolseley, and that may or may not be a Mike Macnamara driving it. Certainly, he owned it and may still do, and I found a photo of him driving it in the London to Brighton rally ten years ago which could just be this chap ten years younger. But then again, it might not.
