Thank you so much for all your good wishes for a really pleasant day out for us
We went to see the Formula One Grand Prix at Silverstone on Sunday and it was fabulous.
There was a little rain towards the end but it did nothing to dampen the atmosphere
The race was exciting from start to finish and Lewis Hamilton won and the crowd went wild
This was the view we had of all the action as they lined up the cars on the grid and a perfect view of the lights calling them to action and then they were off.
We went a few years ago and it was really noisy but this time with the modifications that have been made to the cars it wasn't too bad.
Some crowd ... of very enthusiastic supporters all cheering for their individual drivers.
These are jut a very small portion of the people in part of the stand that we were in
There was food stalls everywhere and lots of places to buy F1 souvenirs.
Other races went ahead during the day, it wasn't just F1, and we watched some of them too.
Some famous faces included Jackie Stewart, Stirling Moss, Damon Hill, some of the Spice Girls and the usual faces that introduce the F1 on TV each time there is a race
This is the vehicle that holds the land speed record and it is very impressive and Griff was particularly interested in this
So yes we had a really good weekend and it was good to get back home again yesterday.
I am glad that my blog posts have gone out as scheduled ... especially my Tuesday Tutorial
And today we have completed two videos that will be with you shortly.
Next weeks Tuesday Tutorial is a fun card that I hope you will enjoy.
More tomorrow ...

ReplyDeleteI'm glad that uou had a good weekend. It was nice to see your pictures.
Hi Christina, it is amazing living near the British GP. We lived in Buckingham a few years ago and lived the whole weekend. We could hear the cars and race day brought thousands of the rich and famous in their helicopters to-ing and fro-ing. It's a fabulous day out, if the weekend is too much noise. Excited about new videos. X Ros

ReplyDeleteGood Morning Christina :) Wow! Wow! and Awesome! I'm happy the noise was toned down enough that you could "enjoy" the race. The pictures are fabulous! Thank you soooo much for sharing. Have always loved the red double decker buses and the red telephone booths. They remind me of Harry Potter. Looking forward to your new videos. Glad you both are home safe and sound. Enjoy a lovely day. Big Hugs.
