2011.
I really ought to be topping up the antifreeze in the car, wrapping presents and packing to go away for Christmas. I’d mentioned a retrospective, however, and it seems like a justifiable ‘over morning coffee’ activity. I’ve written a few words already (‘Progress…I think’ and ‘This year’) so this will just be photos.

Those of you who follow my blog closely (I may be flattering myself unduly here) will note that I didn’t mention the RB67.
