Day 44 – Display and competition day at Killerton House then travel to Bath.



Day 44 – Display and competition day at Killerton House then travel to Bath.

It was a short drive from Paginton to Killerton House and gardens which is a National Trust Property. There were about 200 Alvis on display, a few people even looked at the MG parked at the back of the field in row "G" for the non Alvis moderns.

Kaye and David's Firefly at Killerton.


Alvis's lined up at Killerton - post war in front.
We were amazed at how many people we now know even though we have only been to IAD once before.  It was a great day however we needed to set off quite early as we had a long drive to get to Bath for our over night stay.  Once in Bath we did have some problems in finding the B&B but a couple of able bodied young firemen were more than keen to help - and get a chance to look over the 12/50.  They were most impressed.  In our round about travels in Bath we may have crossed the ancient bridge in the centre of town which is a big No-No - I suspect a fine may be in the mail!

Some wonderful old signage on the A39 on the way to Bath.
