Where did you drive in your XK8/R today?

Where did you drive in your XK8/R today?
Prompted by steveinfrance's picture of his XKR convertible in front of a beautiful French Chateau earlier this week, I thought it was time to get out.
In my case less than a mile from home to Durham Cathedral:
Completed in 1137 (that's the date, not the time), it's a World Heritage Site attracting huge numbers of visitors throughout the year.
Wonderful for the visitors but it can get very busy when you live here and are just trying to get to and from work!
Early on a Sunday morning is about the only time to take a pic like this.

Hopefully this thread will have some legs, I can post a pic next to a cactus (blue sky guaranteed) in about October.
Car looks good Graham, I think the last time I was in Durham was an overnight stop on the way to Donnington Park in the late 90's maybe.

Back to Germany for your 35th Wedding Anniversary. I'll bet you wonder where the time has gone.

Drove from Alabama to Florida, sorry no pics, drove down at night and drove back up in the rain, took my daughter car shopping in between. Next time I go down I will get a pic in front of an irish castle.
PS: A Florida millionaire in the 70's brought a castle brick by brick from Ireland to Orlando, he ended up getting caught for fraud and the castle never got completely built back. The front is done, but the rest has been sitting for almost 40 years.
Oops, sorry, just realized I went WAY off topic.
