Prescott Hillclimb; The M5; Gheluvelt Park, Pitchcroft, and Britannia Square, Worcester; and The Lido Park, Droitwich: Saturday, 25th - Thursday, 30th April, 2026.

 

Spring has sprung so early this year that there is no 
blossom on the trees.
But the leaves are green and the sky is blue.
So all's still well.
One hillclimb bolide ready for its close-up.
Not exactly hanging about:
Will Hall - 4 Litre Gould GR59J.
Wallace Menzies - 3.3 Litre Gould GR59M.
It's 1:45 and time for lunch.
Dum-dee-dum-dee-dum.
The blossom may have gone.
But there are thousands of Bluebells.
We can see the Malvern Hills on the horizon.
But you can't see Prescott from The Malvern Hills.
