September was the Month of GoodWood Revival.
A great chance to experience a vintage affair. With cars, planes, motorbikes, a shopping village THAT’S right village!!!(amazing) and much much more, including a vintage Kenwood stall and coffee shop! AHHHH my nirvana!
It also proved to be an extra special day as my partner and I got engaged.
