On January 27, climatic disaster struck. The unseasonably warm weather meant that there was in fact not enough ice-thickness on the Masuria lakes, and hence our grand plan of “Dancing on Ice with Cars” had no chance. We will have to accept this as cosmic justice, a sort of Wiedergutmachung for the fumes our classic cars produce I guess
So instead, the most committed CCC members decided to venture into Masuria by normal road. A nice mix of modern cars (Jaguar, BMW, Aston, the fabulous Viper of Paul Blackman) undertook a 12-hour journey over two days.
