Goodwood Revival

Dad and I took ourselves off to the famed

Goodwood revival race meeting this weekend.

 

Sadly I have an AWFUL chest infection, so am out of breath,

lethargic, and really LOW. But I dragged my sorry a*se out 

of bed and loaded up the motorhome and we left thursday

afternoon (intending to stay until Monday to see it all !!)


"Typical Matt" it was all a bit improvised, and less than organised,

but we got our tickets sorted, camping site booked, food stashed,

and off we trotted!

 

After 2 days at it, I threw in the towel and we came

home Sundayas I just couldn't breath, and the walking

was going to put to much strain on my poor old ticker

I felt...(No point getting this far post TX and kicking

the bucket just to see a few extra cars?!!)

 

It was an AMAZING weekend though with some AMAZING cars

to behold.

 

The costumes people wore were almost as impressive! I had a suit

for every day and got a lot of laughs and pictures taken of me !


(Not sure if it was people laughing WITH me or

laughing AT me though?!)

 

Either way I don't care!!

 

Here are just a few pics to give you an idea of what went on...

My fantastic helper "Helps" me warm it up, and sometime

he "Rides" it up the drive a few feet!!

About Matt.

My name's Matt. I was born with a congenital heart defect which hampered me in my youth, and sadly became a terminal conditon recently, and beyond the (amazing) care of the BRI-Bristol Heart team.

In 2008, my condition deteriorated, to a point I was happy to see Xmas 2008. I had prepared to die.

Then in January 2009, a late night phone call from QEH-Hospital Birmingham changed my world, when they offered me a heart transplant, if I could get there pronto!!

6 months on, after a rocky start, I am still alive, thanks to them!

Read on to see how my new life is taking shape, and my adventures to date!....

 

Matt.
