Piston Ring Greyhound

Today a small group of Vespa riders set out from Scoots in Fourways to the Piston Ring Club's monthly meeting in Modderfontein which is held every third Sunday of each month. Arriving there by mid morning, we joined other Vespas and Lambrettas but somehow got lost among the hundreds of classic automobiles and hotrods.

We strolled around looking at all the nicely decked out cars and the stalls they were selling all types of car paraphernalia. What caught my eye was this 1933 Ford 3 window coupe that had this awesome greyhound hood ornament gleaming in the sun. There was a sign on the windscreen requesting no touching. Never mind the car; it was the Greyhound that I wanted to put my fingerprints on. The silver greyhound was in full stride and my heart just melted.

Rescue Greyhounds

On my way home in the wee hours of this morning, two pork pies pulled me over but luckily I don't drink a lot and after checking my drivers licence they waved me on. Trying to crawl out of bed this morning was with some difficulty but the Toy Run was already on its way, also too late for BBC so my choice was made, the Sight Hound Walk at Delta Park, that was if I could get out of bed.

It wasn't a large crowd at this event but perfect as the large greyhounds were doing their best to run down the Italian Greyhounds but the agility of the iggies kept them inside their turning radius. It was interesting to watch as the Greyhounds formed packs and Maxy reminded me as an interceptor as he honed on a Greyhound that was on the tail of an Italian Greyhound. Here is Dean's four rescue Greyhounds who really enjoyed the smaller iggies.
