    Is it any good? I'd forgotten is was on and I'm working today and Sarah has invited friends for lunch tomorrow :mad:
     
  11. It's a full day out and as you gathered it's way to miss things yet find other bits that you didn't know even existed. There are a lot of modern cars in and around old, old classic cars. Well worth a day.
    Photos from last year as I've not around to doing them yet from yesterday.

    Cheers jono, I'm now trying to think of valid reasons why I should go and not be sociable having lunch with our friends :)
     
  13. Take your friends and buy them a sandwich and cake. Win, win.

    One of them had a Morris minor work van until recently so maybe that's the one to try and sway :)
     
  15. Ooh take them to the Morris Minor Club stand. Win, win, win.

    £24? What was your fave car? Did you buy anything? Driving gloves? A mug?
     
  19. Not been for around 5 years - still recovering from the exorbitant parking charges - which don't seem to happen for other shows there. Think I will go on the train next time.
