I'll echo what Robin has stated, especially with reference to "The event was fairly well attended, but not as busy as we've seen before."
Indeed, I feel certain we only won the Best Stand as no-one else was there.
This can be confirmed with the following 4 toes.
It was probably nothing to do with Captain John (impersonating a slightly older Bradley Wiggins) showing hundreds of 'people' the benefits of owning a Land Rover Classic Camper.
Fairly idyllic location for a family of four (carawagons, natch)
After copious amounts of various types of pear cider (and a particularly rare and deer brandy), we all went to sleep counting hinds. It must have been our Stag Night. Sorry, I know what you are saying... 'Deer me!'
This was the stunning view from my carawagon window at 7.00am, before emerging at the perfunctory 7.30.
All four set up with military precision. John ...Wayne's...
was draped with camo netting later on, and was virtually invisible from a distance. Robin's on the right looks all new and shiny.
Patrick's looks very groovy on the left. Mine performed so well, it was able to take a bough
This was taken on Sunday, the day of the show, and clearly shows we were the only ones there.
Neil, Freda and Alice were nowhere to be seen. Indeed, Freda could only be discerned passing from a waft of her 'splash-it-on' eau-de-cologne, apparently distilled from a rare and deer brandy.
Our noble efforts were rewarded, as Robin states, with the Best Stand followed by a costly fireworks' display
(actually, it was too f**kin' deer)
Our much-travelled Commander-in-Chief's Iraqi uniform left a little to be desired.
But as his daughter remarked, 'I do like that Baghdad'
On Sunday a large friendly family from Leeds did not set up next to us with their two Series 88's. They didn't bring jollity to the party, nurse a conflagrated Donny chap who'd set fire to himself, nor pass out cakes which yours truly couldn't eat anyway.
At the end of the show which only we attended, it may be noted that Mr Ben has found a new temporary home, as
sadly I will not be available for shows until next month, when normal service will be resumed.
