Yep, me, possibly Patrick, John (I'll probably be pulling his Esterel onto the site) and Martyn (LWB V8, I think you've met him?).

I thought I'd posted it on here, but looking back, it looks like I haven't :embarassed:

I did put it in the 2013 Shows list though HERE :cheers:

It would be great if you came as well Phillip - it's a 2 day event so I'll probably be going Friday some time; it's such a long way for me I might not be able to get there before the public come in at 10:00 on Saturday :neener:

Cheers,
Robin.

Well, it wasn't quite as warm as it has been, but probably more comfortable for looking around this great show :cheers:

Our stand - just me, Patrick and John with Martyn's V8 (& tarp city!)

My firepit and a goliath of a traction engine in the distance - you can see the scale of that thing by checking out the engineer driving it and the folk stood behind it :aaagh: :aaagh: :aaagh:

One of the line-ups in the ring - again, check out the size of the big one! Oh, and a nice steam car (Stanley Steamer?) on the right :gold:

And the opposite - this is what I want to play with, a little Ransome Crawler - this isn't a toy :gold:

Only 4 days to get ready for Billing now :stars:

Cheers,
