| What an unusual day for this show the weather was FANTASTIC!!. We met at 8.15am as planned where six cars were eagerly waiting for the off. On the way through Abergavenny we had met Charlie who wanted to tag on with us so that he could join us at the show. Unusually for us we positioned onto the main field where Richard had greeted us and lined us into position. Once parked up, as
normal, we put the gazebo up which took no time at all. Because Phil had forgotten the pins for the bunting we had decided to attach it to the gazebo. Talking of pegs Richard had forgot the poles for his tent. We were not quite sure how he had slept the night before. The usual campers had stayed the night Brian, Silvia, Geoff, Sue and Bryony.
There was so much to do during the day. There were plenty of stalls, food vans, a small fair, and plenty of steam vehicles and classic cars. At 11.30am there was a presentation of a laptop for Bryony with other bits and pieces. She was so overwhelmed, with a few tears.
During the day it was decided to have 'The Car of the Month' competition looking at faults on each others cars. Unlucky for Kingsley we had started with his car. Pictures were taken so the evidence can be seen, any clarification of the faults please speak to him directly.
What a difference in the weather compared to the two previous shows where we had rain. As this was a two day show and some had decided to camp on the Sunday night ready for the show the next day. At 5pm for those of us that decided to leave we took down the gazebo and set off feeling happy after a wonderful day.
