I'd seen the scarecrows but like you didn't realise there would be a car show, also didn't realise you lived so close Neil.

There must be a few of us on here that are quite local but we don't realise  I also found out this weekend that there is a Overton classic car club and even a Yank car club!! Scarecrow festival is every 2 years and the sheep fair is every 4 years,in between these events we burn a wickerman to keep our god happy  |

I'd love to share a beer with you Ben -if I leave now I might make it about next Tuesday!
As the Monkey map's been mentioned- it used to be updated by my ex girlfriend Tazet. Now we've gone our separate ways, I can't add more names to it. Anyone got the know how to reproduce it so we can update it with new names?
