Thanks Byz -& Mrs Byz
I heard you couldn't bring the trike along cos a car was parked in front of the garage door. That's the sort of luck we normally have! It takes a lot of work to make it look as disorganised as that you know
Yup, piccies & words would be great, thanks. Bung 'em on a disc & PM me for the postal address in Guildford if you haven't already got it. Thank you.
Got your words Dave, thanks. Anyone else? Several of you told me you were new to the show & had never heard of it before. It's a completely free event, run by Basingstoke Council & the Thornycroft preservation society -Thornycrofts were a big local employer years ago & were still in the town when I first moved there. They built heavy lorries & transporters.
Obviously we were the bestest, most professional crew there
but did you enjoy the show? Did you actually get a chance to escape our little corner of it & take a walk around the rest? Did you have any trouble finding the show site? Or Basingstoke?! Would you go again, even if we hadn't turned up en masse & taken over? -Taz & I were one of the first onsite so took the opportunity to move the marker pegs & pinch a couple of feet of our neighbours' pitches
We were the very last to leave the club display field too. By the time we drove out the gate the litter pickers had been & gone, the marshals had all gone home & you'd never know we'd been there.
