In case you are undecided what to do today, the weather here in Picket Piece is nice and sunny (at the moment!) and there's already all sorts of vehicles going past!!

Kinda like this you mean!!! Didn't bump into you, but I was wandering around with three kids who weren't into it as much as me, so only stayed for an hour or so!!

Yes that'll be the one  ;D
Janie did say she spotted someone in a MMMotors shirt but didn't recognise you. She would have said hi but was in mid conversation with someone at the time. We did look out for you as we guessed who it might have been and looks like we were right. Sorry we missed you.

Seeing as you posted this on the website at 7:56am, I expect we were one of those passing you!  In a blue/black plymouth savoy, 1955.  Arrived on site about 8:10am.  It was chilly and misty to begin with, but by the end of the day we were all comparing sunburnt red noses and foreheads.
