Well worth a look if you're in the area. The Memorial Park, Basingstoke, Hants RG21 4AG. Title: Re: Basingstoke transport festival 12th May '19. Post by: JayJay on May 11, 2019, 01:57:48 AM Anybody going? It's tomorrow.

Title: Re: Basingstoke transport festival 12th May '19. Post by: Manky Monkey on May 11, 2019, 06:20:38 PM I might. Or I might spend the day working on my own vehicle.
After, what, 12 years maybe, of having a pitch there, it's kinda nice not to have to do it, (not that I didn't enjoy it). I'll probably wander over at some point during the day as I'll still know people there & like to support local events, but this year I won't have to be there first & leave last :) Title: Re: Basingstoke transport festival 12th May '19.

Title: Re: Basingstoke transport festival 12th May '19. Post by: Manky Monkey on May 12, 2019, 08:37:24 AM I was thinking of driving down to Brighton for the vintage commercial vehicle meet, but it's about 2 hours drive away, so I should've got gone about an hour & a half ago! So I'll probably take a walk over to the Memorial Park in a while. That'll hopefully inspire me to spend the afternoon in the garage working on my truck :)

Title: Re: Basingstoke transport festival 12th May '19. Post by: Manky Monkey on May 17, 2019, 08:18:57 PM I looked for us but we weren't there :( Didn't seem the same without our crowd making the place look untidy.

Title: Re: Basingstoke transport festival 12th May '19. Post by: Manky Monkey on May 21, 2019, 10:04:39 PM It was still a good show, but I did think there were less vehicles there this year, (not just us).
