The Plonkers are hilarious, seen them before!  They're also very good musicians though.  They take a while to warm up but once they get going it turns into a riot!

And do it I did.
Very pleasant it was too. You were right Bobbi, "The New Forest Plonkers" were great -very "Wurzels" ish.
Nice atmosphere. Felt like a show for the local community with everyone just there to enjoy the day rather than as a commercial, "let's make lots of money from the punters" sort of show. Nice.

I'd planned to carry on to the Dunsfold Wings & Wheels Day show afterwards, which was only a few miles up the road, but just ran out of time -I was enjoying the steam show too much.
