Basingstoke Festival of Transport 2010

[Manky Monkey]

It'll be good to catch up mate. Welcome back. 
No idea how much room we'll be allocated on the day, or what shape our pitch will be, but we're thinking probably a row of cars up each side, angled in at 45 degrees with the 2 drag cars on the front corners, then bikes front centre & trikes behind? It tends to be a bit of a free for all, with everyone just parking where they can, then us trying to shuffle them about to show everyone's vehicle as best we can later.
Maybe this year we should get more organised!

[BikerGran]

Og buggerit, I really can't miss this!  Any room for a little blue trike?

[Manky Monkey]

Oh, now you want to join our gang eh!
-no problem Bobbette. 
I'm sure we can get more vehicle passes if needed, (to be honest, we've never needed to show them so far. Everyone just says I'm with the Monkeys & gets waved in the gate). Can't guarantee we'll get a bigger pitch though, depends how much room the organisers have I suppose. So we may all have to budge up a bit.

To be honest, I reckon even at the speed I seem to work, I don't reckon my chop will be there, but the other two will be........................................you never know though, if I pull my finger out!!

What time to we have to be on the field?

[Manky Monkey]

All show vehicles have to be onsite by 10.30am, Sunday 9th May.
The Memorial Park, Basingstoke, Hants, just off junction 6 of the M3, follow the yellow Festival Of Transport signs, RG21 4AG.
The show runs from 11am till 5pm, but it's a public park, with half a dozen entrances & the show's free, so Joe Public can wander in whenever they want to.
Obviously, we're not particularly organised. It's just a matter of turning up, shuffling the vehicles around a bit to try & show everyone's off as best we can in the space we're given, then the day's your own. It'd be nice if owners can be on hand at some point to answer questions about their vehicles from the public, but we don't expect you to sit with us all day.
Go check out the rest of the show, browse the autojumble, buy a burger, play on the kiddies swings, look at the birds in the park's aviary -whatever.
Basingstoke town centre's a 5 minute walk away, so you can nip over there for lunch in one of the cafes -bring us back some donuts if you do.
