Just come back from helping to set up the event field, it's quite dry underfoot at the moment, let's hope the weather holds up :)

Good luck with the weather. I know how much effort goes in to setting these events up (albeit on a much smaller scale)

Well it's still dry and windy down here, though there was the odd spot of rain at Beaulieu this morning, so if you can travel today I would say that's going to be your best bet. There are two areas people can shelter in, one is very large and will have the concours and ex works cars, plus some other attractions, the other has seats and tables (if we get to use the latter) so there is somewhere to chat in the dry this year :)

I can honestly say that I have never seen Hollands Wood this quiet ever! Just been up to Beaulieu and I must say it all looks really good. Now having a pint by the tent so if anyone is about I'm with the red tent and Mondeo!!

Cheers. Tim.

Not to bad at the show today, certainly much dryer than I thought it would be, no doubt there will be pictures posted at some point :)

Great Day out! Good to finally catch up with everyone. Weather wasnt the best but still a good day, massive amount of lovely cars to stare at. Picked up some nice rare rocker covers :D and a set of mk1 Cosmics for my next project. Though think I need panels first. Surprised with how many traders were there and also car boot traders.

Thanks for the pics. Looks like the weather was a bit of a let down again though.
