Bit late catching on to this one, as it's in its 10th year, and the last time it'll be held on New Years Day (there's also a summer meeting on June 2nd this year) but the forecast was dry so we made the effort this time... although it was a bit drizzly at times :roll:
But the weather didn't seem to keep anyone away as the place was as packed as I imagine it could be. Pride of place goes to the vintage (pre-war) cars and bikes, in the market square, and all others cram into what's left in the other car parks and high street. We got a decent place in the high street, tho I wouldn't normally choose to park on the pavement of a narrow road with narrow pavements, with the prospect of kids, pushchairs, mobility scooters etc etc squeezing between the car and the lamp post we were next to, for the four hours we were there... but as far as I know, we came away unscathed :pale:
Bumped into Skippy, Matt & Mandie and Ade Worman - good to see him and his Challenger out and about again :thumbright:

Great day out, even with blowing headers. I thought I'd seen most of the lovely things there, but missed the 2 Datsun Skylines.
Thanks for sharing Rob, except the scary pic of me. Do I really look that old??
