Is anyone going to this one:

We hope to be going here (just as visitors though), and will probably be going on the Saturday, although the weather might change this; so if you want to say hello just let me know.

Hi Geoff,
We'll be there both days with an Anglia 105E Deluxe and an Anglia 123E Super. Don't pass without saying hello.

Great to meet Geoff, wife Margaret and dog Charlie on Saturday! Don't get chance to meet many off the forum being so far south!
Then Saturday night got chatting to some vintage caravan guys in a chippy in Ledbury and it transpired it was Youngvanman & co! Had also been talking to his dad earlier at the show. Great to meet you fellas too.

Great to meet Andrew, Debs and Andrew's folks, not to mention seeing a couple of superb Anglias in the metal. 
Here are a few pictures to give a flavour of the event, I hope you'll excuse me for the majority not being cars:
Andrew and the family Anglias:
Delightful vintage Morgans, family and sporting versions (just noticed the caravans in the background, sorry I missed you Youngvanman, I will keep a look out at future events ):
Of course as it was a steam fair there was a good selection of steam vehicles
Fabulous Burrell Showman's traction engine (Lord Lascelles):
I liked this roller very much, it looked just as if it was returning from a day's work:
Had an interesting chat with the owner of this 1931 Foden Timber Tractor, originally owned by North Riding County Council for hauling roadstone:
There was an impressive display of commercials. Some of my favourites.
Albion:
Bedford tipper with load (O series?):
Nicely sign-written Ford Model A pick-up:
We both enjoyed the working areas, one of the best parts of the event:
Threshing:
Steam Ploughing:
Sawing timber, with AEC Matador and Militant helping:
Finally, oldest tractor was this International Titan. I'm not sure of the year, but it is the direct ancestor of all the classic tractors around it:
I hope that you've enjoyed a bit of variety

You're right - from your pics, a nice wide range of things to see - I suppose you could say something for everyone!
Nice shots, by the way, hope the weather was OK!
