Hi

Aparently they have been cancelled due to water logged ground!

Cheers

Hi

If it is as wet as it has been today, on sunday, or tomorow, I may think differently about going, as it is no fun sitting in the car in the rain, especially when the roof and winscreen leaks. I may just go for a nosey in the modern.

I have been bought a new coat by work today, one problem, it is flourescent yellow, and very new looking! hehe

Cheers

Dave

Did anyone else here go?

A few of us locals had a stand there, comprising a grey Minor, my black A40, dad's Wolseley 1500, a wartime Jeep, two Chevy pickup trucks and a 70s El Camino pickup.

A member of the public came up and said that they've got some unused A40 bits on a shelf in their garage, so I'll chase that up soon and see what's available.

Overall a good show, despite the late re-scheduling. Quite a lot of horrid modern stuff on show (Sierra, Maestro, lots of Audizzzzzz, some new & recent Jaguars, even a Subaru Imprezblegh) and a notable lack of pre-war motors, but otherwise a good turnout of machines.

Hi

Well I never got there as you know, I was due to cycle the PF on this air ambulance charity tractor run, but I ended up deciding the wet this morning made that a little too hazardous, (I promise it was nothing to do with the 20 mile planned route! Shocked ) so I strapped it to the back of the fast track, a work friend drove that, I was on the passenger seat, and I rode it around nantwich when we got there, a good day really. We went around chorley, and allsorts, we saw alot of chomondeley cars.

Also saw a spoked wheeled rolling chassis for sale by the side of the road, didn't dare go back tonight as I didn't want to ruin my saving for the tractor!

Any pics Rick?

Cheers

Dave
