Always nice to catch up.

Really sunny and one of the best weather days we've had for this event, and good to catch up with many old mates (not you DD ) and new ones too Although the chat and company was great for me the venue/show is limited in appeal for several reasons 1. Again, apart from the Ferraris and more pricey charabancs which were molly-coddled through the easy entrance , we were routed in down this half-mile long dusty windy track so when we arrived on stance every car was coated in dust and bits of dried mud. Since it's a car "show" and most folk have gone to a bit of bother cleaning up their vehicles I'm not impressed with this. Two years ago it had been raining and the upcast crud was so bloody awful I complained, and we seemed to get in the alternative entrance. 2. 30 mins before public opening time there was no paper towel in the WC. At 2.00 the gents toilets couldn't flush as no water was getting through - something they knew about when I complained 3. There's nothing for kids, no stalls, simulators, go-karts, bouncy castle etc. Someone suggested approaching Callendar Park in Falkirk which I think's a great idea. But I'm not that attracted to return to this venue next year tbh. There were a few double takes in store today - have a look at the reg. plates! Oh and sorry not to catch you jimbob

We did spot you Simon, but you were busy chatting to a few folk so we didn't want to intrude. Have to agree with much of what you say, we were watching a few cars coming down the rutted track and it did not look kind to them.
We made the decision to leave Amy-Lee with her gran and were very glad of that, as she would have been bored witless.
Mrs. Jimbob commented on the lack of stalls and the somewhat overpriced (even for a car meet) food. I heard at least a dozen folk comment on how empty the field looked too, I have a pic showing a large taped off area with nothing parked there.
The weather was excellent and it was a day out, but I wasn't overwhelmed.
Just to make the day really interesting, the clutch on my aging Citroën packed up on the way home and the new Cactus isn't due to arrive for another two weeks, so I now have two grouchy females in the house... I may not survive to get to another meet.

We waited in line for food, as we couldn't see a price list anywhere, when the lad in front of us was asked for nearly £14 for two rolls and two coffees we rather promptly decided to wait until we left the event and eat elsewhere. I just crashed the gears in to get home, the car's getting scrapped anyway so I figured it couldn't hurt. Carlisle to Cupar was quite a jaunt, that's dedication.
