Well It certainly was nice to have company displaying this year. Thanks to Keith, Gary and Steve (Greasemonkey) for joining in  .
Also a big thank you to all those of you who came over to say hello and have a chat. There was a lot of interest in all 4 of the motors, which was good to see.
Shame none of us won any of the three top prizes, but, hey   .
After all, what are the chances of 3 Land R***rs getting 1-2-3 ? Wasn't too much of a surprise to us. Really  , Honest .
Anyway, Once my pics have uploaded I shall get some put on here for all to peruse .

Nice to meet some of you... And I'm totally convinced Keef wouldn't notice his bumper go missing. It'd look so much better on my green SWB....

I'd guess because the Twistymobile doesn't like being too close to the ground & with the lack of a suitable AA truck.....
Some belting pics, will have to bum a lift down there next year

i'll start with the positives :- well done to our lads who showed their trucks...definately the best show from a club
they showed other clubs (that i'll not mention) up as other YD clubs semmed as if they couldn't be bothered 
so again lads hats off and well done....as always ITOC leads the way
now the negatives :- for a NATIONAL 4x4 SHOW i felt a bit ripped off at paying £10 for what i can only describe
as a car boot sale.
i thought they would have had alot more going on,maybe a few more of the bigger suppliers there,but all we got was a landy going over a see-saw......whooohooo,i personally would have had a few compititions going through out the day...twist off
challenges and such to keep the thousands of ppl paying £7.50 to £10 each to get in more occupied.there are plenty of clubs out there they could get in contact with to ask if they would be interested in sending some vehicles down to put on a bit of a show,maybe some big boulders and get some rock crawlers down...all just idea's
again this is just my humble view and does not reflect anyone else's opinion (apart from the other 3 lads that came down with me)
we couldn't even get any free stickers that's my rant over please feel free to comment
dont no if you managed steve but i did get about a 5 second window where no one was in way of your truck

They make it difficult to say the least for sellers to book a pitch ,maybe its a inner circle type thing.

i must have missed that stall rich....(sub concious telling me to keep walking)
but is a show of vehicles not a better advertisment
as for price/recesion (everybody's skint) i wasn'y there last year but i bet the entrance fee's still the same
