Great day. Huge thank you to Angus and his team and Steve for organising the trade stands

Cracking job

Just wonderful to see so many old and new faces. Forgive me if I missed you. We’ve also raised a lot of money for charity today which makes things even better - news of that later

Agreed, thanks Angus and team. This should be a regular feature in the calendar. A good spread of stuff for sale, good to see your workshops/work in progress and good coffee and bacon rolls.

I managed to sell all the DDK calanders and gave Steve Screaton just over £30 to put towards the Charity.

What an excellent day.
Much enjoyment meeting friends old & new, and thanks to the sellers who gave me great prices on stuff I didn't realise I needed to buy :lol:

The only downside was realising how much I could have saved against buying all those new parts if this had happened 6 months ago !

Thanks to all who made it happen and to those who attended and made it such a social occasion - looking forward to the next one now.

And the one that got away today.

I saw a lovely ADACS badge on this stall, the one on the bottom left.

Image

I asked the price and was about to buy it, when someone who shall remain nameless (thanks Neil) helpfully suggested I should check out some others on another stall before committing. Wise advice. Except they were not so good, and by the time I walked back over the nice one had gone.

So if you’re the lucky person who bought it, and fancy moving it on for a good return feel free to PM me!

And the one I did manage to buy from Helen (nice meeting you Helen). Can’t wait to get out and drive it.

Excellent day- Angus and the Greatworth ream great hosts- Steve's trade stand organization- traders from all over with great stuff........ if you didn’t come you missed out!
Great to see familiar faces- put more faces to DDK names- and meet new folk.
And we raised lots of money for charity
Make sure you make it next year.....
