So...

Just a thought...

Should we set up a Def2 coffee stop for future events whereby somebody sets up a serious urn / kettle and you can simply drop by and (buy something) whilst claiming your Def2 coffee?

Honesty pot there for any contributions to the fund?

Anyhow, back to the original post and tone of the thread, I found a set of lights for the Tornado, brand new including wiring for £35 and a swing-away wheel carrier (which needs a bit of a weld...) for just £20...

Sold some stuff, bought some stuff, met some folks and had a good day but have a horrible feeling that it may be getting to the point where you need to be in on Saturday night for a decent spot!

Oh... And how come pre-booking means you end up in a LONGER queue than those who pay on the day...

There was no subliminal message in the earlier post but anyone is free to drop by (and buy something) at the next Newbury sort out!!!

Rolling with laughter

Yes had to smile with the entry today.
They were trying a different way to get people in off the road me thinks, but we all ended up queuing in the usual place afterwards anyway. Except me as I was escorted by marshall to front of queue to create a second line. Was amusing watching others still queuing whilst I took a wander round and also as people left as rain started.
Then they decided to open the other gate ! Thumbs Up
The new barn hasn't helped with the organising of stalls though.

The new barn???

Oh, I have soooooooo failed today!

As I read your post, I realised that there was, indeed, a premium rate to go 'inside' but never actually went in there today...

Oh, the bargains that I must have missed...

Must try harder next time...
