The grass dancing was good fun. Must have been good to watch it as some of the parking attendants did lol.

Got there at 7.30am, left at 4.30.....by that stage my son (8) was knackered....and so was I to be honest!! Missed a few things, including you lot! But a top day out. Not cheap but very well organised which makes it kind of bearable!

Some pics in the "photos" thread.

Porscha! · 07-12-2008, 05:42 PM

Fun times

I love rally cars, lol.

Very O/T but isn't it illegal to have numbers stuck on your car, on the road? If yes, why?!

cant believe i missed the stalls full of veyrons and other supercars

booforty · 07-14-2008, 04:51 AM

Shame mate, we did the supercars first thing before doing the hill climb... Quite an amazing range of cars on show. There's always next year!

I know the feeling!! Although we did see the supercars, we never made it to the rally stage - little 'uns legs were complaining! Also, didnt really have the time to spend looking for drivers etc etc...but hey, at least we went, and we had a great day!! As has been said, there's always next time!!
