Re: Newark roll call
Forgot to mention Sadler! He was on the Lovatt Society stand (I think!) He is rather handy with the leather stuff and they had some superb sniper rifles on display.

Hopefully it won't be so busy for you tomorrow, just couldn't get to look at a lot of stuff today as couldn't get near it.spud wrote:Looking forward to tmoz when i attend Vince if you see this in time ill come and see you when i get there.
Re: Newark roll call
Good to finally meet up with Ovenpaa and Chrstel - with Dangermouse. I nearly accosted several ladies with striking barnets before noticing the FB hoodie!
Saw some old faces that I don't meet up with very often
Show very cramped in places and frustrating at times. Lots of nice shiny things there, thankfully resisted all tempatations.
Even with a list to hand, it's to get sidetracked.
It was ruddy hot in there, though.
Luckily found the cider stand in the craft (?) tent. Can't see a lot of fudge being sold, though?
Definitely one to remember as my truck blew up on the way home.
Luckily we got to within a mile from base before she blew.

I agree, it was very warm and crowded there.whoowhoop wrote:Good to finally meet up with Ovenpaa and Chrstel - with Dangermouse. I nearly accosted several ladies with striking barnets before noticing the FB hoodie!

Your truck gave up life?
Re: Newark roll call
Yup! Hole in the block.
Started clattering near Huntingdon. Thankfully got her as far as Stewartby before the big bang.
Luckily a friend gave me a tow back to the farm.
Now got to find new transport
Deep joy!

Re: Newark roll call
Bugger, sorry to hear that. What is it, is it worth dropping another lump into it?

Re: Newark roll call
Good to meet you & Christel too. Happy to assist with development but I'll say no more here until you have patent pending on it... :shifty:ovenpaa wrote:Attleborough, good to meet you and thank you for your patience as a development source so far!
All in all a very enjoyable day.
Had a good day too - walked what seemed for miles. Travelled up with some mates all of whom managed to purchase something from their shopping list so all went home happy. Could have done without the detour on the A14 home

Seemed very busy early on but thined after lunch - might go back to Sundays in future. Still some bargains to be had. :cheers:

No, it's an old Navara pick up, so heart transplant would be more than it's worth.ovenpaa wrote:Bugger, sorry to hear that. What is it, is it worth dropping another lump into it?
No desperate rush to spend on another one at this time of year, thank God.
Was due to go up to Snowdon to follow hounds next weekend. Lucky it didn't blow coming down the valley to Beddgelert :G
Anyone got any cycle clips :lol:
