Are we meeting at the services prior to it this year?
Also, it is now highly unlikely that my car will make it now (unless a miracle happens) so I will probably end up bringing another old Nissan

Fingers crossed for the miracle.
I’ll be staying close to the venue, so I’ll be going straight to the show to set up the stand.
From 7:30
...and what time do they shut the gates ?
Is there only going to be me and Ronnie travelling from Essex then ? Won't be much of a convoy if its just him in a 13 and me in the Jaaaaggg.
10am says on the paperwork I gave you
10am? Thats a shitload better than the 9am you told me
Hope to see you there chaps, got me ticket off Paul yesterday

Some superb cars there this year and a great turn out on the stand.
Thanks for organising Paul.
Best cars at the show for me were...
Ferrari 250GT ? Nope.
Sunbeam ? Uh-uh
Alfa Romeo ? Close...very close.
Standard Swallow 2 ? I nearly cried. Superb in every way. The lines, the design, the quality and the cleanliness. Just utterly stunning in every way.
The work of Lyons and Walmsley who created SS pre-war then renamed to SS Jaguar then dropped the SS after the war for some strange reason
Fantastic day.
Thanks for joining us all

Highest value SXOC stand ever, including when we have had 50+ cars out? Probably
Great day out, highlight for me were the Alfa pictured above that was just left in one of the carparks, an ivory white DB6 Superleggera owned by the most average looking couple youd ever see and a "concours" F355 that wasnt quite as nice as the other one there
Stick us down for next year, cheers to Paul for arranging and everyone else for turning up

That wasn't "just left in one of the car parks", that was the individual contributors stand ! They have clubs one side and non-club cars on the other. For me, most of the best cars are in the individual contributors stand
There were about a hundred cars that were lovely that I didn't take pictures of. All the cars I shot were cars I'd never seen before in my life. Usually, that's 0 or 1 car per year. This year there were 5 !
I'm also quite happy with the quality of the photos from my £250 phone
We went wandering quite early and it was literally just parked next to some truck like it had just been left there, not in any of the rows or anything - we almost waled straight past it.
When there was a Lexus 430SC in front of the house and this parked in fairly long grass something had clearly gone wrong IMO

It raises money for charity.
