Yeah the dust was ordinary, mind you if the wind was blowing the other way it would have been OK.

We copped the dust too being right next to you lot.

I think I liked the other site better, although my wife reckoned this site was better

The club that won, well done to them, I did not even see their display, whilst looking around.

I think though this show is for old school and not at all suited to our club. I will attend this show as a spectator but not again as an entrant as I do not feel we gain anything with our input and effort.

Well done to the entire event and all of the people who helped organise it in such little time. Especially not having a location untill the very last minute. I'm much of the same view though about the show and us partcipating in it. Might be better to spectate, as it took ages to get around to seeing everything there. It is definately a fantastic show for the old schoolers though and anything with a little nostalgia attached to its history. Great turn out of all makes, models, trucks and bikes. I did like the size of the show. The layout will need to be arranged better for next year. It was a lovely day out for all enthusiasts with a little something for everyone. Even the vintage plane doing loops and dives around the show was great to see. Well done to all including the winners o all categories. Pics to come tomorrow.

I had a look too and you are right. Most likely the photographer did not want to get dust in their expensive camera and so stayed clear of the orsm ford cruises dust bowl display
