Sunday the 5th of August was a scorcher.... blue sky & sunshine in abundance along with suncream and cold drinks.
The biggest show of the year kicked off with a fantastic turn out & an excellent layout (Thanks to Sarah & Keith of the Northern branch.. the hard work paid off).
Most of us had put the time in washing & polishing our pride & joys on saturday which meant a quick once over was all that was needed once parked up.
After catching up with everyone we hit the trade stands with one thing in mind..... lightening our wallets.
As the sun got hotter & our faces got redder we spread out.... some of us taking time to watch the track action while others meandered through the club stands or took in the 0-60 sprints (if not joining in)
A few of us met up at lunch time and had a full on picnic... sandwiches cake, crisps... Kerry & Chris even shared their BBQ. We all happily roasted under the midday sun as we munched on our goodies (although it is hard to munch melted chocolate).
After the get together and good old chin wag we all split up & headed back into the fray. More shopping & photo sessions ensued as we made the most of the remainder of the day.
Last of all thanks to David for coming to find us... was great to meet you & I hope to see you soon (maybe at the next show).
I think we left at the end of the day... tired, burnt but extremely happy. It was great to catch up with old friends and have a damn good laugh... and making new friends too. Ford Fair has been a complete success and I cant wait for the next one.... I'm planning for it already.
