Bah! If only I could make it (lack of funds sadly) as the auto jumble could possibly have bits & bobs I'd like for my Cav.
Maybe next year along with Gunther (my Cavalier)!

Of course, Sunday (the day I plan to attend) is also the day of the World Cup final. I think I'll be leaving nice and early so that I don't miss it!

Looks like it's going to be a wet one this year.
If it is raining, I won't be taking the LS, I'll take the CD hatch instead.

And yes that was my tents!
Just looked at the long range forecast for this weekend and its 20% likely of light showers sat and 30% Sunday so that's next to no chance.

Unfortunately it's VBOA affiliated clubs only when it comes to stands.
We'll probably meet up in the caravan area though.

Not gonna be taking mine now. Work is flat out and I'll have to work Sat to keep on top of it all. No time to clean/prep the car
Will be in the Saab I imagine (again!).
