first time at the gathering me and the wife set off in the festa for an hours drive three hours later we arrived with a leaking head gasket so the car stayed in the camping field all weekend.
saying that though had a great time will be back next year but maybee mot the car more than a day before we leave
it did make it home aswell even if we never managed more than 50mph all the way

I had a great time! Picked my new car up yesterday from Aylesbury then cut across to Prescott. I just wish I'd got organised weeks ago and actually sorted camping out. As it was we spent an uncomfortable night in the back of our vans in a layby next to a petrol station down the road the only bonus being it was opposite a pub I was really enjoying the show today but my bent mate got bored so left too early. It's the first time I've been to the gathering since mallory park 4 or 5 years ago. To be 100% completely honest I prefer mallory but that's just me. Next year wherever it's held I'll make sure I book camping early. Thanks retro rides organising team for making it a great show again. Ross

My Friday and Saturday were both ace, Sunday was slightly marred by the Mrs texting me at about half ten in the morning letting me know we'd been burgled so I had to shoot off home... Was there a car alarm at 02:30 in the morning then? Slept right through it in my van :lol:

My first time camping was a brilliant experience, arrived late on Friday and threw the tents up in the dark and just chilled the entire weekend, lots of BBQ's, people and cars, good times ;D Had an excelent weekend, only slightly mared by some idiot playing mysic and setting a car alarm off at 2:30 in the morning. Damn that alarm was loud! I think it was coming from across the road, sounded more like a house alarm than car to me, not sure though?
