Thank you Steve for suggesting such an excellent day out. The weather was great and there was plenty to keep us entertained.

Regards,

Tom

+1. If I do have a complaint about the weather which Steve arranged for us, it was only that it was too good if anything. :D

I am still going through my shots for the day, but "Vieux Charles III" wins my prize for the car in the parade least likely to pass an emissions test. It had some competition, but nothing else really came close. The photographer in the background must have been left choking by the end of the event. ;)

Saturday was too hot for me (and I need to visit my local pharmacist for some soothing cream!) but It was an enjoyable day.

I'm still going through my images (over 400 of them) to identify the participants of the various displays but here's one you might like:

You can just make out Ron and Sarah was behind me buying a bottle of much needed water.

I'm glad everyone had a good time, despite the heat, and managed to get some decent photos by the looks of it. I'm still processing mine, but here's a selection - gradually starting to get the knack of panning...
