Although i wasnt planning on going, my 5 year old daughter was on day release from her maximum security reform day care so we made a day of it.

Hang on, this one looks familiar:
Duxford should be one of the premier UK shows, but it seems to be missing something. Not sure if it is lack of traders, too many Jeeps and Landrovers, or what it might be but i always go away feeling ever so slightly dissapointed. Maybe it is just me. maybe, making it in to a two day show will help. I look forward to 2010.
I got stung by the food prices last year so brought a packed lunch, drink and only bought ice cream. Tight git that I am. Highlight of the day was my five year old daughter's comment. Seeing Jeeps, MV cavalcade, or Spitfire and hurricane flying around seemed to have no effect upon her. However, going past a large sign advertising a beer festival, she shouted "LOOK BEER"!!! I expect a call from social services any day now.
