Our first time to the 40's weekend, the weather was very good and we enjoyed it very much, it was very relaxed and easy going, nice there was no arena as there was no need for rushing about to be in the right place at the right time.

 

Show site was a bit confused did not seem to be any layout to who went where !!! no big problem if that is how it was intended.

 

Also several non 40's vehicles on the show ground, don't quite get this as we were advised of the conditions for the weekend to be in military or civilian period clothing with period vehicles ??

 

On the whole a very nice welcome show very nice talking to the public about vehicles and passing the time, well done keep it up.

There was a plan for the site but it always seem to go wrong!! as for the post war section most of these have been coming for years before wae rebranded the show so we cant realy kick them out,just keep them to the back away from the main part of the show,

Then you get the local mv group members who just turn up anway with more post war vehicles you dont need, and some mvt members who just want to line up vehicles!!!

We could do with a british reinactment group though:)

Hopefully the 4th Dorsets will be there next year! couldn't make this year because of Normandy, and last year the car went "bang" so fingers crossed for next year with the Austin K2 GS lorry
