Ambiguous thread titles and not clearly stating event locations is a common problem when people post advance notices about events on this forum and others i've noticed, quire often.
Some (events) give excellent details of were what and when, but others assume every body knows or is able to guess which end of the country an event is located from the scant info given, or that just posting a web site link suffices (as often they are sadly lacking in details when you look at them of were it is, requiring some hunting for the details on the site) . - The previous comments are a general statement about many events and not targeted at this one.
Back to this event ;-
The event at Cheltenham last year was good day apart from some of the car owners, who were obviously only there for a free day/weekend out, as they had no interest in the paying public trying to take photos in quite a few cases.
The layout of the car section was cramped with space left for the Sunday only brigade by the look of it when i visited on the Saturday.
Were as the steam people are very obliging moving out of photos, when they see people waiting and moving objects, or even the engine to let you get a good shot.
.
Shame there is no ploughing this year, as there was quire a bit of interest in it last year with some of the stubble on fire.
Was a decent turn out of tractors with a few more interesting machine as-well.
I'll see if i make the trip down again this year, if the weathers ok
