This weekend there are three events I would like to attend but there ae only two days available.
Clumber Park is one event I want to get to this year as last year I remember the weather wasn't very favourable , another event is the Derbyshire Steam & Country Show at Carnfield Hall .
Also it's Sheffield Steam & Vintage Rally weekend but something has to give
I wish I knew more about the individual events so that I could select the two shows I would get the most out of , other than the Sheffield show I have no prior experience of the events.
Here's hoping the weather is good.

May I suggest Sheffield & Clumber? Would assume that these events will have more to see. Would be surprised if the Derbsyshire steam & county show has more than 5 engines...

I think the Derbyshire Steam event is a new show this year and you may be right .
The Sheffield show was cancelled last year so I missed that , I have been the previous three years and know it is a good day out .
Clumber Park was a non runner last year for me so I have no idea what it's like as a show .
It's a shame that Sheff' and Clumber are taking place on the same weekend , I imagine there must be engine owners that might have gone to both shows if they were to run on different weekends, I hope to be at two events whatever.

Thanks for the info'
