    No replies eh oh well just a little post about the weekend
    Arrived Friday afternoon having had light rain most of the way,It stopped raining friday night which led to a nice and dry saturday apart from an icy wind that cut into you
    the show itself was really busy with loads of traders and exhibiters on hand to relieve me of my hard earned,ended up at the George Whites bankrupt stock stall bought a Hien Gerrick gortex jacket for £35 yep £35 a few dirty marks on it but perfect in evey other way
    picked up a few bits and bobs too
    Saturday evening was spent in the club marque where the beers flowed and lots of the usual banter and p*ss taking was the order of the night.
    we all got a nice surprice when a local lad turned up with a big pot of stew and jacket spuds he saw the weather and thought we might need a hot meal very thoughtful of him
    sunday the wind and rain returned,it was still busy but no where near like saturday but most of the visitors had had enough of the rain by midday so we broke camp and headed off home,it was a Interesting ride home not so much the rain but the strong winds made it hard work
    All in all another great owners club weekend dispite the weather I enjoyed every minute of it

    Normally go to this, but to be honest all the prices have gone mental due to dealers from Europe buying Brit bikes/spares at silly prices!
    I have been looking for a Brit restoration project for a few years, but it seems like even a basket of bits goes for a few grand at Stafford:-(
