Renactors aplenty
Harvey fitted the 1940s theme well being first registered in 1932. Our friends John and Gill Hinson brought along an altogether bigger vehicle - an ex Isle of Wight 1936 Dennis Single Decker bus.

Late in the afternoon Nick Hewer (of Countdown and The Apprentice fame) came into the vehicle park with his Austin Seven Tourer. He lives locally.

We had a great day and also enjoyed the drive to and from the event. Going was much quieter and we didn't cause any traffic problems but coming back the slow climb up the hills to Grafton Regis meant we had a good tail back of following traffic by the time we turned off the A508 to our village; Harvey rarely gets to 40 mph. However, most were patient and gave use cheery waves.
