Perfect weather for it. Give me a bright morning over a stuffy exhibition hall any day.

I missed Lamma due to COVID so was planning on going but I've got my VAT to do today and that's slightly more important

Christ that was hard work. All cat parks full but nothing to tell you that. So half got questing into the place followed by half hour queuing back out we ended up in Park and ride.
a sign on the main roundabout would’ve saved a whole load of hassle

Think it has far outgrown the venue for the last few years.

There were cars in the museum and in the field behind Thompsons mill.
People were abandoning cars in Murton village. More parking tickets coming.
Was anyone spending anything?

Was in a quandary as to whether to go to the show or go flying as it`s the 1st decent day for a while.
So decided best option was to fly over the show.
Wasn`t looking to buy anything anyway

I can see 3 parking spaces. I think we managed well, got down there for about 10am, a bit of a queue to get in. Car park marshalls were excellent. Left about 1.30 talked to a few people, managed to not buy anything new and shiny, and was given coffee and cake.

I would say for any of them, it would be a face showing day today.
If caught up with a number of people that I wanted to see today, but like a lot of farmers, I had nothing to spend. It's a great show and would be a huge disappointment if trades stopped showing.

I'd much agree but maybe it's farming in general at the moment
