    Glad i felt well enough to attend, heared it was bad Saturday but that was some downpour on the Sunday, cracking sweetshop display, worth the wait till all was right, good bit of Homeguarding on the gate with teacup and sourcers very upmarket, Kids drill in the marquee was a stroke of geneous best moment was the iniciative test to Sam and James to get four cups of free tea from nowhere armed with the teapot they did it with knobs on priceless, [tea on the gate was £6]
