First day done and although the weather was dreich, there was quite a lot of interest in the tanks.

Thanks to Brian for providing the shelter and Chris and Paul for joining us.

Bonuses were chatting to a chap who used to crew the Centurion AVRE and finding that there's an M47 Patton a few hundred
yards from the showground. If the weather turns bad tomorrow, we might be able to head over there and have a tour of it :D

Sorry you couldn't make it Steve, hopefully see you further West ?

Today started out lovely, turned very wet but ended warm and sunny.

Not as many visitors as yesterday, probably put off by the forecast.
