No worries Colin. As it happens I’m not going to be able to go now, I need to go & deal with a bit of a family issue tomorrow.
Hope that you all enjoy the show, try not to get too burnt, if it’s anything like today it’s going to be a hot one. I’ll catch up with you all soon, I hope. Dave |

Sorry to hear that Dave. Family always comes first.
So the canopy is up and the pitch is the first one of the middle row of club stands. You can't miss it as you come round the side of the little building with the site office, onto the field. It's a big Red Gazebo. Grumpy and I will be there at 9am, so roll up when you can and enjoy the show.

Sorry I've been a bit quiet but I've had family stuff to do too.
Hoping to arrive around 9.30 though, in a small convoy of myself and Dukedesmo. Well done and thanks on the prep guys .. top job. Should be a stonker again this year. Its usually good, but even better on a hot, sunny day. See you tomorrow. |

So I arrived nice and early... A little before 9am, and got the shock of my life! I'm not sure I will ever live this down, Utopia was there before me!!..
Great to see everyone of course. We had 11 Monsters on display I think, and some very nice ones too. An impressive display. Well done chaps! Great to see Doggy up from Kent and also long time member tonygixxr for the first time. Hope you liked us Tony and will join us for breakfast some time. Roll credits.. Thanks to Capo for the loan of the canopy, George for helping out, even though he's not a Monster owner, Grumpy for transporting the paraphernalia and putting it up on Sunday. Special thanks to Sarah and Ally for diving in and transporting the said paraphernalia back to within striking distance of my parish, thus saving me a lot of chasing up and down the old Downham Market road. Finally thanks to all of you for bringing Monsters, being good company and putting on a great show...

No lack of colour in the school playground.
Only ever seen 860GTS before but it was clearly made as a 900 too. Not my favourite Ducati styling, but I wouldn't kick it out of bed for farting! The very Grand daddy of the belters.

What a cracking day.
Blue skies, more unusual bikes than you can imagine. Everything from an Indian 1930's model 101,not the oldest, but in my eyes the most impressive. Never been restored, ridden regularly. To the point where the Indian head logo has been worn away on the petrol tank! To modern electric bikes. Great to catch up with everyone, and as Gazza mentioned, a big thank you to every one who turned up and mucked in. I hope everyone one arrived home safety.

We got our picture in "Your Local Paper", with my Monster centre stage and Jeff looking a bit camp..
My other club was also featured. https://www.yourlocalpaper.co.uk/201...aring-success/
