Well, it was great fun despite somewhat "challenging" weather!
Super-friendly crowd, best I've known at a festival, and a decent range of family entertainment. Highlight for me was Seasick Steve on Sat night, but there were lots of other great moments. We bailed on Sunday evening, not fancying either another night under canvas or the **** of getting out of the muddy car park in the pitch dark. But we'd seen all we wanted to see by then...
Even got to see a bit of the classic car auction, and there was a 3200 going through. A fairly tidy (but by no means immaculate) 2000 manual in silver with black leather interior, over 70K on the clock. However, it was incorrectly described as a V6 and compared to the hype for some of the old nails going through the auctioneers could hardly have been less enthusiastic, mentioning only the pricy parts and running costs!!
Needless to say it didn't make reserve, topping out at just over ten grand. It's funny, my dad goes to a lot of car auctions and he always reckons there are a few that get undersold because the auctioneers want them for a mate. Maybe this was one, or maybe they knew the vendor had set too high a reserve and so didn't bother. Ho hum.
