I was going to come along as a last minute thought (albeit without marina) as Harrogate is only 70 miles away and about an hour and half from me,i would have been there for about 1.30.. 2 o'clockish (after getting staff in to cover at double time) but a quick phone call to Ray this morning soon put the mockers on that idea.

So the first show i would have been too in quite a few year was a non-starter,typical bloody typical i thought.

I'm sorry that all the hard work was that you lads put in was taken away from you by uncontrollable circumstances.

we didnt know the show was off until we got there but we still had a good day.there was some nice cars about the village we managed to get parked in the main car park inside the main grounds.we left early as we had to go to shefield to visit some inlaws.
it was nice to meet rubythursday and catch up on how the nwcpwa york branchs marina estate project is doing.
