Nice pics.

Quadcopter?

Attendance looks a bit thin on the ground, would have thought there would be more than that?

In them days we had to shout and I had a second hand Trophey and we wandered around and found a winner we liked

John are you sure that photo was from the first one I'm sure that must have been the second as we had the genie hoist that Ninnybobs provided and at the first one none of the marshals had high viz vests

Is this the start of a downward spiral of the NBO? I have not had the pleasure but would love to one day. Someone did mention that there was a lot of other shows on at the same time round the country, could this be the reason and rectified for next year?

Chris this is a once a year show nothing like japfest the only subaru show in the uk, a few traders+clubs from around the country and as many other subaru owners/enthusiasts parked in a field having a good crack having a bit of friendly competition among themselves and raising as much money as they can for the chosen charity for the year.The NBO for next year is already booked with lightwater valley and has been moved back a week so as not to hopefully clash with any other shows

Good to meet meet up Mike at the NBO been a few years since we last had a chat it was your user name on here which threw me as you used to go under a different name.
