Did anyone here make it to this event this weekend?

What a fabulous event, for a great cause!

Travelled down from Leeds to visit with the kids, had a great time.

Wow, no, sadly not. How did you find out about if you don’t mind me asking?

I’ve had my eye on going for a few years, I used to be in classic racing and still see what Ten Tenths get up to (his racing firm).

It’s around the same time every year, some pretty spectacular visitors cars alongside around 20 of his own vehicles spread around the grounds.

He was very kindly posing for photos and signing stuff for the hundreds that turned up and parked on his lawn 😁

I popped along on the Saturday. Though I think I spent more time ogling some Ferrari 360s in the parking area. Great way to spend a couple of hours but it was heaving! Ending up getting lunch elsewhere as the queues were massive. Also watched a small child attempt access to the F40, Nick obviously knew to keep them locked! Even saw the man himself just walking about.

I missed this year's event, but have been to several before. Lovely place to spend an afternoon

It's walking distance from home, so I really should go - but I also heard first-hand that the crowds were huge this year (which is to be commended, as it is a charity event....), so I stayed away and went for a very enjoyable ride on one of my own Italian steeds

Top marks to Nick Mason and the crew though. Perhaps I'll go next year.

A former PH member who's handle started with Issac went, she enjoyed it very much, and got a photo taken with NM.

My eight year old tracked down the man himself for an autograph and selfie!

For a guy approaching his eighth decade, he’s got the energy, but I do admit to being just a little bit star struck by it all!

Where were the housed shots taken please, we went; busy as hell even though we got there at 10:00, but didn’t see the cars in the buildings… confused..

I arrived at pretty much 12 on the dot. Then took the garage photos at about 12:30. The garages were hidden behind the wrap stand queue! I didn't spot them initially on my first lap.

Thanks.

Missed them even though we went round twice. Bother..
