Massive thank you to Luke and others

Luke, just gotta say mate, fantastic weekend.

I'm sure I will echo the sentiments of everyone to say a huge thank you for all your efforts to make the best show we have been to. My crew(even the non transits ones) thoroughly enjoyed the venue and the show itself. Sunday just showed how much effort you have put in to make it such a success. I bet you will need a holiday after that.

I would also like to say thanks to everyone else that contributed to make the weekend a success, the unsung heroes.

It was great meeting a lot of the guys, unfortunately I didn't get round to see everyone so apologies to those I didn't get to say hello to. A great bunch of people that made a great show.

Thanks Catdaddy for the disco tent, great entertainment throught the weekend.

Thanks to everyone that stopped to say hello, made us feel very welcome as we had no idea what to expect.

Finally thanks to everyone that chipped in a vote for my van, I was gobsmaked to win 2nd camper category...gobsmacked...I was suprised enough to win the mug on the prize draw as I never win anything.

Brliliant, can't wait for next year just give me a shout as both myself and the family would like to help contribute to the next show and give something back

And thanks to you Gurj for both the sound off and the PA set up, made it look very professional. Anyone any clues as to who the Video crew were ?
