as you can see by mid afternoon it was almost completely sunny although the day had started overcast. Not really sure what to say, best bus rally I've been to for content and quantity, even age profile - in ages, really enjoyable, great atmosphere, lots of people but the only problem was that they weren't really spending which if you've travelled down from Cheshire is a bit of a turn off. Anyway we got some filming done at Oxford Saturday, oodles of 10 reg buses there, millions of foreign kinds in huge groups blocking the pavements plus it was degree day, reminded me why we usually do Oxford in the winter, oh well. We then tried reading, should have know better then Slough, oh no why did I bother with that and then on to the slum, sorry Travelodge at Four Marks, so no marks for the inn at 4 marks. The pub, the windmill up the road looked to be going bankrupt, dirty toilet but food was fine and reasonable price but didn't take any sort of plastic, nearly a problem but we scraped shekels together for that. We had a scout up the road to find the rally site on Saturday evening, went to bed early, yet another night with no major knee problem, hurray I hear the world say. Got my appointment material through for the knee consultant so that ties in , ah well. It was good to see the usual crowd at Alton, guess it was Hampshire, never really studied the map, really interesting vehicles and lots of people you know makes it a comforting, warm feeling even when you aren't doing well, mind you no one seemed to be breaking any records, I would have taken my South eastern photo stock in retrospect plus some southern archive material to make a splash. Home in good time at 8pm, really need a shower , always feel grubby after a dusty day in a park!
