:: [ SVVS at the Blindley Heath Country Show - May 2006 ] ::

This was an invitation event where the SVVS was asked to provide some interesting cars for the Vintage Cars Paddock on the Saturday and the Sunday.  However the SVVS, being free spirits, were notable by their almost total absence. On the Saturday Mike Erroll was there for a short while with his XK120 and Bozi Mohacek stayed most of the day with the Rolls Royce Shooting Brake.  Otherwise no other SVVS members. There were a number of other Classics there as well as some interesting Land Rovers. Photos are by Bozi Mohacek. Please click on any thumbnail picture below to see the full size picture.

The event took place at Osney Lodge Farm and included a Real Ale Bar, Pig on a Spit, Ferret Racing, the Surrey and Burstow Hunt, Birds of Prey Display, Dog Agility Display and a total of some 60 Trade Stands. It was the first time this event had taken place and hence it was not overly packed. On the Sunday the SVVS was having a meeting at the Black Horse so again, the SVVS was notable by their absence. However in the afternoon after the meeting Bozi Mohacek paid a visit again in the Rolls Royce Shooting Brake and was subsequently joined by Messrs Derek Wright in the Rover 110 and Messrs Bob Drew in the Morris Minor. Shortly after they were also joined by Michel Gosset in the XK150.  There was some tasty food and ale on offer so the afternoon passed off comfortably.
