Broadlands 2009 (Hampshire Pageant of Motoring)

Post by Admin » Fri, 04 Sep 2009, 7:41 pm

A big thankyou to Justine and Neil for putting on the stand at Broadlands this year. Although it was £10 a night to camp, very wet until Monday lunchtime and extremely :shock: cold on Saturday night, it was still a good show.

Oh, and the pubs in town aren't bad either. Apart from one which had the worst cider I've ever tasted. :x

Cheers Mate,

also the first time i've had a puncture on the Portafold!

Must admit i wasn't sure if that was cider or they were still cleaning the pipes out :shock:

And the vodka and coke was as bad!!!!


By the way did we go to the pub? :lol:

That was a terrible pub, The Tudor Rose in Romsey, should anyone want to avoid it.

Anyone who serves Cider that bad should be shot. :x

What a load of banjo players!
