Truckfest Peterborough 2/3 May
Anyone fancy this? http://www.truckfest.co.uk/truckfest-peterborough
Camping is from Friday midday to Tuesday 10am, although I'll have to leave on the Monday afternoon - unfortunately no electric hook-ups. Cost is £76.25 for weekend (2 adults and 2 kids), including camping, fireworks and entertainment.

Just where are you going to get another adult and 2 kids from?
Or should that be another kid and 2 adults??

I don't think you'll see truck racing there as it's just a show.Bulwell Bongoleers wrote:Hmmm ... tempted as ive always wanted to see truck racing!
You need to go down to the A.14 or A.1 to see the trucks racing.

Alas no racing, but you should see the pimping they doBulwell Bongoleers wrote:Hmmm ... tempted as ive always wanted to see truck racing!


What I do find puzzling is, if you look at the gallery page http://www.truckfest.co.uk/gallery , there is a picture of a Wellington Bomber

Re: Truckfest Peterborough 2/3 May
Yep twice as many engines and twice as many tailplanes as a Wellington and John old enough to have seen both sorts returning from day (well night actually) trips to Germany as well.SimonV wrote:Its the BBMF Lancaster Did a flypast for them last year.francophile1947 wrote:Alas no racing, but you should see the pimping they doBulwell Bongoleers wrote:Hmmm ... tempted as ive always wanted to see truck racing!![]()
