I went to Tredegar House for first time last week and saw your panda - love it! - plus a number of other Mogs. Sadly didn't get organised enough to show mine but what a great show.

Unfortunately I'm busy this weekend but where is the Festival of Transport held? Is it for pretty much any old form of transport and is it a regular (annual) event?

We are making a weekend of it and will be staying at an hotel. "Seek us out" on Saturday but don't follow us as we keep getting lost. :roll:

I'm on hols the last couple of weeks of July :D (end of term) otherwise St Fagans would have been a good day out. Might see if I can evade the (extensive) DIY list of the 'Her indoors' and head to Chepstow :wink:

Sadly the club meetings mid-week will always a 'no' as I spend most of my working week in London :(

Where are you and others based anyhow? Mine is a working car, for the times when I'm home, but I don't see many other mogs around?
