| A joint Pyrenees 4x4 Tours/Landy Rally/4x4 Overland Travel forum Trade Stand has been confirmed for the LRO (Land Rover Owner) Show at Billing Aquadrome, Northampton 15-17 July 2011. Pitch C3 - (right at the end of River Road, the side furthest from the main entrance) so to any members of this forum, or former, present or future Pyrenees 4x4 Tours customers or Landy Rally teams, by all means pop in for a cuppa/beer/chat.  |

| A quick reminder, it's Billing this coming weekend. Make yourself known, the tea/coffee/cold beers will be waiting! |

| I checked it out online £15 on the day £12.50 in advance but with a £2 booking fee online you only save 50p so will give it a go and pay on the day |

| Missed you ... or did I? Do you know what, I met some many new folk over the weekend and was reunited with so many friends/aquaintences from the past, my head is still spinning.
Forum members, Landy Ralliers, those booked or thinking of booking with Pyrenees 4x4 Tours, total strangers just chewing the cud as they joined us in a beer. It was truly amazing, I'm only just coming down from it all!!!
Have to say in terms of contacts made and friends seen, it was the best Billing for many a long year - despite the on/off weather. Roll on the next one. |

| Forgot to say, did manage to see 4x4Overlander on his stand, but as per usual he was in full chat mode and I was on a mission to the loo (too much information I know) so that was that. Same goes for many other traders, never enough time to see everybody. I often think it would be good to be a regular, everyday visitor to shows at times, that way you could have a darn good look around at what's really out there. As it is the days just flash by. Good but not good - if you see what I mean.  |

| Not last year or this. Maybe next year but doubt it. They said it was "to let the grass recover in the deer park", only I believe there is more to it than that, probably financial I'd sumise. Shame, a lovey venue. Another one bites the dust!  |

| Thanks for that, I heard about Abingdon just before you posted. Seems that bad news DOES carry fast.
