VW Whitenoise 2013

Earlier in the year we had hoped to go to Whitenoise to camp after a day visit last year but as we ended up with weddings booked in this weekend we were back to a day visit.  Plans for this were also cut short when our hirer's needed to return Delia earlier than expected due to work commitments.

So it was a late set off and we didn't arrive on site till nearly 2pm.  Now given that the show wraps up at about 4pm after the Show N Shine prizes are announced I was a bit miffed that there was no reduction on the entrance fee of £10 per adult & £3 per child.  With only two hours of the show left £36 entry is a bit steep!

Other than that gripe though, I really enjoyed the afternoon.  I would of liked longer to look round the stalls particularly the second hand ones as I love mooching round vintage bits that I really don't need but always end up wanting.  Sadly by the time we got to that part most had already packed up.  However we still found plenty to look at & buy!

 


Spotted this gorgeous 1950's vintage caravan but sadly it was a bit too expensive for me, it was up for £2100 & needed quite a bit of work.



We did however get this for my daughter, really I wanted it for myself but couldn't justify another bike as I already have plenty!  We've been telling her for years to get a bike to make getting around easier but she's always deemed them too uncool but this one changed her mind....

Show N Shine at Whitenoise was packed, but sadly I didn't get as long as I'd of liked to see all the vehicles properly and I left Dan on photographic duties but here's a few 

Dotty The Dormobile - she had sparkly cream paintwork!
