I went today too. 
Met MarkL and MrNoisy Also Deasy and Psulli.
Too be honest i thought it was badly organised.
I ended up at the wrong gate because i followed the racecourse signs. The first sign i saw for Adventure overland was on the gate! No signposts around town or near main roads, very poor if you ask me.
Also the site was a jumble of traders and campers and i missed a load of stuff on the first lap. There was no real pattern with random corridors and dead ends. It needs to be in rows with a clear roped off area to signal it.
There needs to be an area that was dedicated and maybe roped off for the exhibition vehicles also.
There was a fair few traders though and selling the right mix of stuff too i thought so that was good. Needs more jumble i think.
Had a nice vibe though with some very interesting people and some very interesting builds there.

I believe i saw you heading away from the encampment.
If id have stood in the way waving like a #### you'd have thought i was a right wierdo.

You should of said!
I've got a 20L tub of DX3 ATF in the back of mine!
Ah damn! Didnt think anyone would be that well prepared
Did you get Tim's dog bowls that I left on your car? I think bump will grab them off you at some point to give to him.

Cheers dude.
That black Defender camper has planted a seed. One of my fave, feasibly own-able vehicles of the show.
Defender Interiors
