Sorry mate ive let the side down!

I didn`t take a single picture.
WE did go Saturday but didn`t get there until about 11am. I leapt out of the car like an excited school boy with a view to having a good look around first then going back for the camera. An hour later it was topping 30 degrees, the bastard thunder flies or harvest flies whatever you want to call the itchy little f#@kers were in plague mode! Now im not sure if it was the heat and or the flies but the place was lacking the buzz of last year not to mention the turn out being very much down so much so we caved in and headed home before 3pm! It seemed a lot of cars were breaking down or blowing oil on the track because of the heat - even Fireforce was nowhere to be seen!!! Yes there was still some sweet stuff there but most of which i had taken picture of last year anyway. I am quite gutted as i had been looking forward to this all year and we had weekend tickets!
I will still go next year though but maybe just for the day?

Sorry we didn't get to pop in and sorry to hear that the day was not as you expected. By the time we got finished in Wellingborough we were in no state to go anywhere.

I was a bit concerned that you were going to show up and wonder what the hell i had been making such a fuss about!
The mind boggles as to what you were doing in Wellingborough to be left in such a state?
