As some of you know I have a quarter share in the Doncaster VW show which is now in its eighth year.
This years is this weekend at Parklands (old ICI site)
We’ve sold out of weekend camping but day tickets are £5 and you can stay all day until the last band finishes.
Loads of stalls, show and shine on both Saturday (clubs) and Sunday (individual)
And of course my part which is the music line up which is below.
Be great to see some of you over the weekend
Come say hello. I’ll be the bald bloke in shorts by the stage

It is well worth the fiver entrance fee. Plenty of things to see and music to listen to. Even if you're not particularly interested in the cars you will appreciate the work and enthusiasm the owners put into their vehicles. They are also a very friendly bunch and are always open to a chat and ready to answer questions regarding their cherished autos.
Plenty of things to buy at the various stalls, and basically a good day out, especially if the sun shines, which it promises to on Saturday. And even if it doesn't there's plenty of cheap booze in the bar!

Are kids a fiver too?

Thank you.

Thanks BB
Bloody busy day today. Totally sold out the camping so we must be doing something right.
Finally managed to get a beer in the bar after starting out my day at 8am
Cracking weather sat/sun👍🏼
-
Be there tomorrow looking forward to after complete washout at best part 30 quid for three of us at scampston earlier this year (more coffee vans than cars)
-
Come say hello-I’ll be wearing a pineapple shirt and be near the music
-
Couldn't see you but was a great show and excellent value for a family day out
-
I couldn't make it this year because I'm away at the moment but a mate of mine who went told me the show was excellent as usual, but the music could have been louder as it was drowned out a bit by Knockers' shirt.

Thanks for coming Turnbull and the nice comments. It was our biggest success ( you can’t really beat a camping sell out) and the sun certainly brought the crowds in on Saturday.
Apologies on the shirt as I ended up saving it for Saturday night😁
BB glad your mate enjoyed it👍🏼
