Had a great time, no doubting the highlight. Thanks to all involved.

Anyone know what the air display was for. I assume that it wasn't to do with the rally as there was no mention of it in the programme. Maybe another event at the house?

Congrats to everyone involved in the show - I had a cracking day!

Well, there were a lot of heavies on the gates on the way in today .I dread to think who was at the house! Fantastic once in though!

Ah, so the Goons In The Grounds aren't a Stapleford fixture then?

I gather that the Sultan of Brunei was there for a quiet weekend .

They were actually quality heavies , very polite , and could see the funny side of it . Apparently the shades are not standard issue . They complained that they have to buy their own .

But very CIA. I had a bizarre silent stand off at the gate, a total silence - no - you tell me what you are here for first - I'm not going to be the first one to speak - moment while facing two reflections of me with a gormless grin on my face. I thought Bagram would be the next stop for a minute ...

The joke was that they seemed to have come with a fleet of up to the minute Range Rovers , gray like their rather tight suits , which were smartly decalled " Discreet Security " . They were certainly not inconspicuous , so perhaps they meant " polite security " . I suspect that Lady Gretton would have played hell if they had overstepped the mark .
