Organs listed – 9
Showmans – 18
Road Loco & GP – 21
Wagons and cars – 5
Rollers – 8
Crane – 1 (sadly no-show I believe)
Ploughing – 3
Miniatures – 15
Fairground – 11
Tractors – 223 sorted by maker
Fire engines – 17
Classic caravans - 15
Vintage and classics cars – 219
Historic commercials – 205
Stationary engines – 139
Classics bikes – 212
Historic military – 94
Model tent – 78
Tractor pulling – 36

I make that over 1300 entries.
If you would like, I can point out the engines in the program which were no shows, but seeing as I am being classed as an armchair rivet counter - I don't think I will bother.
Maybe I will go and polish the engines in the workshop instead.
Anybody can put together a booklet of exhibits - but a useful one with correct information is no more difficult to produce.
I shall save my money next time.
