Llandudno transport festival,2-4th of may.

Tyne Tees Run,Sunday 7th June. Starting at Tees Barrage about 0900 to Bents Park South Shields.
Around 200 goods vehicles are expected.

there’s a Vintage Truck meet at Jacks Hill cafe tomorrow the 19th…anyone else going?

Its usually very busy and a good turnout for a free show, and food & tea etc at normal prices. Recommended and well worth a visit if you are in the area.

yes,a good selection of classic trucks yesterday,and some ERF’s :laughing: my favourite outfit was the Ford Transconti with the SA 400 on the trailer…or perhaps one of the 143’s :sunglasses:

Great turnout for the Jacks Hill meet yesterday, a good breakfast and hot tea at very reasonable prices, my favourite vehicles the Commer TS3 as normal… I spent many an hour as an apprentice on these… lol :smiley:

The AEC rally at newark show ground is on the 23rd &24th of May this yr ,it was very good last yr even though it rained on the Saturday .well worth going .

Does anyone know offhand whether any transport book sellers will be attending TRUCKFEST next weekend with stalls, and who they are? I’d be grateful for any leads! The website isn’t giving much away. Cheers, Robert :slight_smile:
