Great shots Andrew, looks as if the show was a great success for everyone involved.
Iv’e been told I may get a new Volvo VN when I return to work, but it wont be a patch on the new FH. I like the looks of it.
That’s pretty neat where Dai has Sons and Daughters following the family name.

Regards Paul.

I’m with you on this one Andrew, what a stunning looking truck. Many thanks for the photo’s, I will be returning to live in the UK shortly and will be looking forward to visiting the shows.

Great show, 319 trucks attended this year, with many new Retro Classics, quite a few still working. For me one of the best bits of the show was the Parkhouse family passing me a photo of my truck when working, what a find!
