Right, Car now rammed with everything I need....

Time for a quick bacon sarnie before heading over....

We've had a little rain overnight, not a lot but enough to make the ground damp. Met office forecast is showing showers up until about 11 but clear from there on in.

See you guys later :th:

I'll post up a pic of the spot I get but I'm hoping to get a similar spot to last year, up near the dodgems just in case it gets a bit wet. We can get onto the gravel track far easier from there if needed :th:

Right, got us a spot. They are only using the furthest camping field today, using the usual one as parking this year.

As you enter the camping field, look right and you'll see my car. The Gazebo is also plastered with "Renevape" as it's the one I had left over from my vaping company :laughing

Great show! Just a shame about the weather!

Just like to thank Jay for all the time and effort you put in bud :th:
Show wouldn't be the same without your efforts.

Got pics loading up now, took us ages to get home as a chemical tanker had rolled near Grantham :no:

Thanks for all the hard work Jay getting the stands sorted. Glad I never had the spoon of Z. Those sausages were ace though and so was the ginger beer ;)

Thanks guys :th:

Great show, great company as usual. Decidedly quieter from us this year but I think the wind dampened everyone a bit.

The "Z" sauce was actually gorgeous but man.... That burn! That was relentless for a good 15 minutes. I'd probably do it again though, the rush was epic from that. I've got a good batch of those sausages left for German Vs Jap and JAE so plenty to go round. Proud of them, they tasted so much better than last year :th:

Sorry I shot off early on Sunday. I'd reached that point where I had enough of the wind, combined with severe hay fever and I wanted to spend a bit of time with the family before heading back to work.

Time to start sorting my last show of the year. I don't make life easy on myself, do I? :laughing

Haha, that was one of the best reactions to a Chilli sauce I've seen for a while....

To be fair though, it didn't smell great :laughing

I quite enjoyed it on my burger, it had a very Smokey taste and a nice even burn. Your Z tasted great but I used it too sparingly to get some good heat. I'd seen the videos...lol

It wasn't that hot lol - just a different sauce to something like Jay's Z or the Dragons Blood (which was insane) lol - ask the other Gaz! :laughing

Agree with Tallboy, those sausages with the mayo were absolutely spot on. Not too hot, but hot enough and damn tasty at the same time with lots of flavour :th:

And you lot never tasted any of the Schnapps. Shame on you!
