We encountered a parade of more than 50 beautiful old lorries and trailers here in the Netherlands yesterday. Slow going as we had to keep pulling off the road as we were driving the other way but what a fantastic sight.

My Brother in Law has old Commercials and has a Show every weekend through the Summer period. Its well worth a day out, sometimes they are combined with Steam engines. For the Scots there is a huge one on the Showfield at Kelso which also has a Temporary Holiday Site at the same time. I cannot remember if it is CMC or C&CC as we had the motorhome on the field as exhibitors (I used to help out my BIL).
