Good photos,  thanks for sharing them. I haven't been to Vapnartak for years so it's always nice to see what's going on.

To be honest I reckon it's one of the best shows in the UK. Just the right size to attract the good traders and not too big as to put a strain on getting to look around at everything (unless you do what I did and arrive too late!)

I've noticed on here and other fora that I missed a NWF game and an Anglo Zulu war game!! Two of my faves at present!
