Heatwave at DATP

After our sunny holiday it was time to end the week off with a trip to Bracknell for LTVs Dubs at the Park. With scorching temperatures predicted and knowing what the traffic can be like we set off early and rolled up the driveway to Easthampstead Park before the monster queues began.





We parked up under the trees by the club display and relaxed for a bit as the Dubs came in, we were soon joined by our poptopped twin van with Malcs and family.



Lily and I headed out for a wander, past the Kubel of Cordwallis and onto the side field. With a brief stop to chat to Alan and his fur family we headed for the side field. As we came to the icecream van it was decided that it was snack time so with a chocolaty mess in hand we headed back for a clean up!









Back at the Camper we feasted on bacon rolls and beer while nattering to a few fellow dubbers before attempting to look round again.







At the bottom of the field we found Sue and the Horse Rangers where Lilys half eaten apple was munched by Star before we carried on. The promise of a bouncy castle session saw us clear the bottom field in record time! The sun was still beating down and my little companion was flagging a bit despite the carrying and drinks.















Back at the Camper once more for drinks and a sit down, we borrowed Grens awning and chairs. A final walk round was needed so with Pab in tow we set out round a few vans before Lily decided it was home time.









Then with weary legs we set off home. Despite a few setbacks during the build up to the show, the orange crew pulled off another really good event with loads of great cars and traders. We never saw the bands or the MTB display, but the crowds around both showed a big hit.
