A few of us attended the annual Northampton Balloon Festival over the weekend.
I gotta admit, we did spend most of the day wetting our pants................we had the "privilege" of having a Ferrari owner turn up with his two prize assets, and ended up parking in the middle of our illustrious display of German engineering. They then spent their entire day "guarding" to two vehicles, which became too much for them so they asked the organisers to minetape their little piece of Italy...............

and this didn't work either, as the local kids decided that wasn't going to stop them opening the doors, and some totty sat on his bonnet for a photo shoot

oh how we chortled..........
Unfortunately, as it was too windy, the "balloon" festival turned into just a festival, as they wouldn't allow the balloons to fly.

..........nope, it didn't get off the ground.
A wonderful day - the weather held off, and we generated a huge amount of interest in the vehicles.
And some more piccies for you........
